Ed Shiran gave his guitar to help a little fan collect money for treatment

Today it became known that British musician Ed Sheeran said goodbye to his guitar. It happened because the 27-year-old celebrity supports a little girl Melodi Driscoll, who is now being treated for a very complex genetic disease - Rett's syndrome. The money raised from the musical instrument will go to buy painkillers, the cost of which is 50 000 dollars.

Ed left an autograph on the guitar for the next owner

The acquaintance of Shiran and the 11-year-old Melody girl began several years ago, when her parents launched a social campaign calling for Ed, asking him to see Melody, because the singer is her idol. Having learned about this, the celebrity did not hesitate for a long time and in a week arrived in the hospital where Driscoll was treated. The next meeting of Ed and the sick girl took place in 2017, when the musician sent an invitation for Melody and her parents to their concert. Unfortunately, it turned out that Driscoll can not be present among a large number of people, because she has a very weak immune system and is likely that she can pick up some serious disease. When Sheeran learned about this, he invited the girl and her mother to the stage 2 hours before the start of the event in order to personally fulfill her hits for her.

Here are what words recalls that moment from his life: Driscoll's mother:

"It is very difficult for me to convey all the emotions that I experienced when I looked at my daughter and Sheerana. This was spectacular! The concert for Melody lasted more than an hour and it was amazing. They sat next to each other and sang ... After this incident, my daughter confessed to me that she was even more in love with Ed. "

Now Melody is again in the clinic where he is being treated. This course turned out to be quite expensive and a lot of money is required for medicines. This was learned by Sheer, because he maintains a connection with Melody's mother all the time, and offered help. He brought his guitar and gave it to the girl's parents, saying that they can arrange an auction for her sale. And to make the tool more expensive Ed wrote on her such words:

"Do not hesitate to play the guitar. With love, Ed. "

Such a beautiful gesture on the part of the musician did not go unnoticed, and Melody's parents wrote the following words on their page in the social network:

"We did not expect that Shiran would be so sympathetic and kind person. He does not leave us with our misfortune and constantly helps. We decided to conduct an auction on the Internet among all comers. I think that the guitar will find its new owner very quickly. "
