I posted it at GtF Live Board yesterday, but also now here again:

Hey there,
this is my very first post here since i become 10c Member today.
It is not easy for me to write this down.
My beloved mother Manuela died this morning (14th July) at the age of 53.
It was agressive cancer. 
I struggeled the last weeks with a heavy covid infection, so i couldnt visit her in these last days. 
I listened a lot to Thumbing My Way in the last month.
The lyrics, especially
No matter how cold the winter, theres a springtime ahead
, helped me alot in my life. 
And so again in these days.

I plan to go to both Amsterdam shows, my shows 18+19 in total.
I never heard TMW live, so it would be my wish, if you Pearl Jam, would play it at one night.
I hope, that the band can read it, spread my wish, maybe they will play it.

Thanks alot
Marcel
