Oh God. I honestly couldn't watch the video - just reading the article had me in tears. I know I'll never be able to listen to the song in the same way again. His son was named after John and Paul, so I guess it's fitting to send him on with a Beatles tune.

Really don't want to see/feel the video at all, but I hope he turns up to be ok someday.
