878
I have revived my 1000 Person Project, giving myself another shot at reaching my goal of telling 1,000 people in Clark County (Vancouver, Camas, Washougal, LaCenter, Salmon Creek, Washington) about the healing power of music and music therapy. Today, I was invited to a PEO meeting, attended by 36 lovely women. I shared my music therapy journey and they, too, shared their musical stories. I heard about grandchildren with disabilities who love to hear Grandma sing, and husbands with early stage dementia. I heard about how they use music in their own lives -- to encourage themselves to get their housework done, or to soothe a dying parent. We all were touched by each others' stories ~ Thank you PEO!
