What the fact-checkers found
This chain letter has been spread around the internet since the late 1990s.
The email is false, and the Make-A-Wish foundation has a longstanding policy of not participating in chain letter campaigns.
The text of the chain letter typically reads as follows:
Hi, my name is Amy Bruce. I am 7 years old, and I have severe lung cancer from second hand smoke. I also have a large tumor in my brain, from repeated beatings The doctors say I will die soon if this isn't fixed, and my family can't pay the bills. The Make A Wish Foundation, has agreed to donate 7 cents for every name on this list. For those of you who send this along, I thank you so much, but for those who don't send it, what goes around comes around. Have a Heart, please send this.
