Shipping Stef & Johnny D Up To Boston.
Over the last week Given To Live has been chatting with Stef and Johnny D, finalising flight details for their trip to Boston to see Pearl Jam at Fenway Park, home of the Boston Red Sox. Show tickets are taken care of and a great hotel awaits them.
When Stef and Johnny D first met fifteen years ago they'd go to gigs, a lot of gigs, forty or more a year and live music has been a huge part of their journey so a trip to see a band they love is special. And as sports fans Fenway Park makes it so much more special for them.
Their journey together as Stef faces her cancer is at almost eighteen months and it's not over yet. First lymphoma which is under control, then colon. Chemo since January last year, four of the first six months needing twenty four hour care. Their journey together.
Stef and Johnny D have gone to hundreds of shows together, loved together, worked together for six years (at a salon, he's hair, she's nails) and now they're facing this together. Johnny has missed two appointments in all this time, taken care of Stef as she lay in a back brace, after she had brain surgery as part of her treatment, through the nausea and Stef is so clear she couldn't have faced this without him. And Johnny was equally clear that there was no way he was doing anything other than be there with Stef. Side by side stepping together into the heat of such great uncertainty, together on the bad days, together on the good days when Johnny makes sure Stef gets out, meets friends, goes to the beach.
Pearl Jam, Boston, 2nd of September will be their show. And GTL's chance to celebrate and honour both Stef and Johnny D, to celebrate them individually and together as they travel this most uncertain of roads.
We know Fenway had its own Johnny D not that long ago, who was famed for both his hair and his home runs but we reckon Stef's Johnny D has better hair and there's no doubt she'll also tell you he's been knocking them out of the park for her everyday these last eighteen months.
Stef and Johnny D, we'll see you in September

Listened to Stef talk about 18 months of treatment including brain surgery, how having Johnny D by her side every step of the way means the world to her. And they'll walk this journey together until it's over and it's a long road yet.
