Prior to meeting John, over two years ago, I had never met a person with more strength of character, more focused intent, more gentleness and more patience. John came to me after suffering a brain injury. The injury happened because of a fall and it changed his life. The simple everyday things that he was once able to do without any thought, have become everyday challenges in which assistance is necessary.
John began taking piano lessons because his doctor recommended the Simply Music program. Learning the piano is a way for his brain to heal and make new connections/pathways. It's been a long road with many ups and downs, but John is nearing his 100th lesson. And despite his challenges, he brings sunshine into my studio every week.
Here we are playing the blues:
Wow!! Fabulous! Maybe we can play that recording and dance to it next time I see you John!!!! Liz Poppert
