hi,I just found out about A.J. and everything and I just send my wishes to him and that he overcomes this. As for the tour, That's not much to worry about. The most important is health. I wish A.J. the best and I hope this rehab really helps him. I don't think this makes him less of a person or a performer. I think it's the fact that he is trying that counts. anyways, Good luck :) Love, LeighAnne

Well I am one of those people missing a concert, well until September. Being so excited and all and then to find out this.Alcholism runs in my family and I know how awful it is. I can only hope that AJ is strong enough to pull through this and he has all my prayes. I wish the group didn't have to go through this but it seems like all we can do is support them and hope that AJ can get his health back together.

When I heard that A.J. checked himself into rehab I was shocked. When I saw the sadness of Nick, Brian, Howie, and Kevin on TRL I couldn't do anything but cry. As I am writing this letter I am crying. I cried because one of the most important people in my life was sick. The Backstreet Boys mean the world to me and anything bad that happens to them makes me sad. I have so much respect for the 4 Backstreet Boys that came on TRL and told their fans that A.J. was sick and that he had checked himself into rehab. They could have told a lie but they stayed true to their fans and told them the truth. I also have so much respect for A.J. because he had admitted that he had a problem and wanted to fix it. He has so much bravery to tell the world that he had a problem. Hopefully this will show people that the Backstreet Boys are human beings and life isn't always glamorous like people precieve it to be. I hope this will encourage people who have these problems to seek help. I am so proud of those boys for sticking to their best friend and bandmate when he needs it most. I don't care what A.J. has done all I care about is that he is getting help. When I saw A.J. in his trailor singing the song he wrote I saw the pain in his eyes. A.J. is a strong person and I know he will get well. But for now all I can do is give my prayers to A.J., his family, and the rest of the boys. I love you A.J. and I can't wait till your back on stage doing what you love. And Nick I hope your hand heals soon. And I want to let you boys know you mean the world to me.

AJ: I know this must be a terribly tough time for you. I just wanted to thank you helping me to become a singer. You have the most amazing talent I have ever heard and hope and pray you find the strength and inspiration to continue sharing your gifts with all of us fans who love it. I was going nowhere until I heard about how you grew up and where you got. I am truly in debt to you and will continue to keep you in my prayers. I know this is just one of your millions of fans, but this is the smallest I can do to repay how much you've given to me. You will be in my prayers.

Dear ALEX:
i really like to help yourself but I am not just a simple fan, possibly you never read this but I want that you know that it is not important if type of problems you have here exists people who wants you love you and simply stay there for you always
I want that you know that for my you are more than this incredible man who appears and sings, that you are an incredible man with wonderful feelings, which you love to the life and you love what you do.For all these things and more you have been an inspiration to continue my lifei Really like to be able to help more than with only these words. Only think a moment about the wonderful mother that you have, in the boys (Kevin, Nick; brian, Howie) and in all the girls that to diary they think about you (including me to my) .
I know that you are in this problem because of your depression for the death of your grandmother, but think that(that) wherever that she are , it down extremely happy and proud of you and that this beautiful woman not like she that see you so sad. Also I am sure that this she it together with Jesus and now it is one of his beautifuls angels and always this taking care of you and your family. Possibly you do not remember me but we knew ourselves when your and the BSB came to Mexico with the tour black and blue, when I knew that permissions dedicates myself learn groins only to be able to speak with you and could not I saw you and I remain only meeting, I impress myself seeing in your look so many sincerity and the beautiful thing that they are your feelings.
All the girls said that I was mad because if they look at you closely only kissed you and I the only thing that i wanted to ask if you wanted to have a sincere friendship. And even I say it to you if you look for a sincere and loyal friend it does not matter if only you need that someone listens to you I can help you and you know because, simply because that you are incredible and you do not think that I say all that only because you are A.J of the BSB's but for the interesting and beautiful Alexander James Mclean F. that this inside you.I that possibly you are not interested in this but remembers that we all are human and sometimes we makes mistakes but we are never alone someone never needs you like never before, someone wants your love, only you have open the door again and light the light of the happiness. ok this is only a small part of everything what i wish to say to you, I expect it I (help) a bit in your rehabilitation, you can do it just decide now.Just remember this words that you said and i adopt of this way "MUSIC IS LOVE ,LOVE IS MUSIC, MUSIC IS OUR LIFES AND YOU LOVE YOUR BEATIFUL LIFE" pleas edo it for the music and your life.
I like have news of you promptly and to know that these perfectly well,I hope you could return to Prompt Mexico. Just remember that you are in my prayers every night, your and the Boys.
With the whole fondness of the world sincerely yours Elisa Anaid God bless you forever
be happy and smile

Dear AJ,
I know u'll probably never even look at this entry, but I just wanna get all this out. Everytime i think of this i just wanna cry. watching the other 4 on TRL crying and comforting all us fans just made me wanna get up and go up and hug everyone, u, Nick, Howie, Brian, and Kevin. As much as everyone wants to push all of this out of their head, I just wanna know, will you be ok? Will you get back on the road and make all us laugh at your jokes, stare in your eyes, sing with you? Everyone loves you, no matter how much they wanna admit they don't. This IS a big situation, depression IS a big deal, my mom has it, and it's no piece of cake. but anyone who can come right out and say "Guys I have a problem" is a true man. Thank you so so so much for acknolaging it. Every night I pray for you and I know every BSB fan does just before they go to sleep.
KTBSPA 4eva and eva,
Nikki

I was never a really big BSB fan, but seeing the interview on TRL and seeing Nick crying as well as the whole group sad I started feeling sad. AJ was my favorite member and I'm really glad he stepped up and told the rest of the guys that he needs help. I want to tell everyone that really cares to pray for AJ to come through this. He's so amazing and I wish him the best of luck.

Even though I know Alex will most likly never see this I just wanted to say like everyone else here how proud I am of you. That takes a real man to admit a problem like this. I didn't see the other guys on tv talking about this I just found out, and when I read what was going on I couldn't help but cry. I got right down on my knees and prayed
to Christ to pick you up and carry you through this. I have also been diagnosed with clinical depression, anxiety, panic attacks, and bulimia so I to have been there. The thing that can get you through it is God, talking, crying, and exercise. Keep things around you that you love, such as happy pictures, flowers, and your little puppy J.D. will help. What ever you do don,t think about the fans we are fine and understand. Don,t think about the other guys, friends or family. You don't need to please them right now. The only thing that matters is you. You getting better will make everyone happy and that is all we want for you, not for us. You can't beat this in 30 days you need more time don't push it PLEASE. The tour does not matter to us near as much as you. We Want to see all you guys on stage happy and healthy. People have had those tickets in their hands for months and they can wait longer if they are impatient and start to complain just say screw them. To end this long letter I want to say just get better that all we want for you. You are in my prayers and many other peoples and with so many fans that you all have, and all praying for you, God can't ignore them so I promise just keep your faith in the Lord and all of our prayers will be answerd for you. Love ya sweetie get well soon.
Love,
Melissa xoxoxoxox
P.S. It does get better you just need time I promise. I,ve been there I know.
