I need to find a friend who I'm like. Someone who is picked on in school, has a disease, ya'know, the works.

Alex, tell folks a little more about you. I'm sure someone has a young teen like you at home who might like to have a pen-pal.
How old are you? what do you like to do? What pets do you have at home?
What is the best part of school?

(And that kid in our banner at the top of your screen with his dog, that's Alex a few years back. He has generously allowed us to use his photo in our literature.)
Thanks,

Hi there Alex! I'm Christina. I'd love to chat and say "hi!". I was diagnosed with VHL when I was 13, so I've shared a lot of experiences with you. I'd love to talk, but I won't be able to post for a few days. I'm going out of town until 8/25, so I won't be able to reply until then. I just thought I'd drop you a note to let you know that I'm here and I'll write you as soon as I get back.
Take care, and have a good weekend!
Christina
