Thankgoodness that you are getting help and you can return as happy as possible I know that life can be hard and getting through it takes alot of energy but oyu can get through this and everybody is 110% behind you. I too live with my mother and grandmother and live life without a dad, One thing that could help is talking about to your dad about how you feel about him and not having him around and having him re-enter your life. It could help you. GET WELL SOON. Frances.

Dear Alexander, if it's true that you've fall in depression, also if it's silly to tell you that I'm sorry, I wish you just this, take your time to think on what you really want, try not to appear but to be what you are, just know that to get better depends just on you. Find the strenght in yourself...you've got it...that's my best wish... Sincerely AMY

AJ - Thousands of people (fans and peers) are including you in their thoughts and prayers, hoping you emerge from this stronger and happier. Thousands. Amazing, when you think about it, isn't it. Take comfort and strength in the knowledge that we all love and support you through this time, and I have no doubt that with the love of your family, friends and 'brothers', you'll be back real soon....larger than life. To Nick, Howie, Kevin, and Brian...your frankness and honesty to the fans, along with your intense support for AJ is amazing, and makes me all the more proud to be a Backstreet Boys fan. Peace.

This is part of my letter that i'll send the BACKSTREET BOYS together with tons of other letters from poeple who you Boys gave them the hope to survive. " Here's alittle thing that happened to me to show that the BACKSTREET BOYS have always had the greatest impacton my life. It was the time IWTW released when i started misusing drugs, i was only 15 years old, this situation lasted for about 1.5-2 mounths, then i decided to do something to stop it cuz i know that what im doing is wrong. I didn't tell any one not even my mom, every time i was starving for drugs, i put in infront of me and play BSB on my tv. This way i took control of my condition without the help from any body, it was just me and Backstreet Boys." All i can say is that I love you so much,I believe in you and I recpect you now more than ever. AJ, I don't care if you take 30 days or 1year to get better, just get BETTER. Boys, take the time you need, we'll be waiting for you, but don't take so long. FDinally, always remember that whatever you do, you'll always have as army behind you back, supporting you, standing by your side, loving you and most important BEKIEVING in you. Love, summer

This is for you, AJ-Just P.U.S.H! A man was sleeping at night in his cabin when suddenly his room filled with light, and God appeared. The Lord told the man he had work for him to do, and showed him a large rock in front of his cabin. The Lord explained that the man was to push against the rock with all his might. So, this the man did, day after day. For many years he toiled from sun up to sun down; his shoulders set squarely against the cold, massive surface of the unmoving rock, pushing with all of his might. Each night the man returned to his cabin sore and worn out, feeling that his whole day had been spent in vain. Since the man was showing discouragement, the Adversary (Satan) decided to enter the picture by placing thoughts into the weary mind: "you have been pushing against that rock for a long time, and it hasn't moved." Thus giving the man the impression that the task was impossible and that he was a failure. These thoughts discouraged and disheartened then man. "Why kill myself over this?" he thought. "I'll just put in my time, giving just the minimum effort; and that will be good enough." And that is what he planned to do, until one day, he decided to make it a matter of prayer and take his troubled thoughts to the Lord. "Lord,"he said, I have labored long and hard in your service, putting all my strength to do that which you have asked me. Yet, after all this time, have not even budged that rock by half a milimeter. What is wrong? Why am I failing?" The Lord responded compassionately, "My friend, when I asked you to serve ME and you have accepted, I told you that your task was to push against the rock with all of your strength, which you done. Never once did I mention to you that I expected you to move the rock. Your task was to push. And now you come to Me with your strength spent, thinking that you have failed. But is that really so? Look at yourself. Your arms are strong and muscled, your back, sinewy and brown, your hands are callused from constant pressure, your legs have become massive and hard. Through opposition you have grown much and your abilities now surpass that which you have used. Yet you havent's moved the rock. But your calling was to be obedient and to push and to exercise your faith and truth in My wisdom. This you have done. Now I, My friend, will now move the rock." At times when we hear a word from God, we tend to use our own intellect to decipher what He Wants when actually what God wanted is just a simple obedience and faith in him. By all means, exercise the faith that moves mountains, but know that it is still God who moves mountains. When everything seems to go wrong... just P.U.S.H! When the job gets you donw...just P.U.S.H! When people don't react the way you think they should... just P.U.S.H! When people just don't understand you ... just P.U.S.H.! P= Pray U= Until S= Something H= Happens No one can go back and make a brand new start. Anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending. God didn't promise days without pain, Laughter without sorrow, sun without rain, But he did promise strength for the day, comfort for the tears, and light for the way. When something happens to you, good or bad, consider what it means. There's a purpose to life's events, to teach you how to laugh more or not to cry too hard. When you feel down because you didn't get what you want, lost something you really treasure, don't be sad or feel bad because God is always thinking of something better yo give you. Aj, this is just words of encouragement, for you, from me. I know you can get through all of these things happening. Just be strong and believe that you can overcome this. Best believe that you are always in our thoughts and all the fans are praying for you and your speed recovery. We are here behind you, ready to support you in everything, in ups and downs. Even if would take long before you could get back, we'll patiently wait even for longer than month, if it means seeing you back on stage as the guy you used to be, only stronger and better. Please remember, there are lots of people here in the world you care about you and there is one man above you always watches over you. My prayers are with you, I love you and the guys so much! Don't give up, be strong! You can do it!
