Subject: Please help me Eric.  Please brother.

Eric,

      Hello sir.  I have an immune disorder.  Its called Neuro-Behcet's disease.  Its very bad and its taking its toll on me.  I saw your video on utube and its my story as well.  I am 28 years old and I have done alot.  I was a Marine for four years.  I volunteered at ground zero for 2 years and I fought in Iraq for three years.  During all this I managed to get a degree in criminal justice.  Bachelors.  It was very difficult but I did it.  Im afraid I need help now and dont know where to turn.  Please help me.  Im desperate.  My illness just recently attacked my brain and spine.  The docs have put me on cytoxan and heavy prenisone.  You know how that is.  I just want my life back like you got yours back.  Your story is incredible.  I been helping people all my life for the last 10 years, but Im afraid I cant do that anymor e.  I want to.  I was scheduled to go into the DEA after my time in Iraq   but now cant run or hold my urine.  The doctors have tried bt no improvement.  I live alone and my mom helps take care of me now.  SHe is very caring and loving but this is taking its toll on her too.  She is possibly suffering more than I am watching her only son come back in one piece from Iraq and get dealt this blow.  Im not asking to be a millionaire or anything extravegant,  I just want my life back like you got yours back.  Please help me Eric.  You know where Im at and you know my desperation.  Please Eric, please help me.  I wanna live a normal and decent life, thats all.  Please call me so I can talk to you.  Maybe you have information that can turn this all around for me and make me the happiest man on earth. 

Please Eric I beg you.  Help me.
