Dear A.J.,
I wanted to let you know that I love you and pray to God you come through this 110%. I want to make sure that you know that I think no less of you then I did before. In fact it took a real man like you to admit you had a serious problem and needed to get help and I am really proud of you for that. I'm being serious about this, when I saw TRL and all 4 of your brothers sitting looking so upset I was in tears. You have 4 wonderful brothers that God gave you, and they will be with you until they day you die no matter what happens. i know this may sound weird, but hearing this my heart sunk and I started to cry because it felt like this happened to close member of my family. US true BACKSTREET FANS will be behind you till the end. You have millions upon millions of extended family all over the world and I don't think you could ask for much more!!! Don't worry about your career because I know Backstreet Boys is here to stay!!! Make sure you have some McDonald's because I know it will cheer you up!!!
I love you and I will keep you in my prayers!!!

aj, this is a hard time and i know how it feels. it takes a lot longer than 30 days to get over depression, but you are in my thoughts and prayers. with the support group you have of family, friends and fans, i have no doubt that you will pull through. you've got a lot of love flowing towards you right now, and that is one of the most improtant things to remember. love is real no matter who it comes from, whether it is a fan or a loved one. we all love you. and we wish you the best.

I admire you for your strength to admit that you have a problem and that it needs to be corrected. I have been in tears since hearing about you on TRL. I'm just glad that you have four brothers who are there to help you through this, and I know that they will always come through for you in the future.
Love and get well,

When i first heard about your Deppression and alcohol problems i was worried. Then i hear about you admiting yourself to a rehab which made me very proud. You are VERY strong to be able to admit yourslef and admitting to yourslef you had a problem. But i hope you get much much better so you can go back to doing what your love... Singing. You are a big insperation now not only with your music but the way you handle things. Now if i told you that i was only 12 years old would you'd never beleive how much you inspire me probably but you really do. Well i'll remember to keep you in my prayers and i hope you get much much better. lots of love,
Jessica
