Hi Jeff--

I have a problem. I am extremely confused about something and I think you could help me clear this up. I was introduced to you sometime while in college. I was brought to your apartment by some girls from the Honors College. Their names were Lauren and Jewel. My name is Kim. Do you know me? Remember me? Were you ever asked to come to a hospital for a meeting about me? Are you friends with a doctor that works there? Would you like to share anything about this with me? It would help a lot.

Extremely lost--

Kim
