Hi my name is Brittany Gagne and my best friend Carol Johnson has a disease. This disease causes her skin to 'fall off' so she is living a very hard life. I've never met her, but we've bonded over the internet and we became great friends. I have seen pictures of her and it just breaks my heart. I tell her everyday that I will get the money to cure her and that we would one day meet. Unfortunately, I'm only 13 years old and I can't get a job. I have asked all of my friends and family to help me out but they all say the same thing, "If you need some money you don't need to make up a stupid story like that" They simply won't believe me and think that it's all a hoax. This I don't understand and because they won't believe me my friend is going to...die and if i could take her place I would, but it's impossible. But then i got an idea, there may be hope after all, i thought maybe, just maybe there were people out there who could help me out by sending me some money even if it's just a dollar. Maybe then my friends and family will realize I'm telling the truth. So here is my request, when you have an extra dollar or two, could you put it in an envelope and put on the following address then mail it.You might think one dollar won't make a difference but, it will you'll help save my freinds life and for that I give you a million THANK YOU'S. If you do one good thing in your life please make this the one. Also do me another favour, tell your friends about this and get them to do the same thank you with all of my heart is all i can say The address is listed below:
