We save each other.

"My 2nd gig today was in the Memory Care section - a small group of VERY challenged folks, some of who are kind of loose cannons, some of whom are barely with us anymore, and a few who are my little miracles. I ALWAYS break through to at least a few of them and lately they really seem to recognize that it's ME. Today was beyond anything I had previously managed to do - more were participating and a staffer named Julio was dancing and singing with them.
There is a lady there named Rose - who I wait all month to see. She is always full of wonder and sings along and thanks everyone. SO beautiful and SO precious. At the end, I went over to thank her and asked if she knew who I was. She said, "I NEVER forget you. Thank you SO much for coming. You SAVED me." I said, Rose, you save ME. Every time I play music with you." She said, "We save each other." And then she put her hand up to her eyes. I asked "Rose, are you crying?" She quietly said "Happy tears." And then she gave me a kiss.
I would walk through a desert for a moment like this. Forever. That is all." - September 30, 2014
