About a year ago, Karina started petitioning for the singer to pay Melody a visit, but unfortunately it was right around the time he went on a social media break, so the request never got to him. However, support for the cause continued to gain momentum, and eventually a viral video displaying Melody’s ailing condition and passion to meet Ed Sheeran got the singer’s attention.
And in true Ed style, he did not disappoint.

He showed up to meet the little fighter and serenaded her with some of her favorite tunes including “Thinking Out Loud” and “Photograph.” Melody’s heart just about EXPLODED at the sight of her favorite gingerbread man strumming away on her mini pink guitar, and the footage caught on camera is almost too much to bear!! Check it out in the video below:
This says it all! 😍

“She was starstruck at first, she didn’t believe it was him so he let her stroke his tattoo to prove he was the real deal,” said Karina.

And Melody’s excitement from the experience hasn’t faded one bit.
“Melody is still on cloud nine,” her mom wrote. “Whenever Ed’s name is mentioned she starts smiling and giggling and tapping our phones so we can play the videos of her with him to her. She then starts kissing the phone. It’s so sweet.”
