:48:06
So, I'm in the hospital-- again.
:48:09
Called Sheree a couple of times.
:48:13
She's bored.
:48:15
She's depressed because I'm sick.
:48:18
Talking about all the losses
in her life...
:48:23
I guess,
'cause she thinks she's losing me.
:48:27
I don't know--
I keep coming in the hospital
:48:29
and everybody says I look okay,
everybody says I sound great,
:48:31
and I come into the hospital
and I feel like shit,
:48:33
and I think I'm dying.
Then I come into the hospital
:48:36
and I feel okay and I wonder
what I'm doing in the hospital.
:48:39
Then I go out of the hospital
and I feel like shit.
:48:42
On and on and on.
:48:45
"Dear, Mr. Flanagan,
:48:47
I'm a wish-granter
for the Make-A-Wish Foundation
:48:50
of Ontario, Canada.
:48:52
I am presently
in the process of granting awish
:48:54
for 17-year-old Sara.
:48:56
Sara has CF with serious lung disease.
:48:59
Her prognosis is not very good.
:49:01
The hospital where she is being treated
has referred her
:49:04
to our foundation for a wish.
:49:06
When I contacted Sara about a wish,
:49:08
she knew immediately what she wanted--
:49:10
it is something she has always wanted--
it is to meet you."
:49:13
The book, "Supermasochist," kind of--
:49:15
that's the only thing I had of him--
:49:17
was almost like my Bible.
:49:19
I couldn't go through a page
without crying.
:49:21
And everybody thought
that was completely warped--
:49:24
looking at some guy with
all these pierces through his penis,
:49:28
and I start crying,
:49:29
- "Oh God, I can't believe it!"
- She did.
:49:31
Everyone was like, "What do you see
when you look at this man?
:49:34
What do you see?"
I carried it with me everywhere.
:49:37
Then I got really sick in--
what was it, July?
:49:40
- The end of April.
- The end of April.
:49:42
- Then I went in the hospital.
- She was on 100% oxygen,
:49:44
and wasn't getting enough oxygen.
:49:46
Her lips were blue.
Her hands and feet were blue.
:49:49
She really was... very, very sick.
:49:52
And I thought I was gonna die,
and I kept telling everybody.
:49:55
And they were saying, "No, no, no,"
:49:56
'cause no one had told them
that I was dying.
:49:58
And I have a social worker
through the clinic,
