Sunday we are playing for a group home called Brendon manor. This is a home for people who have severe mental disorders- schizophrenic's and multiple personalities and there aren't any other places like this. The first year we did a Christmas concert for them we were met with sadness- oh the sadness. But they responded, by the middle of the concert they were smiling dancing and singing. It is so sad that this will be the last time we get to be with them they are closing at the end of December. I'm so sad- I've prayed to win the lotto so I could keep them afloat. Many of them have no place to go and may end up back in the gutter where they were picked up from.
I'm sorry to be such a downer but my heart is heavy with this sadness. I can only hope the memory of our music will linger forever in them and bring a smile to their face and some warmth to their hearts.
