Dear Tyra,

I'm a 23 year old male that's writing to you in hopes that you will make my dream come true. I have a best-friend by the name of Latasha. She is a BIG Beyonce fan!! She loves everything about Beyonce.. She was even going to try out to be one of Beyonce's back up dancers when she was holding auditions, but she didn't have the proper transportation to make it to the auditions. Tyra, Can you please make my dream come true for my best-friend????

i have been trying to get my brother dental help for a long time now. His teeth are in desperate need of attention. It has become embarressing for my nieces and he tries to be a good dad but they don't want him to come to the school because of his teeth,I have tried to find him free clinics in CT but have not had much luck. Everyone tells me to forget about it but I don't think that people are that heartless to let him live this life of saddness. He used to smile a lot and talk now he does little of that. I find it sad that a great guy has to live the life of embarresment for his daugthers. He wanted to particpate in her play but she is considering quiting because he dad wants to help. He doesn't know that but she told it to me. How sad I thought to myself. I hope if anyone has anything to offer me out the as a suggestion for hope for him that would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Any clinics in CT or NYc would be of great help. kim

i want to fix my brothers teeth. They are horrible and he has been living with them for years. I cannot afford to fix them for him but he used to be happy and smile now he never does. He is embarresed and my nieces don't want him at school because they say it is embarresing to have a dad with bad teetth. He tries hard to be in their live but I feel bad when they reject him because of his teeth. I have tried to find free clinics to help him but I am having trouble.Dental doesn't fall under medical. I am afraid he will die from some sort of gum disease leading to his heart. If you have any suggestions on how to fix his teeth with a clinic in CT it would really help. thanks

Greetings Tyra,

On the behalf of my 8 year old son (only child) who watches your show and Nickolodeon like crazy, he approached me and asked if we could go on the Nickolodeon cruise? I know that I can't afford a enormous vacation such as that, but just to see him smile and mingle with other children will surely make me one happy mother.

Please if you could, or even find it in your heart to do, please, please, grant my child his first ever cruise vacation with the Nickolodeon crew before he returns back to school this Fall of 2009.

Lastly, my child is doing 'GREAT' in school and has dreams to become a Professional Judge someday.(Wow, That's his story and he's sticking to it!) If nothing else, please contact us as there is more to share.....

Thanks so very much Tyra along with your producers
for giving every one an opportunity to post their biggest wish. Hopefully this will be a dream come true for us.

Our fingers are crossed!
Live and let live.....

TYRA I HAVE BEEN IN MENTAL AND PHYSICAL ABUSE MOST OF MY LIFE. I SPENT ALMOST FIVE YEARS ON THE STREET. I LIVED IN POVERTY FOR ALMOST A LIFE TIME. IM NOW RECOVERED AND TRYING TO MAKE SOMETHING OUT OF MY LIFE. DEEP DOOWN IN MY HEART I HAVE ALWAYS WANTED A BEAUTIFUL DRESS. IM GETTING READY TO COMPETE IN A PAGEANT IN MY HOME TOWN IN MAY. I HAVE ALWAYS DREAMED OF BEING A MODEL ALL OF MY LIFE. I HAVE DONE SOME PART TIME MODELING. I BELEIVE THAT SOME DAY I WILL BE THE NEXT TOP MODEL. I PRAY EVERY NIGHT TO BE THE BEST. I HAD TWELVE CHILDREN NOW THREE AT HOME. I BELEIVE GOD HAS A PLAN AND SOMEHOW THIS LETTER IS TO YOU. PLEASE CONSIDER ME BEING ON YOUR SHOW. I WOULD LOVE TO TELL MY STORY. I KNOW IT WOULD INSPIRE MANY PEOPLE.

My name is mary and my biggest wish is to go to collage and become a Trama doctor it very important to me to help people.. I Always want to become a doctor and the only things that scares me is not making it.

Dear Tyra,
I have been watching your show for many years, and I love what you do for people. I saw this and just felt like i had to post something. I am a newly wed (in April) expecting mother (10 weeks) and my husband and I are very much in love. We have our struggles, but the thing we struggle with the most is financial issues. Four months after we got married my husband had an unexplained grand maul seizure. At the time we were just getting on our feet but didn't have insurance. Because of the hospital bills and required MRI and EEG appointments we now have over $5,000 of medical bills and he still has more appointments in a few weeks at the hospital. Also, my husband has been told by doctors that he can't work or drive for 6 months. The state won't help us with bills, he's unable to work and can't get disability coverage, and I'm unemployed. And we recently found out I'm pregnant. So more than anything I just want to get financially stable before the baby is born and all this is a constant stress of mine. More than anything I wish that we could have our medical bills paid off.If someone, anyone, would help us with our bills, it would be a miracle and would mean the world to us. So All I ask is if you chose to grant our wish in some way or form, it would mean everything to us and our future little one. Thank you Tyra.
Sincerely with love,
Sarah Beeson

Dear Tyra Banks

Love your show, i've always wanted to be a model but you know people can dream. I actually tried it once, but it didn't work out for me. But i felt like writing my one wish, maybe it will help me feel better because i want to write a book about my life one day and maybe i'll get to do that. Well i am 19 years old and my hole life my mother has worked and busted he but to make sure that i got what i wanted and need. My father is on drugs he has never acted right him and my mother have been divorced for a long time he is remarried. He has never helped me not one bit, i mean he works but crack has taken over his life, he is 56 years old and it seems like he would of grown up by now but he hasn't he is like me, i'm 19 barley making i want to go to college seems like i'm never going to make it there because life is so hard and we aren't poor but we are sure not rich and it seems like we're never going to get ahead. Every time i turn around and i'm sick and i have hospital bills that i can't pay, and i feel like if my father sraighted up and was able to help me cause he hasn't help me any, maybe if he would go to rehab or something, he has issues that i just don't understand. I mean i've had jobs and these jobs don't pay much and he wants me to help him pay his bills when i am struggling trying to pay my own, so that maybe in a couple years of so i can go finish school, If i had one wish i'd wish my father was a father!!

Hi Tyra, I know you have alot of people writing with their biggest wishes. I feel kinda bad posting mine because my wish might be a bit trivial compared to others. My wish is to have my family back together again. I am 32 years old a wife, mother to seven children and caregiver to my 87 year old father-in-law who has diabetes, prostate cancer and is blind. Presently, my husband lives in Chicago to support the family and myself, the children, and gramps live about four hours away from him. We hardly get to see each other, maybe once every couple of weeks. He works his tail off to support us and allow for me to stay home and care for the children and his father. We are financially strapped and cant afford to pay the bills half the time much less move to the suburbs of chicago to be near him as we all wish. We have looked for a house to rent (we are in no position to purchase with down payments needed and past bills due) and its so hard because no one wants to rent to a family of our size. So here I am with the children alone. Im so depressed I dont want to leave the house anymore. Im gaining weight rapidly, my face is breaking out. I cry alot and sleep even more when the kids arent around to see it. I have a hard time just doing day to day activities and if it werent for my babies I wouldnt be able to make it. Its tough doing this on my own and to make matters worse, One of our children has a genetic birth defect called Prader-Willi Syndrome and it is a difficult disorder to deal with. We managed to aquire another daughter who needed a family badly and she is five now but was born a crack baby so she has problems as well. Our ten year old has ADHD and behavior problems. I do the best I can to maintain. Im doing this all on my own so that my husband can stay in chicago to pursue his career. His company is number seven in the nation and he has a bright future there. Its hard for him to focus though because he has to worry about us here and he as I said before pays for everything and often is stretched thin working long hours and often seven days a week. Our story has so much more to it but I just dont feel comfortable posting it here. Tyra, our family barely has enough to make it, we have never been on a vacation, we shop at thrift stores, we struggle to keep food on the table. Yet, my husband does such a great job not letting the kids feel like they are poor. We live as if we are middle class I would say. OUr family wish is to be together in one house again. To not be seperated anymore so that I can go back to college by day and work at night when he is home to be with the kids. This would ease the burden off my husband and make everyone feel so much better. Thanks for your time.

Dear Tyra,
I have been watching your show from the begaininig I loved how in the begaining you honor your my with her wise advise, just as being a mom.I thought this young lady is blessed to have a wonderful mother that supported you but love you enough to be honest with you about your career. I feel in love with your mom and I miss her appearences and her moma advice.
I was writing you to introduce you to my mom. she has no ideal that I am writing you, however I think she has a story that need to be told.
My mother is a 68 year old Diva. She love to be the best dress in everything she attend, this is not a mid life crisses, This is my mom, She dress up to go to the doctor, Store, School, or just to liser family gathering, She is a true granny diva. She don't think she quite, but she love to be sharp. she even go to the hospital to do missionary work sitting with the sick and dying dress to the max.
However my mother is always thing of other and even though she is just a average mother she is always reaching out to help others, she has a heart of gold, and often go out of her way to help others, snd her children.
my mothers day wish for my mom is to give her a professional photo of her.
Now my mom is a little short red lady who has many illiness but with strong faith in God she just keep on keeping on. she need a little time away from Toledo so if you can just grant her a few moments of glory we here four children sevengrandchildren,and seven grategrandchildren would appreciate it if you would concider her as a special mothers day guest. Thank you for your time

Hi Tyra,
I know you get over one million comments every day but i just wanted to share mine with you. My biggest wish is to go to hollywood with my mom and brother to hang out with the stars and shop. My mom is suffering finacial and we dont get to do many things. I always wanted to go on a trip with my family to see what it's like. I really appreciate having the opportunity to post a comment on your website.

Hi Tyra,my wife and kids are big fans of yours. Being that this is a post of my biggest wish is to see my wife smile without covering her mouth.

Hello Tyra,
My biggest wish is to start a foundation much like one you have now. I want to be able to help the community not soley just the girls but the boys and the youth as a whole. I have been a community leader and I am looking to expand that. If possible I would love the opportunity to work closely with you and hopefully visit the camp you have.

Dear Tyra,
I have a big wish for a small item. First I want to tell you this is not for me, but for my husband. Brad works long hours (8am to 10pm) for the city and he never ever buys anything for himself. Just recently I lost my job for medical reasons and although I am searching, I am having no luck. We live check to check and we both attend college online to better our lives. Just recently (the last two weeks) someone had taken money out of our account and put us in the hole. My son (he is 14 years old) is starting high school for the first time on Monday so Brad (my husband) went and took out the payday advance checks to buy Luke his school clothes and supplies. Since Luke is big (6 foot 1 inch and 250 lbs) he needs clothes from the big and tall stores. Anyway, like I said, Brad really works hard to pay our bills and now with the check advances we will be losing $120 every two weeks and have to take the checks out all over again each time because we cannot pay them off and still maintain our school books, our rent, our electric, phone, gas, insurance, etc. So, my wish (yes, I am finally getting to that) is that Brad could pay off the check advances. Since I know that you cannot do that for him, I have a more achievable wish. Brad's mother died a few years ago and none of his sisters let him know when the memorial was. We had taken care of her for two years until she passed away (she had cancer) and then she was cremated and the memorial was to be in the summer where she was originally from (upstate NY). I would like Brad to be able to go where they sprinkled her ashes and say goodbye. I know that you have many wishes and you may not even be able to read them all and that is okay. Just being able to write this and let someone know how much I love my husband and how grateful I am that he takes care of us and tries so hard, makes me feel better. Tyra, I wish you love and grace from our Lord Jesus Christ for all you do in this world. You touch many people with loving kindness and teach others about strength and determination. God bless you for all you do.
Sincerely,
Robin

Hello Tyra,
I'm Hazel from Philippines and I am 24 years old. I am experiencing a really bad teeth. This started even before as a kid and until now. It's my terrible teeth. I really can't afford to have it done. I already have dentures but worst is that it seems like my teeth didn't stopped from being damaged. It's been hurting so much and turning into black then so sensitive. I can't smile or talk to people without covering my mouth. I am afraid I may not smell good or just simply of how my teeth appears. And now that I am married I am scared my Husband would find it uncomfty in the future. Please help me. I got this from my Mom and Dad too. Also they needed the teeth makeover too. Even my Dad his old and still suffering so much toothache. I want this to stop in our family and to just smile for the rest of our lives. Hope you can help us. I was really looking for someone to help me in getting this done. The problem has been forever. I don't want to have kids and then die with these tooth problem. I hope you'll help me.
Thanks and God bless you more with more and more power by your helping hand.

Yours,
Hazel

my wish is for the dream act to pass. The dream act is a bill that was re introduced in the senate and it desperately needs to pass because thousands of students like me are living in a limbo, without freedom, without job opportunities, without a lot of things that normal american citizens have. It's hard to see our classmates graduate with us and see them go on to achieve better things in life while we're just stuck with a crappy job, or maybe no job at all, no car, no money, with fear of deportation, and with a feeling of not beloging anywhere. This is the only country we know, the only language we speak, we've been here since we were babies and yet we are not even considered americans. It's hard to graduate from highschool or collegeg with a 4.00 hoping it'll take us somewhere but in reality, it doesn't.
