Stories about those days.

The stories that people have about Jamie’s photos are a source of amazement.  Some are of the “that’s me and we were doing this” type of stories from Jamie’s friends. Some are the “I never met Jamie but this was taken on my birthday and it means a lot to me. And some are just stunningly moving one of a kind stories.

    My 18th birthday. Got out of the hospital that day after having been in for nearly a month. Turned out I had a rare liver disease and the doctor told my mother I had a year to live. Sorry to disappoint, but still alive, still struggling with the liver disease. Survived cancer 11 years ago. Married, two daughters – 6 years and 10 months old, been patiently waiting for a liver transplant for four years now.

    The day I turned 21. A couple of friends who I introduced to each other made me a cake and we all went out to a bar, where I almost got in a fight with three guys who were waaaaay bigger than me because they bumped into me but didn’t say “sorry” or “excuse me.”. Those two friends of mine later married and have three children.

    My rather is peruvian and as soon as I saw this I related. I obviously looked for my Birth date and magically the picture is from a place a feel emotionally familiarized with. Brilliant work.

    I was born on this day at 6:45 pm. Its beautiful to see inside other peoples lives. Sometimes we forget the world was still spinning before we got here and that every single person keeps on living after they are out of our line of sight. This website really brings that thought forward

    I was born in December 97, sad to not be able to see a photo for my day, but this made me think, the person inside her could have crossed paths with me once, they could of even been born on the same day as me…

    This is the day I got married. It didn’t last long but it was a happy day. I married a Colombian in Devon. The weather was dreadful, thunder and lightening. My mother didn’t come to wedding because she couldn’t be bothered.
