Earlier this week, country star Keith Urban took some time out of his busy schedule before his show at the Huntington Center in Toledo, Ohio to pay a visit to his “biggest fan,” 25-year-old Marrisa English, who is presently in hospice care at the Mercy Health St. Vincent Hospital in the city. Marissa, who suffers from “a myriad of health conditions including water and an inoperable cyst on her brain, severe scoliosis and cerebral palsy,” is a huge fan of Urban and even has “a [Keith Urban] t-shirt that we put on a pillow that’s beside her all the time,” her Mother told WTOL-11. When it became clear to the nurses that Marrisa would not be able to make it to the show despite having tickets for the concert, they decided to start a social media campaign to reach out to Urban himself to “see if Keith can possibly give this young girl her dying wish.” When the message got through to Urban, he visited his young fan at the hospital and held her hand through a sweet rendition of his 2016 hit, “Blue Ain’t Your Color.” Later at his Ohio show, Urban spoke to the audience about his meeting with Marissa and said: “We’re going to dedicate this whole show tonight to her, to Marissa.” Copyright(c) 2018 RTTNews.com.
