We are all fuckin' selfish bustards, we only think about ourselves, how would you feel if a member of your close family or a person who is important to you is seriously sick? My first selfish reaction was - shit why now, I've spent a fortune just to travel down under and to see U2 again. I've raised a lone at the bank, I've lend some money from my parents and my brother, why now? I'm about to leave my home (I live in Croatia - heart of Europe) and fly to New Zealand this Saturday and instead of feeling happy I feel miserable. My friend and I been through hell to get visas for New Zealand, if it wasn't for them we would probably gave up.
So, first shock is behind me, I feel very sorry for Edge's daughter, I hope she will get better. Family is always at first place for me, I would do the same thing, I would cancel my trip or something else, if something like that will happen to member of my family.
I still got 3 weeks in New Zealand and Australia ahead of me, and lot of beautiful places to see and interesting people to meet, so what if I won't be on 5 gigs and celebrate my 33 birthday on U2 concert on St Patrick day, some things are not meant to be?! I guess, I have to wait another 4 or 5 years to see them again, and meanwhile enjoy extraordinary landscapes of New Zealand and Australia, and get the best out of this mess. And my prayers go to Edge's daughter, so help her God, please!
