    The way he talks about music and life makes it clear how deeply he thinks things through, and the value he places on the choices we have to make in this life.

      As a widow whose going thru treatment all alone, I'm so grateful she has her life partner to help her. I know how difficult this is, I'm alone and it's scary. Being in the treatment room and not having someone with me is sad..... My BFF who was there for me in the beginning, no longer can be with me. She's got her own medical issues now. My other BFF passed away away 2 years ago. At 78 I don't have many friends left. My son's can't be taking off that much time any more. 4 hours each session..... Plus driving and puck.up time. It's a whole day gone. Both sons work and have obligations too. They come during the week to help me clean my home, shop, keep my other Dr appts. Having a disease like MM is horrible....

    I lost my mom to Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia, and this film is painfully beautiful and accurate. Our greatest struggle when we were going through the scariest moments was battling to overcome the doctors prognosis and fatalistic mantras. I wish doctors would understand how much power they hold-they can empower or disempower a patient. I love the idea of living each day “list it’s your first.” ❤ Thank you to this strong couple for showing the world what love and resiliency look like.

    He is superb as an artist and human. Whatever he does not remember happening during the filming still became part of him, entered into his being, his brain and is there for him to draw on artistically and in living his life. Nothing is wasted. Thank you, Jon & Suleika, for the healing gifts shared in this film and in the music and painting and in how you share strength in our world.

    Beautiful documentary! So inspiring! I discovered Jon from the late night comedy show band and always thought he had so much more to offer the world. (I noticed how patient he was and supportive of others to shine ) It was so exciting to see and hear his new music and albums coming out. YES!. His band and piano playing was so outstanding and his dressing has always been so snappy and cutting edge!
    When I saw videos of him playing in the streets bringing healing, freedom and peace that was so fantastic.
    Seeing Jon and Sulika together, loving each other, creating together, and mutually supporting each other and stretching themselves to the world to shine their light is a true celebration of life. Shine on you two. You make thiis world a better place by your presence!
