A Girl with Rare Condition Hope to meet Justin Bieber!
Megan Ham, 11, has one of the rarest conditions on the planet. Doctors didn’t expect her to live past the age of two, but now she’s defying the odds with the help of her love for Justin Bieber, reports Fox12 (KPTV).
She was diagnosed with Lissencephaly shortly after birth. The condition has left her severely neurologically impaired. There are only 1,500 known cases of Lissencephaly among kids worldwide.
Doctors say Megan will never be able to walk and will never be able to talk. At one point, doctors told her family she would never recognize them or even express emotions.
It was her teachers at Hearthwood Elementary School in Vancouver who stumbled across her love for Bieber on accident one day when JB’s song popped up on the radio.
Now, Megan’s wheelchair is fully equipped with a special switch so she can listen to his music whenever she wants. When JB’s songs come on, Megan begins to smile and even kick her feet.
It didn’t take long for word to get around to Bieber after FOX 12′s story. He sent a tweet:
“MEGAN you stay strong for me and I’m gonna make sure we meet when i come to Portland. Love you and Thank You-”
