Heartbreaking for you and Gabriel to have to explain to your baby girl how you can't hold her as much as you used to. Piano seems like a fantastic hobby to start - imagine - all the healing properties music has and you're creating it for yourself!

Those are my favorite pianists. I'd add Diana Krall if in the mood for vocals. Jorge and I both agree that her Live in Paris album is one of the best CDsCouncillor Angel M Riverahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02864495217020430435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5042706724657155477.post-77718664886513512562013-07-08T20:07:16.800-07:002013-07-08T20:07:16.800-07:00Joelle, just a note to tell you you are amazing. ...Joelle, just a note to tell you you are amazing. Meditation is great to lower your heart rate, now is going to be easier with your new recliner. Thanks for keeping us informed. Looking forward to your first piano concert!

Abuela Diana would be so proud of you.<br />She tried to teach me many years ago...but "life" got in the way.<br />It is definitely something I'd like to learn some day.<br />A keyboard sounds like a great idea. It is definitely a time to do<br />things just for the pleasure and joy they bring. Best recipe for healing..I have ever found.<br />Abrazos,<br />Titi RinaRinanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5042706724657155477.post-3541686162851558852013-07-08T07:29:17.165-07:002013-07-08T07:29:17.165-07:00Joelle, it's not a depressing post; it's r...Joelle, it's not a depressing post; it's reality. You started this blog to share your story, and that's a story that's going to have some highs and lows. You are just learning the ropes on this battle. It helps all of us to know what you're going through so that we can think about what we can do to help.<br /><br />The piano is an awesome idea and something that you'll be able to share with your daughter long after you treatments are done.<br /><br />Keep up the good fight. Get lots of rest and know that we are thinking about you and praying for smooth waters.

I've always thought it's the first instrument I'll be teaching my kids, since it has the clearest visual representation of musical notes, which makes it a great first instrument. If you can find a small keyboard (at least 3 registries: http://bit.ly/1dadcWR) that you can take with you comfortably to bed or your recliner, you can spend more time on it, and it'll be easier to share with Sara. Plus it'll be fun to use the different instrument settings with her, so she begins to learn what guitars/harps/flutes sound like. Hope you both enjoy it.
