Lamentations Of A Dying Fan

  • I must apologise to everyone for my delay in replying to all of the wonderful things people have said! First, I was back in hospital, then when I came home, I was unable to remain logged in for the forum. (It appears I have addressed the latter issue, finally!)

    I have been overwhelmed by the outpouring of support and love from all of you! Before I finish this reply, I would like to point out that there was a post that mentioned:

    Oddly enough i was just listening to Pearl Jam radio and found myself walking the hallway singing lightly..." I know i was born and i know that i'll die...the in between is mine".
    Just wanted to mention that after I became ill, "Just Breathe" is my favorite song. It makes me cry almost every time I hear it, but in a good way. Which reminds me that someone also mentioned that I ought to take a box of tissue along because it seemed likely that I may end up crying for joy a lot and I suspect they were right! Tissues have been stocked and are ready for "the big day"!

    So many of you have suggested that I attempt to get my wish answered by e-mailing the various contact e-mail addresses with my post and include my ticket number. Well, I am attempting to do just that. It is taking me awhile because I do find typing and e-mailing very exhausting, I know, I know, that must sound so ridiculous, but trust me it does! So I am working on getting something put together for Monday. I will keep you all updated if anything comes from it! (Though I am not going to hold my breath.) Another person also said something along the lines of how the band and everyone who works for them, love us, the fans, nearly as much as we love the band and if that is true, then you never know!

    To every single one of you, I am eternally grateful for your support and love and well-wishes! Thank you all, thank you all so much! I hope that all of you who are going to the Manchester Arena enjoy the show as much as I am certain I will and to those of you who do not live close enough to attend said concert, thank you all as well and I hope you all get another chance to see the band whenever you can next!

    (Once again, I cannot reread everything I have typed so please excuse any silly thoughts or spelling errors!)

    Thank you all and love to every single one of you!

    KT

    P.S. Thank you all who sent me the Ten Club address to attempt to contact the band to let them know how much their music means to me! If nothing comes of my e-mails, then I will be sending them a letter, which I will keep you all updated on what, if anything happens with said letter as well!

    I hope with all of my heart that you were able to experience a live show. I suffer from colitis and chrones and know how difficult that is nevermind what you are experiencing. God I wish there was something I could do to help you. The 10c community needs to work together and figure something out to help make your dream come true by meeting Ed and the boys. Come on people let's brainstorm and help her out!!!!! Much Love....Ryan xoxo!
    Having tasted, a life wasted, I'm never going back again!
