My step-father’s son passed away

[spursgirls]

Thank you ?? beautiful sentiments and it is very true that when it comes to the human element, we stand together.
If anyone knows or can point me in the right direction just to get this out so Dave’s son can be honoured, I just think it will give David a massive lift.

Check your PMs.

Mate, you know you're gonna have to keep us updated with how things go now, right?
We're emotionally invested now and need to make sure our fellow yid is OK.

Massive props to you as well, that you've come onto a Spurs forum to ask for help for your step-dad shows how much he means to you. Well done mate.

Hello, I am an Arsenal fan and wouldn’t normally come to a Spurs community forum but I need us to put rivalries aside for the sake of my step-father.

David Gooch is the biggest, kindest Tottenham fan, regularly attending home games, 2 weeks ago today he was getting ready to attend the first game of the season at Tottenham Hotspur stadium vs City.

Before the game he received the most horrific call from his son’s girlfriend that his son Sean Gooch had suffered multiple heart attacks when out for a run. Sean being a 26 year old healthy runner, this was a massive shock. Without hesitation, David drove up north to Manchester to be by his son’s side. He was put into an induced coma as his brain had been deprived of oxygen for over 90 minutes. Things took a turn and he had to have his leg amputated the next morning because of a blood clot. This was done to give him a chance of survival. Unable to breath by himself, he was using up to full capacity of life support, expecting the worst David was by his sons side, playing his favourite music in hope of a miracle. This miracle did not come as Sean passed away in the early hours of Wednesday 18th August.

David is heartbroken at the loss of his only son and I too at the loss of my step-brother. I fear my step father may never be the same again and his passion for his beloved Spurs may never be what it was. After losing his father and mother in recent years I’ve noticed he’s never quite returned to his old bantering ways at my expense!

Please help me to honour Sean in some way, show David that you are all there and you hear him and feel his pain. Where do I go for Tottenham to hear this and do some kind of gesture for David and his son (my step-

I would do anything to bring Sean back and make my step-father have some happiness again, even if it meant Spurs winning the league and Champions league.

Thank you, Spurs fans.

Hi Aaron

my name is Micky Hazard, I am a former Spurs player.

I read your message with great sadness and would like to offer my sincerest condolences to David at this incredible sad happening. Having only just been alerted to this message I will most definitely call David tomorrow and would like to take this opportunity to invite him to a game as my guest and to meet some ofour former players, like Ossie Ardiles Graham Robert’s Pat Jennings etc etc . Nothing will ever replace or make up for the loss of his son but small steps can be made into large strides if we as people help him during his period of darkness. I’m there by his side and if you need to contact me send me a dm to @1MickyHazard on twitter with your phone number and I will call you. I’m sure we can lift his spirits with love and support and help give him something to look forward too and show that we care.

thank you for alerting us to this situation and we will do all we can to help David try to live again. Talk soon x
