Dear Mr. McGuiness,

I have been searching the net since last night trying to find some way to get in touch with you. I did however stop to sleep. I wanted to ask you and I realize that this is a long shot, if there was a way that I could see U2. The last time they came to Boston, I could not go and it was not because I did'nt have the night free or no money, it was because three years ago, I was diagnosed with seizures and I cannot expose myself to all that lighting for fear I would induce one. Flashing lights induce seizures. However, I still have the desire to enjoy life even if I have limits and to be so restricted takes music out of me.

I realize that this is not a life threatening illness but nonetheless I still have needs besides work and home. To not be able to go and indulge the music side of me is like ripping my heart out. The night of the concerts, I had to go take a walk because I was feeling bad. Please Mr. McGuiness, can you help me? I just want to be able to enjoy something again, like going to a concert. When I came back from the walk, my roomate said "its only a concert" but it isn't. Even now as I type this, my eyes are filling with tears.

I just want to be able to enjoy music again. I want to be able to see U2 again. I never realized what I had until it was gone. The week after my seizures started, I was supposed to go visit my relatives in Minnesota but the neurologist put the ax on my trip. I know people play on people's sympathies which is why I will provide documentation to show the medical truth. Please Mr. McGuiness, I just want part of my life back.

Can you work it out so they can do a concert that I can see? Please can you contact me? I live in the US. My home address is

Heidi A. Dietrich
