Heroes
God for sticking with me even through the tough times and saving me from death 5 times so I may help others.
Jesus for sacrificing himself on the Cross for me. He died for me so I can goto Heaven and is always there to help me even when I screw up (ALOT lol) My wife for being there for me and showing what an Oustanding Wife and Woman should truly be like. My surgeon for saving my life with surgery. Anyone who saves a life or never gives up and takes responsibility for their lives even when the times get tough, those are heroes.
My name is Jeremy Norman. I am 23 and come from Ohio. I have always been a big person but was always told by Doctors I was Eating Too Much or just a Late Bloomer. In 2000 I was finally diagnosed with Froelich Syndrome (low testosterone) and tried to treat my problem so that I may lose weight. My treatments were unsuccessful and in 2004 I was up to 803lbs. I had my surgery November 2004 and had a list load of complications. I almost died 5 times but was saved by God and now I am doing my part to help others. I am still bedridden due to complications. I was Ordained Reverend Minister and made Co Pastor of Diversity Life Ministries, September 6th, 2007 at 11pm. I am still studying in school and learning on my own self faith journey but when I walk again I will be out Testifying and Teaching and Motivating others. Love your neighbor and do not Judge others. Most important is to Love Yourself,Your Family and God. God Bless You ALL

Hi sweetheart. Thank you for watching over me the past month or two.. I know you've been there, I can feel it. I've really needed guidance and you've really helped me. Please always stay next to me honey.. I will always need you and want you with me always. Hey, I'm almost done working with the home videos.. so I can watch you, too! :) Lots of great memories.. I wish we filmed even more, but I'll be grateful for what I got. I love you so much, Jeremy. *huggies and pampers* <3 <3 <3 <3
Hi friend. I saw your movie last night, it was such an incredible tribute. I really enjoyed watching you on the big screen. It was really neat to see your room and your parents... and your struggles. I appreciate you even more now - if that is possible. I miss you today, more than ever. I am so glad your story is being spread so widely across the world. This is the message you wanted to send, to all. A message of love and hope - and I appreciate that more now. Thank you for pushing through the darkness and showing up in my town, to smile at me from the screen. It was so nice to see you again, my friend. I hope you are well. (hug)
I only spoke with you in email a few times. I re-read you messages to me only a few weeks before your journey to heaven. I want people to know your still a big infulence in my life. I want you to know you will be remembered. With a few emails you touched my life in a profound way.
I hope to meet ya when I make that same journey someday and shake your hand.
I was going to wait until the new year. Someone told me to start it tonight. It was a year ago Jeremy shocked the Youtube and Myspace community by his passing. there is so much to learn about the love that inspired Jeremy to reach out. Join me tonight from 12-? am to talk about this Hero and bring a candle to light in his honor. www.stickam. com/236lbsnomore
You are such an inspiration to so many people. I'm sorry I never got the chance to know you, but I look forward to the day where I get to meet you! Robbi is so great, I've talked to her briefly on youtube and I feel so blessed and hope that her and I become better friends. She is an amazing person and I'd love to get to know her better, and maybe she can tell me more about you! Well anyway it's really late here and I have school in the morning so, off to bed I go! God bless you Jeremy!
Jeremy you are my light, my inspiration, and my purpose. I miss you so badly and times are tough, but I know with faith it will get better. Riley and I miss you Sweety.. one year may have passed since I last held you in my arms, but I will get another chance someday.. just waiting. Until then, I will keep my chin up and spread love whenever possible. You have taught me so much and I never want to let go of all the cherished memories your presence and grace have given me. I miss your smile, your laughter, your voice, your kisses, and your "I love you's".. Merry Christmas my baby Jeremy.. my love.. my everything. Love you Always.. forever and ever. Muah~!
