Oklahoman girl losing sight has one wish



Malerie Levens spirit is infectious and so is her love for pop music’s biggest star: Justin Bieber.
She told FOX23:
“I like his music. I like his looks. I could go on and on for days.
“Our parents got divorced around the same age. He was not even a year old maybe, and I wasn’t either. We both have our talent, and we believe that we’ll be able to stick to it.”
For Malerie that talent is dance. While she moves like Justin, she doesn’t see like him. Malerie has a rare eye condition called Stargardt Disease. Soon she might have to quit dancing and go to a school for blind students, but before her world changes forever Malerie has ONE WISH!
“I really want to see him.” 

She wants to see Justin in person, in concert, but tickets to Justin’s upcoming tour are the hottest thing in North America.
“I would do whatever it took to get tickets,” her dad said.
Malerie’s parents could probably find lower bowl tickets to Justin Bieber’s stop in Tulsa at the BOK Center in January on the internet, but a seat there wouldn’t matter to her. She needs to be very close to Justin to actually see him.
Time is running out. If she waits much longer Malerie may never have the chance to see her idol, but what she’ll always see is the bright side of things.

    An indiegogo account has been set up to collect funds to help this young woman’s wish come true. If indiegogo can raise $650,000 for the bullied bus monitor, surely they can raise $20,000 for Malerie. Please share the indiegogo link and this story with all your friends… post the link on Facebook, Twitter, etc.
