Hello My Dear Friends,
I am writing on behalf of my friend, Superstar Billy Graham. We have joined forces to raise funds, and send a very special 9 year old girl, along with her parents to Wrestlemania 25. This girl is Shiloh Pepin, known around the world as THE MERMAID GIRL. Please do a Google search, typing in MERMAID GIRL and you can see this girl is a living, breathing miracle. Her legs are fused together from the waist down, she was born with no rectum, no genitalia. no uteras, no bladder and only 1/4 of a kidney! This little girl has already endured over 150 operations. She was born without many of organs that we have inside of us, and take for granted! She endures an uphill battle every day, to survive in this world. Superstar has a genuine passion to fulfill this little girls dream of meeting the WWE superstars in person. Vince McMahon has already agreed to pay for the hotel for the Pepin family to stay for a week in Houston. The Discovery Channel will be there also to do a second documentary on Shiloh, and her many health battles. What we are trying to do, is raise the travel expense money for the three family members. No donation is too small, or for that matter to large. PLEASE LET YOUR HEART GUIDE YOU! Karl K. Lauer, Executive Vice President of the Cauliflower Alley Club has stepped up to receive all donations, and pass them along to the Pepin family. When you send a check or money order, please make it out to: LESLIE PEPIN.
All donations are to be sent to:
Leslie Pepin
in C/O
Karl K. Lauer
HCR 33 Box 107
Rolla, Missouri 65401-9808
BE A HERO!
This miracle girl is in a constant fight for her life. The least we can all do is show we have compassion and give her some special memories!
Please help!
Sincerely,
Bill Anderson

WWE Hall of Famer "Superstar" Billy Graham, MWF President John Cena Sr. and the superstars of the Millennium Wrestling Federation are teaming up to help bring superfan Shiloh Pepin, known to the world as "Mermaid Girl", and her family to WrestleMania 25 in Houston this April. Karl Lauer, Executive Vice President of the Cauliflower Alley Club and longtime friend to the MWF, will be collecting donations for this tremendous cause.
Born in August 1999 with a birth defect called sirenomelia, Shiloh is one of three known children in the world living with this usually fatal disorder. That she survived at birth was incredible in itself; that she has survived every medical crisis in her path is nothing short of miraculous. Sirenomelia, sometimes referred to as mermaid syndrome, is a rare congenital condition in which the legs are fused together and there are severe abnormalities of the bladder and kidney.
This Sunday night, Billy Graham will join us on MWF Xtra: The John Cena Sr. Show to talk about his efforts to help Shiloh and her family have the weekend of their dreams, along with news of Graham preparing to come to the Millennium Wrestling Federation this spring!
Superstar Billy Graham will be on a live video webcast on Sunday night, February 22nd @ 7 PM Eastern Time.
