- description: My wife saw this young woman compete in the 2005 Miss USA Pageant, where she represented Wisconsin. She even took home the Congeniality award, and was clearly loved by the other contestants. In the years since this adventure, she's battled an illness and is now in the final stages of her young life. Melissa Consin Young has fought a brave battle to live and her greatest inspiration to do so, is her little boy Jack. As her story has spread throughout the country, people have been inspired to pray for Melissa and Jack and support them in any way possible. This includes me. In just over an hour, I came up with this melody in honor of Melissa and Jack. I would like to thank my friend Ali and my wife Jennifer for sending me some 'words from a mother' that went into this song. Being moms, they knew what to say. I would also like to thank Tim Lee for helping me finish the piano part of the song. In just one day, this song came to light. It was written and recorded in a living room on a mac computer, and set to a video from Melissa's facebook pictures. As a matter of fact, this was the very first time that I sang through the song, leaving it raw with no mixing or mastering. We felt because of the timing, that it was more important to get the song to Melissa for inspiration than to be perfectly recorded. Please support Melissa and Jack through prayer and the link below. In Melissa's Words: "My illness was caused by a doctors medical negligence. The Mayo Clinic probably said it best calling it "dust swept under the rug, preventable, careless, and a total disregard for human life by a medical professional." My husband and I were expecting our first and only child. We were over the moon . During my pregnancy I became very ill. I couldn't stand without passing out. Just lifting my head was too much. I begged my doctor to help me over and over. My husband would carry me into his office. I was begging him saying I'd sleep there on his floor til he helped me. I told him over and over again for months that I think I'm dying. His response was " it's your first pregnancy you look great." He failed to hear me or even run simple blood work. 3 weeks before my due date I passed out trying to get to the phone. My husband found me & called 911. At the hospital they induced my labor. Blood tests showed my liver and kidneys had shut down. Because of the prolonged suffering and trauma I went into complete autonomic failure. The autonomic nervous system is the part of the brain that controls heart rate, blood pressure, body temperature, respiration, digestion and most vital organs. Mine shut off like a light switch and there is no way for doctors to manipulate that part of the brain to tell it how to work again. My heart is really struggling. After a number of unsuccessful heart procedures and no chance at getting a new heart because the message is coming from my brain. My heart is now in the condition of an 88 year old woman." Melissa is in the fight of her life. Never did I think I would even have to write about this story - much less, have it come from Melissa. I competed with Melissa at Miss USA in 2005. I can hear her voice and her laugh as I type this. She was the girl you wanted to be around. She just made each day better. I will never forget the moment she won Miss Congeniality. She had tears in her eyes as she accepted her award from Nancy O'Dell and Billy Bush - almost as if she couldn't believe she had won it. We were thrilled though, because even in that moment, she proved again, how truly deserving she was and is. I can't give Melissa more time. I can't fix the receptors in her brain and I cannot give her a new heart. The good Lord knows that if I could find a way, I would! All I can do is pray and find a way to help her little boy, Jack. So this fund is for Jack. As a parent, there are a lot of struggles and worries that we consume ourselves with. Melissa is enduring more than I can ever imagine. We often worry about our children's future. Please help me ease this stress for Melissa, as we strive to fund a college scholarship for her son Jack. Like Melissa, we can Be Brave for Jack. - help Melissa and Jack visit: http://fundanything.com/en/campaigns/be-brave-for-jack Song and Music: JC Fisher and Tim Lee Lyrics: JC Fisher, Ali Coleman, Jennifer Fisher JC is part of the music group "The Texas Tenors"... for more information on their music visit (www.thetexastenors.com) Forever : Before I go..
