Jacob's Special Melwood Day

13-year old Liverpool fanatic Jacob Soar saw his Anfield dreams come true recently when he met up with his Kop idols at Melwood.

Jacob, from Doncaster, travelled to the Reds' training base with parents Amanda and Kevin to meet and have photographs taken with Torres, Carragher, Cole and co.

Sadly, Jacob has faced a lifelong struggle with a number of conditions including Severe Dystonic Quadriparesis; Hydrocephalus; Symptomatic Focal Epilepsy; Bilateral Tempral Optic Atrophy. He has a Tracheostromy and a Gastrostomy button, and suffers recurrent chest infections.

But for one day at least he was able to put his problems behind him and savour every second of his special Melwood visit.
