Keepin' It N Sync with...
Okay, first off. This is a section asking for your help. I'm about to tell you my story and I need your help. And this is a very serious thing to. Okay, My name is Jami and I'm 18. When I was 10 and in the fifth grade I was diagnosed with a kidney disease. Don't ask me to spell it 'cause I can't. I do know that the short name for it is mpgn and it was type 1. Well, I've been really sick a few times since then and I've seen more of the ICU then I'd ever want to admit. This year, the second semester of my senior year of high school,I became really sick. I missed most of third quarter...pretty much Feb. 1 to April 16 with a few hospital stays before that. I had surgery Feb. 1st to have a catheter placed so that I could start dialysis. Every night I have to be home by 10 pm to do this and I have to stay attached to this little machine. On June 17th I'm scheduled to have a kidney transplant. This is one of the scariest things I have ever had to face. Well, around December I found out I could get a wish through the Make-A-Wish foundation of Iowa. I already had tickets to the May 4th concert in Moline, IL so I wished that I could have 7 backstage passes, hotel accomadations and I wanted to spend the day with 'N Sync. Well, I got 2 backstage passes, 4 closer tickets and 2 hotel rooms. So I at least got to meet them. But that wasn't all I wanted. See, the thing is, their music has helped me through alot of the pain and stuff. Now, you might not believe me or see how that can be, but trust me. And it brought me together with my best friends. The Way I express myself is through songs. I want so much to be able to really talk to them. That's where y'all come in. Do you know them, have contacts...I really would like to meet them. It's so incredibly important to me. And that's not all. My friend Lori has a story to. I can't tell it all, because that would be an invasion of her privacy. Anyhow, recently a good friend of her's passed away after a long battle. She stuck with him through everything and he wanted so badly to have a picture of her and Joey together when he died. Well, unfortunately he passed on before she could do that. But now she's determined to get that picture taken. And I'm hoping someone out there will be able to help us. And please, don't write bogus letters saying you know them when you don't. I am opening myself up to y'all in a big way and I'm trusting y'all with alot. So, if you do, please help. Please. Write me at the addy below. And thank you.
