BuffaloBud Posted November 5, 2004 Posted November 5, 2004 This is a must read for all of us. I've been having a pretty crappy couple of weeks at work and this not only choked me up, but put a nice smile on my face. I hope that the ball is completely covered with autographs when he leaves the stadium. Jack in Syracuse - anything that the BlueCoats can do for this family?

dib Posted November 5, 2004 Posted November 5, 2004 You know, if we can get his address I can load him up with extra stuff I have and I can copy some DVD's featuring Kelly
aussiew Posted November 5, 2004 Posted November 5, 2004 Tears here. It's on the TBD page. Awesome. But I hope the cold/damp weather won't be a problem for his breathing
nick in* england Posted November 5, 2004 Posted November 5, 2004 Nice story. I hope the Bills pull out all the stops for the guy.
BuffaloBud Posted November 5, 2004 Author Posted November 5, 2004 Moving this back towards the top hoping that Jack or someone else can help out.
SF Bills Fan Posted November 5, 2004 Posted November 5, 2004 I hope that kid gets taken care of. Someone has to notify the Bills. I'm sure they'll make sure he meets many players. I had a buddy that had CF. He lived until he was almost 30 and defied the odds big time in doing so. It's a horrible disease, it has a has a 95% mortality rate. This kid is already past life expectancy, I think. I'm glad he could make it to Buffalo for a game. I'm sure his medical bills are very hefty. ------------------- Go Bills
Campy Posted November 5, 2004 Posted November 5, 2004 Nice story. I'm glad he has the opportunity to see a game live.
MartyBall4Buffalo Posted November 5, 2004 Posted November 5, 2004 Very Touching story about a corageous kid. I wish the best for him. Hopefully someone in the bills organization reads this story so he can get to meet the players and get a few autographs and something, but as far as his state of mind. I'm sure it'll be all worth it for him if the Bills Crush the JETS. B)
DPR4444 Posted November 8, 2004 Posted November 8, 2004 it's an added bonus that this brave kid got to see a big win. does anyone know if he was able to get autographs, etc?
WWVaBeach Posted November 8, 2004 Posted November 8, 2004 Info? Anyone? What a great story. He's a True Blue Bills Fan!
DPR4444 Posted November 9, 2004 Posted November 9, 2004 i emailed Bob Dicesare to see how things went this past weekend -- below is his response: "Brien got the royal treatment. They brought him into practice Saturday. Let him get autographs on his football. Gave him an autographed Bledsoe jersey. I think there was a helmet or two in there as well. Plus plenty of pictures. 'Twas a happy ending. The Bills are great about stuff like that. dicesare" win lose or draw - the Bills are a class organization
CosmicBills Posted November 9, 2004 Posted November 9, 2004 win lose or draw - the Bills are a class organization 109956[/snapback] Absolutely, if they weren't the fans here wouldn't be nearly as passionate as we all are.
