Jackie from EdwardCullenNet just sent me an e-mail regarding a terminally ill fan of Rob’s who was supposed to meet him during the summer. He signed a book for her and sent it back, she had a letter for Rob and when she met Peter Facinelli not too long ago she was too embarassed to give it to him. So our goal is to get Peter to see the letter and show it to Rob. Please help out people, this is for a good cause. What are we asking you to do? We’re asking you to tweet the following:
Letter for @peterfacinelli & Rob- Childrens Hospital NYC PLS READ
#thanksfromfan >> http://edward-cullen.net/thanksrob.php
Here’s what Jackie wrote on EdwardCullenNet:
The letter below says it all. It is a ‘thank you’ letter to Robert Pattinson from a very sick fan, and she also thanks Peter Facinelli. We received it in an e-mail from one of the workers at Morgan Stanley Children’s Hospital, and we were asked not to divulge too much information due to safety reasons. Plus I don’t think I could accurately shorten everything that was in the e-mail we received, plus keep the same emotion I had while reading it.
Read more after the jump!
ECN realises that Rob has a fanmail adress, and this letter could be sent that way. However, we don’t know how long it will even take for Rob to get this letter, if it was sent by mail. However, I’m thinking at least two or three months, maybe more. Once you read the letter below, you will see why we hope Rob or Peter sees this letter as quickly as possible.
There’s a one in a billion chance that Rob or Peter may even read this letter. It may be a long-shot, but at least ECN can say- “We tried.” It is our hope that Robert Pattinson or Peter Facinelli will read this letter. It’s very beautiful and touching.
Dear Rob,
I recently received the signed New Moon book that you autographed for me in NYC while you were filming Remember Me. The wonderful ladies at the Morgan Stanley Childrens Hospital Fund especially Ms Chris and one of her friends spent alot of their own personal time and effort in getting this for me after contacting Ms C from Remember Me. I will always be truly grateful to them for this gift.
I can’t thank you enough for taking the time out of your busy life and schedule to sign this for me. It means more to me than you will ever truly know.
I am not sure how much you were told of me, but my name is Ms. MS and I am nearly 24 years old. I have a very rare lung disorder that causes my lungs to collapse at times witout any notice, and from the damage done to my lungs it has left me on oxygen nearly 24 hours a day. I can only take it off about 1 hour a day and a large percentage of my time is spent in a wheelchair as I can only walk short distances. They tell me my only other option is a lung transplant, scary right? This is a decision that I will have to make at some point but they tell me it will only give me an extra 5 – 7 years and well I just dont know. Anyway these are the breaks that life sometimes gives you.
You see I was lucky enough to win the Morgan Stanley Childrens Hospital raffle. They have looked after me since I was 16 years old which is when I first got sick. Anyway, one of the prizes I won was based around your favorite film and movie stars.
My wish was to try and either meet some of the Twilight stars especially you or go to one of your movie premieres.
Ms Chris from Morgan Stanley was trying to organize for me to come and meet you on the set of Remember Me in NYC this summer. I live in VB, but due to the timing, having to get everything worked out and the time to get clearance from your producers it was not meant to be.
I still am most grateful for the signed book from you. I will forever cherish your kind words as it gave some hope and that maybe one day things will work out for me too.
I also wanted to tell you that Peter Facinelli (Dr Carlisle from the Twilight series ) was at my local mall here in VB a few weeks ago as part of a Red Cross Blood Drive. How lucky was that right?
I got all dressed up made an effort and got my best friend to take me down to the mall wheelchair/oxygen and all . I waited for a few hours in order to see him and what a nice person he is even though he had been signing autographs for hours.
I had the pleasure of meeting him, taking a photo with him, and getting his autograph. I took my oxygen off and walked up to take the photo and I was shaking from my nerves I am sure he wondered what was wrong with me? :).
I wanted to give him this letter and ask him to give it to you but I felt a little embarrassed and he was very busy. There were hundreds and hundreds of people lined up waiting to meet him.
I love how you both are so dedicated to your work and your fans. I have attached a picture of the book you signed for me in the summer and also the picture of Peter so you know that this letter is really the truth.
I would appreciate if you could acknowledge that you received this if by chance it actually gets to you .
You seem like such a nice person and I wish you all the best in life.
Again I can’t say thank you enough.
With Love,
Ms. MS

Tears……..how sweet was her letter and what Rob wrote in her book. 🙂
i cried reading that! that so heart-breaking. i rlly hope rob gets this letter.
I know it’s so sad 😦
heartbreaking…I hope he gets to read this letter…
I hope so too 😦
Okay. That was so awesome. Very nice of her to write that thank you letter. And it just shows how sweet Rob and Peter are to their fans. Good to see a post like this instead of some papparazi photos or gossip mag rumors.
It’s unfortunate she’s sick. Lung transplants are rare, but if she gets one, 5 years from now something NEW might pop on the market that will save her, or give her more time. But we can only pray for her. I’m sure Rob has shed a few tears for her as well…. We – the healthier ones – are really lucky.
I’m in Humangenetic Diagnostics and get those stories all day – but every time I get to hear or read such a sad story from a patient, I am so overwhelmed how brave they handle their situation! I really appreciate how gentle Rob, Peter and other “VIPs” are, so that patients like the young woman get at least a “little bit back from life”.
ok so now i feel bad heres me moaning cos i have a tiny little cold and this poor girl has a heck of a lot worse.i will definitely tweet and hope that peter sees the letter and can show it to rob.
what a touching letter & so brave—reading Rob’s tender dedication right down to the kiss (x) under his signature has reconfirmed my estimate of him as a gentleman in the real sense of gentle man—thanks for posting this—food for thought for all of us—
Goodmorning, just wanted to update you on the progress of this letter. It has been seen by Peter Facinelli and you can read his tweet via twitter @peterfacinelli.
All the fans worked very hard indeed to get this letter to Peter and thanks to they’re constant tweets and by some divine intervention the letter was passed to Peter Facinelli’s fantastic webmistress Michelle Keally and on to Peter Facinelli himself.
So there you have it guys and gals Fan Power. I was touched by how quickly all his Fans rose to the challenge. x Andrea site assistant to Michelle Keally
We’re glad we could help!
