Sat, 08 Nov 2008 03:20:00 GMT C6C82366EB8CC0CAB9D7CC0247ED1346 http://journeaseonline.com/community.cfm?feature=465652&postid=30326 This story was shared with me by one of the pastors who helped provide guidance for this website. He said that a woman in his church, who had been suffering from cancer and was in her final days, was paid a visit in the hospital by two members of the church choir. Although she was non-responsive, before they left they joined together in a verse of Amazing Grace. Tears ran down the patient's cheeks as they sang, and although she never awoke and passed away the next day, the story testifies to the power of music and the ability of a terminally ill patient to process sound long after they can verbally respond to it.  Thank you, Dick S., for sharing that story with me. L verbally respond to it.  Thank you, Dick S., for sharing that story with me. L
