    Story

    well for them that dont know me my name is george lowe,but lots of folk call me by my middle name carl.25 years ago on 28/10/1993 my wonderful son lewis was born.i was over the moon and the bond from the start was immense..within time lewis loved to listen to my era of music and soon became hooked on the likes of led zepplin,acdc,pink floyd and the mighty LYNYRD SKYNYRD..as lewis grew older he was starting to feel down and had lots of pain in his body..at the age of 14 he was rushed into hodpital and put in an induced coma for several weeks,doctors was baffled as to what was wrong with him..eventually they got his bodyly functions all working again and bought him round,very tense times i had in them weeks.well they got him on steroids and all of a sudden he was back on his feet again as if nothing was wrong..we had a ball and carried on with our taste of music and concerts.well it came up that lynyrd skynyd was to be playing in birmingham uk and i had always promised lewis one day you will mett your idols,alas that time he didnt but he loved the whole night,his best ever concert to date he said.well not long after that the pains came back again and lewis was took to hospital where once again he was put in a coma as everything was shutting down,this time it was nearly 3 months and died once for several minutes but by the grace of god they got him back..doctors was still scrathing there heads as to what it was,they couldnt find an answer..after around 3 months lewis was bought round and once again the illness had vanished.well i had a treat in store for him and that was that we was going to see lynyrd skynyrd again...this time i did it,i got him back stage to meet his idols.i think when you look at the pictures in the link the happiness shines through,all the band even sent a signed get well card to him which still has pride of place in his bedroom..lewis said that i was the best person in the world as i always make sure i do what i say.well we had a couple of good years with no more hospital thank god.in 2011 lewis went to stay with his girlfriend in scotland and whilst still under investigation from the doctors as to what caused his problems he was walking along the cliffs when he lost his footing and taken down to his death,to this day i will never ever be able to describe how i feel and my life has been one long nightmare since then..i did promise lewis one day we would meet skynyrd once again so you can thank them,as you can see this is not going to happen but i still want to pass on lewis's request and give them a thank you card from us both plus a framed picture of lewis meeting his idols that night.well they are doing there last ever uk tour in 2019 and i have to go.i have spoke to the management and fingers crossed i will get to meet them once again..now this is the big but...tickets are selling like crazy and i am broke,by the time i have saved to get a hospitality ticket it will be to late..i really want to make one of my sons last wishes come true..i dont often ask for help and them that know me know that i go out my way to raise money for various charitys and also spend a fortune every year to put a halloween party on for the kids of my estate,this year cost around 300 pound.if anyone can help i would be forever grateful..love to you all..lewis and dad xxx

    p.s. the hospitality tickets are £170..if i dont manage to get a ticket before the time is up i will donate the money to the air ambulance in arbroath,scotland that fought in vain to save lewis after his fall
