so if you couldn't tell I'm a pretty big fan of edge sheared I've dug your music for a couple years now solemn live which was amazing and then recently a couple months ago Divide came out naturally I was super excited and I swear I must listen to that album for like two weeks straight and during that time I remember it was late at night I was frantically running back up and downstairs trying to feel circled on my Apple watch and while I was listening to it I thought it would be amazing to do an edge sharing dream desk now I totally understand when you hear those words together it might sound a little silly in fact I remember the very next morning I called off at the gym I'm going to make an edge here in dream desk and naturally he kind of laughed at me what I think he had in his head was probably more like a fan desk with autographs and pictures but for me it was more than just the music something about the divide symbol the color blue I thought it would be amazing if I could somehow implement that into a desk at one point I even talked to my buddy Chris over at forest furniture to potentially make a custom desk for this but then it was at that point when I realized I had the answer right in front of me the entire time this desk here which we already had by itself is beautiful bull makes us so special is on the back or in this case the front because how I have it set up it attaches magnetically at its core it's used for cable management but it kind of sounds as light bulb in my brains that this would be perfect what I kind of saw in my head was a semi-transparent divide symbol that we could shoot colored light at and not only get that divided blue but if we wanted to throw back to orange or green we could do that too from there Chris was able to whip up some concepts that looked amazing so I gave him the green light not only to cut out that portion of the panel but also to have that acrylic made and I think the end result is amazing now with this dream desk it was less about the setup or the computer or the tech or the gadgets and more so about the desk itself for me it didn't matter if it was a Microsoft Surface Studio the original 1984 Macintosh or a picture of DJ Khaled this was about the desk and Brando oh now this is the point of the video where I would normally find someone and surprise them with something really really cool but this dream desk is different my initial plan was to find an Ed Sheeran superfan and Surprise them in this video a tickets to an upcoming concert but in searching for that fan I stumbled upon a tweet that changed everything this suite here is from this amazing mother Cheryl who had reached out to Ed Sheeran in hopes of him maybe dedicate an adverse or a song to her baby boy Thomas who had terminal cancer and all I could think of was ed Sheeran and obviously would like emotions and I'm like oh I'm gonna come get a sweet edging and so that was the initial reason for that and then you got it so maybe that's one step towards edgier but we'll never we'll never know so about six weeks old for Thomas we saw him and he was doing all the checks and making sure that he's growing fine and development like you know like responding well unlike sounds and light and things like that and then he felt a lump on his abdomen and seems like we saw the doctor the next day and it was it just snowballed from there like he was already ringing that Children's Hospital and the following week when he was 11 weeks that's it just said um the cancer has spread because they found nodules in his lungs as well and his hip he can't move his right leg anymore and it started at the hospital and we were like wondering what's wrong with it is it something from the surgery but they said no there's a tumor now now at this point I was already so emotionally attached to this but it wasn't until the point where Cheryl flipped the camera and I saw Thomas and that broke my heart yes he just he looks unsuspecting stranger will know nothing they'll just think that he yeah nikka baby here's this beautiful innocent baby boy who's laughing who's smiling all I could think to myself is he does not deserve this now from there I was fixated on trying to make this happen I was on Twitter I was on Instagram I was emailing anyone I could possibly think of that could potentially help and I did this week after week after week I didn't care that the next dream desk was delayed I just wanted to help make this happen so fast forward to a couple weeks ago I'm still trying I don't want to give up but then I see a tweet from Sheryl and learned that baby Thomas passed away so at that point I kind of felt like I failed them like I let him down I couldn't pull through but then thinking of Sheryl and how strong she's been this was nothing compared to what she has to deal with or her husband or her baby boy so with that I wanted to finish this dream desk maybe somehow someway ed sheeran will see this and reach out to Sheryl so if you guys can help in any way by sharing this that would be amazing Sheryl thank you so much for letting me into your family for giving me a chance to know Thomas I'm so sorry for everything you've had to go through you're an incredible mother and I know you're going to inspire so many people you are one and no you can wrap your finger and hold me Thomas Thomas Thomas Tommy Thomas Thomas Thomas Thomas I'm sorry you're to go to that little buddy but I promise you you will never be forgotten you are just a small going so we are to it dog for like me real meeting of that but we're still gonna laugh his wife
