Saw this in the newspaper, hopefully we can somehow get Gaga to see it


 

Spoiler

 

 Owen Zelinski, 12, was born this way – and maybe that is why he finds his inspiration from the artist who sings about just that.

Zelinski battles with multiple critical and rare health conditions. When he was 19 months old, he was diagnosed with Dysgenisis of the Corpus Callosum. This means that the left side and the right side of his brain cannot communicate with each other. This puts Zelinski on the Autism Spectrum and means he cannot verbally communicate.

He has suffered frequent seizures his whole life and deals with chronic infections and severe delays. Just two years ago, he was diagnosed with Dravet Syndrome, a very rare form of epilepsy. He has suffered seizures that have caused regressions in his condition in recent years. Because of this, he requires the aid of an at-home nurse during the day.

In his battle, Zelinski has found a safe heaven — the music of Lady Gaga. According to his mother, Jennifer Collins, Zelinski will sit and listen to Lady Gaga for hours pulling up her songs and music videos on his tablet and other devices. “Born This Way,” “Just Dance,” “Paparazzi,” and “Poker Face” are some of his favorite songs. He has done school reports on Lady Gaga and frequently checks out her biography at the library.

“She has just been a kind of inspiration to him,” his step-father Ryan Collins said. “He definitely gets her music.”

The family already has tickets to the Sept. 10 Lady Gaga concert in Philadelphia, so Zelinski will get to see his favorite entertainer in person, but the family is looking to take it one step further – they want him to meet Lady Gaga.

THIS NEEDS TO HAPPEN.

Let make it happen guys. He's "family" :hug:. No we are NOT a fanbase. We've been through too much to be a fanbase. 

I love you monsters. I'd be unfixably broken without you
