How Justin Bieber has affected my life

This year has been the toughest year of my life, In January I started having problems with my stomach. I was in a lot of pain and my colon was not functioning right. I have always had medical problems but this was different. I can handle a lot of pain, but this had me shaking and hyperventilating, it was unbearable. My mom called my doctor and he said he wanted me admitted in the morning. I was so scared, I had not been admitted in years, I was worried something terrible was going on, So many thoughts were running thru my head. I knew it would be best for me to go in, I had to for my health. In my medical history I have had problems, but nothing was as scary as this to me, I have caudal regression syndrome, 1 in 200K are born with this syndrome. I also have scoliosis and kyphosis which means my spine is shaped like an S but also a C, yet god has blessed me because I don’t slouch to bad, and I have never had to where a brace or have had to have back surgery. I’ve had 13 surgeries, My right leg is shorter then my left, I was born with one kidney, and I have many more medical problems. But I can carry on thru my faith, family and friends. When I was born doctors told my parent’s id never walk, I proved them wrong. I have been in more then 10 musicals, I took gym and dance for many years and I walk everyday. It does hurt a bit because I have no cartilage within the bones in my feet, but I don’t know anything different so its not that bad☺ Now back to this year, I was admitted the next morning and around this time it was February ( as many of you know NEVER SAY NEVER MONTH!) I had my little preview pass for my town and I was really worried I would not be able to see the movie, I received my kit on Christmas, so I had been wearing my never say never bracelet since. Justin inspires me because of how far he has come and because of what he does for people. How he cares about us so much. How he works so hard to make us proud. I know he will never stop loving us, and we will never stop beliebing. It’s amazing How he always wants to make us smile. ☺ <3 Doctors had me on a clear liquid diet for a week, it sucked because there was always food ads on TV in my room. Everyday it was getting harder. We just wanted an answer, everyday I would look at my never say never bracelet for hope. Finally they did a small procedure and figured out my colon had shut down, This was shocking news for me, I didn’t know this was possible, they didn’t know what they could do so they sent me home. I was happy to be home but I wanted an answer, The next night was terrible, the worst yet, I was up all night crying in pain, I was so scared. The next day I was feeling better, I called my mom and asked if we could maybe go down to L.A the next day for the Never Say Never premiere, She said probably not because of how I was doing, I tried to convince her I was fine. Later that night one of my best friends Hannah (@oohlalahannah ) called me and said this “Hey so I just won tickets to the never say never premiere and were going!!” I started crying, I was so happy this was so AMAZING! I just couldn’t believe this. I was in shock, I replied “OH MY GOSH THANK YOU THANK YOU” I went to sleep that night with a huge smile on my face. We drove down to L.A the next day, though I felt sick and was in pain. This was going to be the BEST day ever! I hoped we would meet Justin but I knew the odds were not very strong. We got down, went to our seats in the stands to watch the PURPLE carpet and watched as celebs started arriving. This was so exciting! Justin walked by us and I touched his hand and I started shaking, this was crazy. Later on we met Scooter, Alfredo, Jon chu, Kenny, Pattie, and many more! The movie was so amazing. I forgot all my pain and I was just having a great time☺ We didn’t get to meet Justin but it was still amazing. We went home and couldn’t help but be happy. We made some amazing belieber friends that night, & It was a night I would always remember<3 A few weeks later things started getting bad. I couldn’t keep any food down. Everything I tried to eat came up. I wanted to give up so bad. On nights where I just wanted to cry and give up, I would watch videos of Justin and just smile, I dreamed about getting better and what it would be like, everyone told me that it would be over soon I wanted to believe that but I just couldn’t. It had been a few months since this all started and I was loosing hope. I always wanted Justin to follow me on twitter and one day that was really tough, I almost gave up. Then, JUSTIN FREAKING BIEBER FOLLOWED ME ON TWITTER! I was crying so hard. I screamed and ran around and I was on cloud nine. It was like heaven. It gave me so much hope it was amazing. Even though I couldn’t keep anything down, I was still smiling because of Justin. As months went on they admitted me again. I was throwing up 19 times a day. Everyone was so worried I wouldn’t make it. In a way, I didn’t feel or think I could go on like this. I knew I couldn’t give up though, I had to stay strong, for my friends, my family, my parents and for Justin(though he doesn’t know I exist. I’m still one of his beliebers<3) I was admitted into the hospital and they found a tumor behind my septum. %1 get it. It was only fluid filled & It can not cause cancer (thank god) ,but it does cause vomiting and stomach problems. They removed that and I stopped throwing up for a while! Food still hurt my stomach but I could keep it down! I had so much faith and hope that this would all be over soon. A few months later and it was October, I was throwing up again, everything. It gets to the point where it is so hard to keep going. You think “why would god put me thru this?” and “why do I have to go thru this? Why am I still alive?” I have figured out that god knows I can make it. He wouldn’t have me go thru this if He thought I couldn’t make it. He wants me to share my story and to inspire people. I wont give up. I Will Never say Never. I have to have faith and know that God will help me thru this. They’re still searching for answers, but I know someday this will all be resolved. But, for now I just have to make it thru each day. I still am throwing up several times a day, But, every time I throw up (sometimes more then ten times a day) I brush my teeth with my Justin Bieber music tooth brush and I can’t help but smile: ) One thing I strive for is that I want to make people happy. It’s a goal to make people smile everyday. Being alive is a huge blessing. I would never want to give that up. It’s one of my BIGGEST dreams to meet Justin. If you guys could help me meet him, I wouldn’t even know how to thank you. It..It would mean the absolute world to me. He is a hero to me, He can make me smile when no one else can, He is so inspiring to me. I have been a HUGE belieber for over a year, Yes I know, not as long as most, but that’s not what matters, what matters is that I will always be there for him, and never leave him<3 thank you so much for reading<3 Love , Remington Lee AKA ( @HeyItsRemi)
