I've ever seen. How horrible. We once lost a daughter at 4 1/2 months into the pregnancy, but this would be a lot worse I'd think. My prayers are with the Carr family.
November 23rd, 2015 at 2:36 PM ^
I hope that the family gets the support they need in the time ahead.

Thoughts and prayers. I can't imagine the pain of losing a child.
November 23rd, 2015 at 2:37 PM ^
This is a gut punch. I am shook. Between him getting put in hospice care and how zonked he looked when Kerridge and Bolden delivered the game ball, the writing was on the wall. It just isn't easy. My heart is with the Carr family.
November 23rd, 2015 at 2:38 PM ^
Too young, too soon. Condolences to the family.

This really really sucks.

Being a father of 3 young kids and a 4th soon to be delivered, I don't even want to think of the pain the family is going through. No parent should have to experience such pain and loss. My heart is absolutely crushed.
My thoughts and prayers go out to all of those in a similar situation.

So tough for his parents and family to have to go through this. This young man fought the good fight. May he rest in everlasting peace. prayers for his family.

As a father of 3 children under the age of 9, this picture rips my heart out. I hope family and friends are able to find peace through the strength they have exhibited through this sad journey.

I hope their lives will be filled with love and warm memories.

Not sure how to make sense of this.
I don't know if these messages in any way might help how the Carr family is feeling, but in case they do, I too offer my deepest condolences.
So terrible to think about losing a child and the promise of that life being taken away. I really, really wish there weren't sick children and I hope the Carr family knows how many sympathize with their pain.

Very very sad to hear. Praying for God's peace to surpass understanding.
November 23rd, 2015 at 2:41 PM ^
It's incomprehensible to imagine being a parent and losing a child to fucking cancer at the age of 5. One of the cruelest things on this earth is childhood cancer. Fuck cancer.
Cannot say that enough. Fuck. Cancer.
RIP, Chad. Condolences to the Carr family.
November 23rd, 2015 at 2:42 PM ^
This would have affected me in the past. But now that I have kids, and two boys about Chad's age, this hits me extremely hard.
Prayers to the family, and all other families that have to endure this.
November 23rd, 2015 at 2:43 PM ^
if you have kids, give them a little extra long hug tonight (and every other)
Call your Mother and tell her you love her (Dad too)
if you are in an argument with a friend, squash it. Dont worry about who is right
That poor baby. His poor family. Not ashamed to admit Im a little misty right now (my son is about the same age). Just terrible.
November 23rd, 2015 at 2:43 PM ^
May his spirit be forever happy and pain-free, and may his family find peace in the sadness. RIP ChadTough.
November 23rd, 2015 at 2:43 PM ^
I wish there was a way to be able to lighten this horrific burden. My greatest sympathies and prayers for the will to get through this.
November 23rd, 2015 at 2:43 PM ^
Such unimaginable sorrow.
Rest in peace Chad. I pray for the Carr family and all other families struck by such a terrible disease.
November 23rd, 2015 at 2:44 PM ^
simply awful. I hope they get some strength and solace from the community with which they shared their little guy, and that they have happy memories of the time they had with him.
November 23rd, 2015 at 2:44 PM ^
You have no idea how many lives you've touched over the course of your fight! Hug your loved ones tonight everyone, our time on this Earth is finite.
Hail to Chad, always a victor valiant and conquering hero!
November 23rd, 2015 at 2:45 PM ^
I pray they can find peace.
November 23rd, 2015 at 2:45 PM ^
Heartbreaking.
November 23rd, 2015 at 2:45 PM ^
I am sorry for the Carr family's loss.

Rest in Peace tough, little fella. This is absolutely tragic. Thoughts and prayers to the Carr family.
November 23rd, 2015 at 2:54 PM ^
Your family will be in my prayers. God Bless you. So tragic. No parent should ever have to deal with a death of their child.
November 23rd, 2015 at 2:47 PM ^
Prayers to the Carr family and to all of those families going through similar circumstances. I'm glad the Michigan family was able to shed light on his story and hopefully aid to the fight against this awful disease.
My mom has been an oncology nurse for 30 years- I've heard so many similar stories and it's getting really old! Screw Cancer! No family should ever have to go through something like this.
November 23rd, 2015 at 2:47 PM ^
You and your family have meant more to all of us than we could have ever imagined.
November 23rd, 2015 at 2:48 PM ^
November 23rd, 2015 at 2:48 PM ^
I can't even.... that picture is cruel. As a parent this picture had me instantly in tears. You fought the good fight little man, rest now, rest.
November 23rd, 2015 at 2:48 PM ^
Peace to everyone. The Carr Family. The Michigan Family. Our rivals who shared in our sadness. Everyone on this Board.
For those of you who are not parents, but one day will be, remember this feeling, as times will be tough, but hopefully, never this tough.

Cancer is terrible no matter what age, but I would think it is especially terrible to see a young child go though it. Fuck cancer. RIP little man.
November 23rd, 2015 at 2:50 PM ^
November 23rd, 2015 at 2:50 PM ^
God Bless you son
God Bless the Carr family

I wish strength and peace for Chad's parents and their entire family.

Truly horrible news. RIP Chad

Sincere and complete props to Michigan State and Ohio State for all the well-wishes and class they showed - and may we never ever ever have the opportunity to return the favor because no parents anywhere should ever have to endure burying their child.
November 23rd, 2015 at 2:54 PM ^
Such a sad picture. As a father this just hurts the soul. The absolute worst thing a parent could ever go through. If you have kids around Chad's age you can't help but think, what if it where my son. Thanks to the Carr for sharing Chad's story and light with the rest of the world. Rest in peace little guy, forever #Chadtough
November 23rd, 2015 at 2:55 PM ^
Fuck this world.
November 23rd, 2015 at 2:55 PM ^
Life is so unfair at times....Just a lil guy like my grandson....so heartbreaking to all involved...The picture of him and Mom looking out the window is the image that goes through my mind...prayers for all
November 23rd, 2015 at 2:55 PM ^
Wow, that picture is so incredibly sad. I can't imagine the pain that the Carr family is going through right now. Thoughts and prayers to them.
