songwriting

 

I've been writing songs since I could write.

But I started co-writing songs with my patients in 2007.

It started out as silly ditties in the chemo room and then progressed into full songwriting sessions.

The lyrics came pouring out.

Always about what moved, touched, and inspired my patient throughout their life up until now.

The first 'official' song (I call the project Lyrical Life) was for Charles.

An amazing human being and piano teacher.

His song was called Teaching Me.

The patient songs will live here forever, as they do.

Forever my songs.

Forever my patients.
