I can’t even begin to imagine the pain a parent feels when losing a child. Having 3 kids myself I don’t think I could go on. I will be there that night and really hope you and your wife get it played. I’m sure it will be extremely powerful and emotional moment. Thanks for sharing and way to be strong.
wow man sorry. I'll be at both Fenway shows also. Hope they play it for you!

I am so sorry... We have 2 boys (10 and 7) - I can’t even begin to imagine... (Trying not to lose it at my desk — @ work) Here’s to Fenway being extra special for you and yours.
I've learned not to get to emotional when thinking or discussing this, so I don't embarrass myself. But reading through this post, I do it with eyes full of tears. So, Thank You so much. True condolences, even from total strangers, really do help. So........ Thank you, Thank you, Thank you
I knew nothing about this virus when it first hit Matt, but took a crash coarse overnight (I wasn't sleeping anyway) to learn what I could. The scary part is it could happen to anyone. Usually young adults, but they aren't certain how or why. Matt had a cold for a couple of weeks. Then he started to get unsteady on his feet, so we took him back to the hospital. There has been huge advances in the battles against Cancer or Heart disease, but when it comes to the brain. We were told that is the newest frontier. They seemed very frustrated in how little they could do.

That story is heartbreaking and as a father, I cannot imagine life without your flesh and blood to share it with. I'm hoping and praying that you get your request in Boston. To Matt!!

Here’s to Fenway being extra special for you and yours.
I'll try and keep this story in mind the next time I'm irritated in traffic, or stuck in a line somewhere thinking things are the shits.
I'm sorry too. I'm glad you had great times together when they were afforded to you.
And I'm not a fan of 'please play...' threads, but I'm a fan of this one.
If they play this, my wife and I will be in tears, our son Matthew passed on 12/08/2007. As you said, they will always be Forever Young.
I'm becoming emotional here. I'm sorry you guys had to go through what you did... and I'm sorry you have to go through what you do on a daily basis.
I hope the concerts and all the other things you enjoy bring you some joy.
But reading through this post, I do it with eyes full of tears.
So, Thank You so much. True condolences, even from total strangers, really do help. So........
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you

I feell like a fool as I messed up the year, 2007 not 2017.
Not a day at goes by where I don’t fight back tears, most days I can control it, but some days they just don’t stop.
And I in no way want to derail this discussion Ski-bum, wishing you and your family the best.
Music heals, and this band does it like no other.
Bump for Forever Young.
Be well.
of all of the song requests on this board lately, this one deserves to happen the most. I hope the guys see it and play it at Fenway.
such a beautiful song
please play for matt
