rest in peace adam you truely sound like you deserve your peace and rest
my thoughts to his family whos heartache and pain will never leave, i wish i hadnt read this and i dont even know them truely truely one of the saddest things i have heard
I felt a mixture of sadness and pride reading your post mate,i thinks its lovely that you both had such a bond and it crossed over to Charlton,the staff at brent knowle do a great job and the pupils you come into contact will be very lucky in having someone with such empathy for the job that you do. Will whistle vfr at 11.30 thursday.
when you see and hear of people REALLY struggling in life it makes you humble. i have worked with hundreds of people with disabilities over the years but one always sticks in my mind.i remember working as a home carer for a 19 stone bloke with motor neurone disease. he had been a hod carrier on building sites up until the previous year but when i met him could just above move his fingers, but couldnt hold a cup or move his arms or legs. he could only eat and drink through a straw due to his swallowing action deteriorating. i remember clearly that i'd been the only male carer he'd had and found out that he was a stounch 'blades' fan. being a typical yorkshire bloke the first thing he asked me was 'which team'. after much ribbing we hit it off and we spent hours at night talking about all things football. sadly he only lived for a few more months but i still smile whenever i think of him.
Sad to hear Adam's story but lovely to hear VFR that you added to the quality of his short life.
Thanks for sharing his story VFR, very moving. Let's hope the club as a whole can do him proud this weekend and throughout the rest of the season. I'm sure that will bring a smile to his face wherever he may be.

I promise I will stand at 11:30 tomorrow singing VFR, with my Charlton shirt on.
RIP Adam.
VFR - it sounds like you were a true friend of Adams. You should be proud that you shared some great times together.
My condolences, of course, go to Adams family and friends.
