Undoubtedly sad but a jersey retirement is a weird overreaction. Maybe a helmet decal makes more sense.
I believe we did. It’s one of the challenges having a child with cancer. You want/need to be positive for them and it’s a roller coaster of highs and lows. In our case the wife/mother was so convinced of a positive outcome that she would not accept anything less. That positivity and refusal to face the horrible possibility of death has tormented her for over half a decade now. I’m convinced it’s harder for women, they carry them for nine months, in many cases breast feed them and the closeness is something that even the closest of fathers can’t fully understand.What happened? Didn't we get an update from her mom not too long ago about the treatments being successful? f*** Cancer...
This needs to happen.Is AZ selling a Skate Hard Have Fun shirt?
We lost our son to cancer. The struggle doesn’t end here, would not wish this on my worst enemy..... if I had an enemy.
We lost our 15th month old Nephew to a drowning in the Family pool over a decade ago. No one in the Family has recovered fully, it has changed everyone. I hope you are well and have support.
Thank youI haven't been back in this thread since my original post because 2020 was depressing enough already. I don't know why I came back just now but saw your posts and didn't want to say nothing so...f***...sorry guys. That's just horrible. I can't imagine going through something like that and I wish you guys couldn't imagine it either.
Sad if true. I remember him as quite the character.I think I also heard that a little boy from a couple of years ago also passed. Can't remember his name but it was during the brief Ryan White era as he is on the bench giving him a fist bump as he walks off after ceremonial puck drop.
