Accidental Text Goes Viral, Supporting Family Seeking Treatment For Son

One woman sent a text to the wrong person, but received a great response

What was an accidental text to a father of six, has brought attention to the family’s GoFundMe page, in which they are raising money for their son, Kaizler, who is undergoing treatment for Leukaemia.

The father, Tony Wood, responded to the mistaken text with a witty response, attaching a photo of his family. Of course, their reaction was soon posted on Twitter.

The tweet has since received over 217,000 likes and has been shared more than 51,000 times.

What users didn’t know, was that this family had two members missing from the photo. Kaizler and his mum. Wood explained that they were not pictured in the photo as they were at chemo clinic. Mentioning they had a Facebook page, Prayers for Kaizler, documenting his fight, one user asked he link the page.

Not long after, Kaizler’s GoFundMe page was also posted.

Let’s hope this helps the Wood family reach their goal. Good luck little Kaizler!
