        THE EAGLE HAS LANDED. Thanks to much to Mickey Sumner for helping get our precious cargo to her father. She’s also teamed up with Elizabeth to create a fundraiser in Domingo’s memory. All donations will benefit the National MS society. Link to fundraiser: https://rb.gy/zbngin pic.twitter.com/FT9ZgdXVVK

        Sting's daughter saw the Instagram post about it and said she would make it happen if she could get in touch with the girl. ❤👍

        I always like to read these stories before looking at the pictures. You build up this bias in you mind about the person and of course I am ALWAYS surprised, they never appear as I imagined. A reminder to keep an open mind. Your story is beautiful. What a great dad. God bless

        And now we have to get this to sting. I know the internet will work it’s magic and make it happen but I hope he gets it. Also this is a reminder to still do your passions. I have been writing again heavily and I feel lighter. When I blow up and move, music I’m coming for you! 💜
