Let me start off by saying my wife and I love your show. We watch your show everynight as apart of our QT (quality time) time. But the real reason for my letter to you is Tyra I need your help to make my wife and I dream come true. My wife wants to have a tubal ligation reversal. She wants so badly to have another baby. She got her tubes tied when she had her last bundle of joy that is now about to turn three. She say she did it because she was tired of dead beat dads, but if she knew she was going to meet a man like myself and get married to him she would have never got her tubes tied. I met my wife three months after she had her baby girl, and the man I am I step in this Childs life and became her father and her other daughter also but her baby has never seen of heard from her real father. The only person she know as her father is me and that’s the way we will keep it since we ended up getting married. But My wife and have been married for almost a year now and we have talked and decided that this is something she really wants to do is have another baby. As her husband I want to make my wife happy but we have done the research and this is a very expensive surgery. It is anywhere from 4,000 to 7,000 dollars. Money we can not seem to start saving because of the need to take care of our family we have now. We have even looked for insurence that will cover this and have no found any. This is a dead end street Tyra I need your help to make my wife and myself dream come true. My wife get so depressed when she see people who are pregnant and when she sees a newborn baby because she wants a baby so bad please Tyra help us please If I could I would get down on my knees and beg you for your help I would do any thing to make my wife happy and make her dream come true and yes I have tried and thought that I could be macho man and say I can beat thru those tubes and make a baby but I have came to face the fact that I can't bust thru and I need help with this. If she gets this done she could conceive a child within the next month after the procedure. So Tyra please please help us help me make her dream and our dream come true please Tyra
From a loving Husband,
Christopher F.

Hi. My name is Lisa. For the past four years, I have gained around 50 pounds. For the most part, I am healthy and I have great skin and hair. But, I've fallen into a rut! I'm working fewer hours than I would like at my current job, thus leaving me with lesser monetary means. Also, I am currently in the Louisiana Army National Guard (one weekend per month). And, having extra pounds inhibits me from moving up to the next pay grade/rank.

Broke, bored, educated and depressed!

I wish for help with my constant, personal struggle with my weight and contributing habits

Thank You

Tyra, I'm turning 40 this year. My wish is not for me, but for a special person in my life, my dad. Even though he related to me by marriage or blood, he will aways be my dad. My mom and him divorced when I was around 7 yrs old and he is always there for me. A few years ago when my mother past, he was one of the first people to jump up and help us kids get through that dramatic time. When he was approximately 18 yrs old he had a tractor roll over him and break both of his lower leg bones. I watched him play sports until his late twenties when his body could no longer take it. My wish for him is to actually drive in a Nascar, a passion he has passed to me. He doesn't travel much and does not see much of me anymore since I moved over 700 miles away. He was the first person who taught me the importance of simple mechanics in case of an emergency so I would not be stranded. By the way, you're great, and I love the fact you try and give to those who need help. Love ya--Lisa

hi,my name is Kyanna Barth and i am a 12 year old girl in lorain OH. My dream like every other girl my age is to meet Chris Brown.I have his CD and i LOVE it. Chris Brown And i are like a 7-10 year age diference. I have always wanted to be his personal friend or even be one of the girls that he talks about in his songs. With my moms thyroid cancer i find myself sad alot thinking about what could happen to her. When i feel like that i put on his cd and i sing along and sometimes i even cry. His voice makes me think of the positive things. I would love to get front row seats to 1 of his concerts but with all thats going on money wise, its not possible. I wish that my dream could come true.
Thanks For Listening XOXO

Dear Tyra hello my name is kathlee henderson from Huntsville,Al. I have a 3 yr old and one on the way. Im living on the system right now and really can't do anything right now because of the baby I'm carrying. I've been so sick lately. I can't really get no help from the father right now because he's so selfish and i don't have time for that right now i need someone to help so i can have a healthy baby and pregnancy. What im really getting to is that I love to model I watch ANTM every season and just love it. My mom thinks I'm a dissapointment now because i got pregnant and that My career is over, but i told her i know plenty of people with more than two children and they are successfull. Why can't I. I love my mom my child and the one I have on the way and one thing that hurt me the most is not being able to take care of them. My little boy made me cry today because he said he wanted to stay with his dad and not with me he said mom i can't stay with you I want to stay with my daddy. His dad lives with his mom but it's much nicer than where i live and i just want to be able to do for him like that. I want to put my modeling skills, my beautiful skin, my high cheek bones, and my fabulous walk to use and with your help i believe i can fly as R.Kelly once said. Please here me out Tyra U could help make my dream come true not only for me, but for my children also. If u are interested in what i just wrote please contact me. Love Always Kathlee Henderson Your Tru Fan

Hey Tyra, I bet with your schedule you'll most likely not get to mine.
I am 19 years old and a stay at home mom. My husband is in the United States Navy.
When I was a freshman in highschool I wanted to be a writer, I've been told I have a good talent for it.
But I got into the wrong crowd and my dream drifted away...I no longer cared about it. Since I started dating my husband I got back into writing.
Now that I'm married with a little one, my husband has been pushing me to chase my dream again.
I have over 90 finalized poems, but can't get published and/or don't have the money to publish myself or get with Authorhouse. I'm also writing a book. I would love to get published one day, you have the power to help me. I don't want to be rich, just get my words out there.
Here is an example of my writing, its a new one I wrote for my 4month old son: "My Little Wonder"
My little wonder,
How god made you...
From your daddys feet,
To your baby blues,
You amaze me,
In everything you do.

You've gotten so big,
Since you were born,
You've changed so much too.

I still can't believe,
That you are here.
I thought you'd never come,
So many problems,
Before I had you,
First you were late,
Then the fever too.
But once I saw you,
Here and safe,
My life felt complete.

My little wonder,
My miracle too,
You're just like your daddy.
Your stubborn like him too.
Just know like your daddy,
I will forever love you.

Hey Tyra,

First and foremost i would like to take this opportunity to thank you for taking the time out of your hectic day to read my comment. My dream is a simple dream but has much behind it. See I have had a troubling life full of a drug adicted father,being homeless, low self esteem, molested as an 8 year old child, abused,and many other obstacles. However i have never let any of those situations break my spirit. I have always looked to the positive side and recently many things began to look up! I have a wonderful step father, a hard working mother, two amazing brothers,we live in a wonderful home, high self esteem, and i found the love of my life at a wal mart! lol Even though all the things i just listed are amazing..i cant pretend to hide what is going on..even more recently my step father lost his job two weeks later he was hit by a truck when he was taking a bicycle ride with a friend of his then i lost my job 2 weeks after the accident then my brother lost his job and so did my brothers girlfriend who lives with us. My mother was the only one left in the house with a job and had been providing for us until my brother and brothers girlfriend got a job. and i just yesterday got a job at a warehouse working graveyard shift so my baby brother can still see me during the day. my step father is still struggling to find a job and has been unemployed for 7 to 8 months but we have all come together as a family to fix the broken pieces. my mother is close to filing for bankrupcy because we cannot afford to live in the house of her dreams. I feel horrible everyday when i see her come home at 8pm or sometimes even 10pm after leaving the house at 4:30am. she has no time to enjoy the home she is working for and is even considering taking a second job. my mother is sooooo amazing and i will be lucky if i could grow up to be like her someday. she pushes me to continue schooling to become a psychologist someday and i always tell her that when i do i will pamper her and help her out with everything she needs. SO TO GET TO THE POINT OF THIS LONG COMMENT IS MY DREAM..WHICH IS TO FIND SOMEWAY TO PAY OFF THIS HOME THAT WE ALL ARE WORKING SO HARD TO KEEP BECAUSE IT IS MY MOMS DREAM HOME. SHE IS THE GREATEST MOM IN THE WORLD AND THINKING OF HER NOW WHILE I AM TYPING THIS MESSAGE IS LITERALLY BRINGING TEARS DOWN MY FACE. IF I COULD HAVE THIS DREAM COME TRUE I WOULD GET ON MY KNEES AND THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART. THANK YOU AGAIN FOR LISTENING. GOD BLESS YOU.
