Wrong Number Text Raises $$ for Kid with Cancer

Sydney Uselton, from Tennessee, recently tried to text her friend a photo of a dress she was thinking of buying for her high school formal, but she accidentally sent it to the wrong phone number.

A Guy from Tennessee by the name of  Tony Wood also received it,  and instead of just ignoring it, he texted a photo back of his kids all giving the dress a big thumbs up.

One of Sydney’s friends ended up posting screenshots on Twitter, and it went viral. When Tony found out his five kids in the picture were suddenly Internet famous, he posted a shout-out to his four-year-old son, Kaizler.  Kaiser is the only one of Tony’s six kids who wasn’t in the photo, because it turned out he was at a clinic receiving Chemo treatments.

Because of the pics, someone online found a GoFundMe page that Tony created back in 2015 to help pay for Kaizler’s treatments.  You Guessed it, the page also went viral! The original goal he set was $10,000,a nd last we checked, the total was more than $40,000!
