I couldn't bring myself to start the thread. The reason TU (Sean) is one of my best friends today is because of this board.
After the hockey strike ended I get a PM the afternoon before the first game of the season. Sean and a couple friends were going and their friend bailed last min... he didn't know me anything more than "Koya" but figured the ticket shouldn't go to waste. Met him outside MSG - they were they guys in the ranger jerseys (yeah, thanks for the tip there). Somehow we did find one another, and literally from that day forth he has become one of, if not my best, friend.
Guy has a heart of gold. Has been dealing with some tough issues with his mother's health, and unfortunately, and not surprisingly, his focus was solely on others and unfortunately that meant he was not as attuned to his own health concerns, figuring he'd deal with some ailments after his mother got better (she is doing better as I understand).
This past Thursday, Sean complained to his father about shortness of breath. Rushed to the hospital and they sedated him. Going through near total organ failure and has not awoken since. I'm crushed, many of us who know this man and all the good within him, are.
We are giving every thought, and prayer and well wish we have, but the collective mojo of the FFA could not be put to better use.
Love you, Sean. Keep fighting.
