What a sweet brother to even think of this nomination with all that his family has suffered. Wonderful brother and I hope he has a long healthy and happy life. Josh is an incredible host. Congratulations Jen for being nominated and recognized as an awesome singer.
Jen I wish you continued success! I’m a grieving mother and USAF veteran whose son was senselessly murdered while in the USN by another Navy man on 5/5/19. My 85 year old father passed 7/7/19. I’m so lost. Both you and Josh lifted me up this first holiday season without my loved ones 🙏❤️. God Bless you & Josh. Your voices are beautiful and so are your souls.
Wow, this is my new neighbor I just met a few weeks ago!??? I am crying and so blown away by your voice @JenniferMalenke. She is as nice in private as she is in her videos. May you continue to be blessed.
Oh oh oh. I am lost for words, and I don’t know how I stumbled on this clip. I so wish my daughter could have seen this (and maybe she did), she would have considered herself in the top ten of Josh Groban fans. This story would have far eclipsed her already very high opinion of Josh. Congratulations Jen Malenke, I trust this was only the beginning of a wonderful career for you.
How did I end up watching this video?... Divine intervention for sure. With happy tears for you I watched in awe to see what Father has unfolded for you. I don't yet know the rest of your story, but I'm interested and will be praying our Lord fulfill His best for you, in you and through you. (Ephesians 2:10!)
Josh Groban you are an absolute hero for doing this for Jen Malenki. She is so deserving talented beautiful and sweet spirit deserving of all good things in life may the good Lord make all her dreams come true and I truly hope that her brother achieved complete healing for he is truly blessed to have such familial love and generosity of heart may God richly bless you as well. Josh come on man step up an ask this girl out. Don’t hesitate don’t be shy i mean she’s already crushing on you. Just do it. Jen may your heart always be open for all that our creator God wants to bring to you. I’m waiting with baited breath to see what you achieve in life. Keep looking up 🌹😘☝️🎼🎶♥️🙏
What a wonderful thing that Josh Groban did for Jen Malenke. She sings beautifully. I can't wait to hear them sing together. I am sure she will do great.
I don't know how I stumbled on to this but I'm so glad I did! After 41 minutes my heart became to big for my chest and the tears started to flow with hearing your life's story. I love it when good things happen to good people and you, Jen, are a real angel here on earth teaching us the joy of giving. It's a win-win when the giver and the given share this magical thing that all people can do, love and give generously. Thank you Josh and your team for a hand up to a very wonderful, talented singer. All the best!
Hi Jennifer Malenke!!! What an incredible story!! When Josh Groban chose you, it was because of his purpose in this life!!! Your spirit is just awesome!! I cried through the whole video!! After your spirit settled, you were soooooo amazing! Seeing you brother there, your father and your students was truly watching the miracle of Jen Malenke unfold!!! Be encouraged & know that you were birthed for such a time as this!!! I l💓ve you!!! I'm introducing you to all of my family & friends!!! GOD bless you (& Josh Groban too) 😇 Lynette Little
WOW... What an amazing story and what a BRILLIANT performance by Jen and Josh. 👏👏👏👏👏 Thank you to Josh Groban and all the technicians and musicians that made this possible for Jen, who is soooo deserving. I am seeing this in September 2023 and it's the first time that I have ever seen anything like this show. A big fan from Queensland, Australia. Oh yeh, btw, I LOVE JOSH GROBAN. 😊❤️🙏🇦🇺
I feel blessed to have seen this video and hear about your beautiful story. You are a wonderful soul and a great voice. You are a real inspiration. God loves you.
I had to rewatch some of this, Jen states to her brother, 'both of my kidneys are in 1 room., ' so you know this loving sister donated a kidney to help her brother live, they are so wonderful, Josh Groban is wonderful, what a team he has .
That was the most incredible moment I've ever known. Incredible gestures of Josh & the music producers. Incredible singer of Jen Malenke. Dear Jen, I pray that the music industry will offer you to make more singles / an album. I would love to hear your singing more. You have a beautiful voice. The world needs to hear you more. Much love.
SUCH A POWERFUL ..CAN'T FIND THE CORRECT PHRASE TO EXPRESS HOW EMOTIONAL.. THAT SEGMENT WAS !!!!!!! I cried .i felt i was right there !!!! THANK YOU FOR SHOWING IT ...THANK YOU JOSH ..MOST OF ALL..😂😂❤❤❤❤❤
God bless you Josh you are so amazing I've watched this Visio several times with Jen you are so patient and kind to her. And the two of you together singing bridge over troubled water is so beautiful you are just the best💓💓💓💓💓💓
Having just lost my Cousin “Sister” this song evoked so many heart-wrenching memories coupled with buckets of tears ~~~ Thank you, Josh, for always touching my heart in a way that no one else can possibly do~~ God blessed you with the most powerful voice with the ability to reach deeply into my heart and touch my soul!
Wow! What an incredible voice! God bless you in all you do. Your mama is so proud and is walking this path with you. Just because you can’t see her doesn’t mean she’s not there. She is all around you honey. You’ve got this. Run with it! Josh I listen to you all the time. Someone in Bradford Ohio loves you dearly! Stay safe my friend.
I have watched this video so so many times and cry along with Jen and everyone. My daughter wanted to be in the music industry, but we moved from So CA to WA. She still sings to her animals and when we visit her in OR, sometimes she'll sing and My heart is full. Lisa is 43yrs old and I thank God for giving her a beautiful voice to share with those she luvs. Josh Groban is the sweetest and Jen so deserved this... Paige Davis, you are a beautiful soul and your life just gets fuller and fuller with luv...
I came here because I really like Josh Groban. I now really like Jennifer Malenke as well. Both have incredible voices and incredible souls. Even though Josh is a superstar, he comes across as a normal regular person. I liked the part where Jennifer poked him to see if he was real! I really hope Jennifer becomes a successful artist - she deserves it. If you can, please help Jennifer's brother, Brian, with his medical costs - see the gofundme link above.
Dear Jen, I'm so happy that you had such an opportunity to sing with Josh. You really deserved it. What an amazing voice and a beautiful soul you have ! I wish you the very best for your career. God bless you Jen ! Lots of hugs from Switzerland
I find myself..closing my eyes and praying for Jen...for the voices in her head to quiet..and her voice to shine! Even though I know this happened years ago. Oh, my goodness what a beautiful gift from Team Josh! Bless you all!
Jen and Josh...Your Duet has been in my Playlist for my Fave Music for a While now...only Today7/5/20...did I find the BACKSTORY To IT❤❤😘😢 SO SPECIAL...and SO ACCOMPLISHED ❤ GREAT JOB JEN🎼🎵🎧🎶🎤
Unbelievable!!! Thank you, Josh Groban, and your team, for bringing this amazing artist to where she belongs-Superstar! Jen has the pipes-and the potential- to he Number One on the Billboard Charts very, very soon because of your kindness and generosity. God Bless You! And Congratulations, Jen. The whole world, including your mom from Heaven got to witness your flawless performance!
Wonderful and so touching. a truly beautiful voice and lovely lady. Very few things bring me to tears. this did. Josh and all who made this happen are awesome
How wonderful; what a great gift of kindness!!!! We need more of these kinds of acts of kindness, and to share this with We The People, and the Media, and our political decision-makers!!! 😊😊
OMG Jen,, at 22 minutes we absolutely lost it, body quivering sobbing for your courage to deliver what is in your heart, body and soul. That was absolutely so amazing,, sooo wonderfully beautiful.
Josh Groban has many amazing talents but I think the most beautiful is the giving of himself to value people who are wonderful and helping them to feel value on who they are THANK YOU
AMEN Josh Is Blessed In many and Blesses others in many ways And To God Be The Glory. Two beautiful human souls. Isn't God Awesome. I don't have a clue as to how I stumbled upon this, yea I do , it was right after I saw the video with Josh Groban and Celine Dion performing a duet of "the Prayer". That was one of the most deeply profound and moving songs I've ever heard performed by two very gifted song artists. Check it out and if you have dry eyes after seeing and hearing, perhaps you might consider neuro-psychiatric-pastoral consultation. It's absolutely SUPERB!!!! Meanwhile, back at the ranch, Jen is simply an amazing young lady with gusto of heart and soul, so gifted . and every good gift and every perfect gift is from above and comes down from the Father of lights ( Jas.1:17
Every time I watch this it gives me hope. There really are professionals with understanding, compassion, and a genuine heart that gives to help others! Thank you Josh Groban for helping this amazing and talented young lady. Cheryl
Jennifer Malenke I have watched this clip now 7 times and you are an amazing artist and a true inspiration ....your voice is like an angel and wow ....god bless
Josh from the first time I heard you sing at the Grammys with Celine, I felt that you are a Gift from God. And here you are still doing Gods work. I’m so glad that you came into Jens life and guided her forward. She really needed a break and you blessed her with one. Our Lord works through you. And you always make Him proud. Jens talent and unselfish soul was never overlooked. She is a bright and shining star now. It’s a beautiful story. And Josh You Raised Me Up, everytime you open your mouth. May God Bless you always. And thank you from the bottom of my heart.
I was deeply touched by your story, you truly are an angel. Your story brought some peace and hope to me. I just recently had a loss that has me holding doubt about this world we live in, wondering what are real purpose is.
Splendid duet of a seasoned Josh Groban and a newbie, made successful by pros and receptive audience. Another inspirational experience proving that nothing is impossible if you have the talent.....and the right connection. God is great. To Him be the glory. Congratulations!
Jen, I saw that concert on TV and was thoroughly taken by your beautiful voice. I have wondered since what you are up to. Oh, and that guy Josh wasn't too bad either. I think one beauty of this performance was the genuine goodness of you two sharing your goodness with all of us. Anyway, I hope you are sharing your gifts today.
Wow! Just came across this now. The whole story and presentation was extraordinary. Am a big Josh Groban fan and that was just gorgeous. Well done Ms. Malenke.
Such a beautiful happening because people care and share...and Jennifer Malenke you were marvelous...Josh Groban you are a rare person to do something like this and I love you...I'm crying such happy tears...if I could I'd cry out my ears too! Ha! Mr. Groban...May God Bless you with great health and all the things you need most...I'm ending my day at 5:pm in South Jordan, Ut. on such happiness inside and out Thank You you two...
I just came across Josh’s show this morning. It makes my day . So beautiful voice, so wonderful people. One story at a time to make life more meaningful. Thank you.
Congratulations not only to Jennifer, but also to Josh❣️ You may not have the same experience as Josh, Jennifer, but you sure are equally gifted ❗️And as much as it was an honour for you to sing with him, I’m sure he feels it was an honour to be able to sing with YOU❣️❣️❣️ Fantastic to hear you two sing one of my absolute favourite songs❣️❣️❣️
Newly moved to Brazil with all of the accompanying emotions, laughter and tears, my eldest son, in his late teens, discovered this music. We played it constantly, for it expressed our hearts. I sat here listening to these two sing Like a Bridge over Troubled Waters, aware once again of the beauty of this song and awareness I have never heard it sung like this. Thank you Josh, for helping to make a dream come true and blessing so many!
What a beautiful story. Beautiful voice. Beautiful woman. She wears her heart on her sleeve, not pretentious at all. Such a giving person. Well done by all in putting this together. She deserved it. Hope she does well in her life. I’m rooting for her.
It would be easy for someone as famous as Josh Groban to act like they're such a big shot "helping the little nobody." But, he handles it with humilty and grace. Makes me love him even more! EDIT: To clarify, I think she's amazing. I'll be getting that single now!
Whenever you're feeling cynical and doubting the ability of people to look beyond themselves and reach out to others, this video will restore your faith.
Jen your a truly lovely person with the voice of an angel & with those beautiful blue eyes & shinning personality, you have the whole package to success. Your an inspiration for son meny others. I'd sing with you but I'm in England & 60 years young. lol Josh has a great talent & is brilliant but so are you. Very well done on a good job, no an Amazingly brilliant jod. All my best to you.
Jen after watching the video, I am amaze of such wonderful soul you are. My heart goes to you. You are truly a hero and you deserve everything, i am greatful to people like Josh to give you the change of a life time. Your voice is gorgeous and so are you. Much love and success to you. God bless you
This is a dream for singers such as myself, who spend years pounding the pavement. It is so nice to see someone get such a gift. She is so talented and sweet and so deserving! Beautiful!
Geweldig! ik ( Hanny) heb van deze aflevering en de mooie stemmen genoten. Ik volg Josh al jaren en vandaag bij toeval kwam ik hierop terecht. Wat een emotie en wat een prachtige mensen.
It is now August 2020 and have just re watched this build up and Performance of Jen with Josh Groban, of Five years ago, is nothing but stunning. You are special. Yes, i have been following you for a while and now during the COVID-19. You are a Star and it will rise and shine. Wishing you all the best going forward.
I love this ,with JENN MELENKE AND JOSH, TRULY AWESOME, AND JENN HAS A INCREDIBLE VOICE ! AND WITH JOSH'S HELP ,SHE IS NOW MAKING IT. ,YOU GO GIRL!!! LOVE YOU AND JOSH THANK YOU , FOR YOUR GENLE SOUL 💝💝💝😻😻😻
Wowsers! Such a beautiful woman with a beautiful heart, a beautiful soul and beauty in deed! When she came out and said "eh-llow" in the cockney accent I just laughed! I was so tickled I watched that part several times because I just enjoyed her personality so much and every nuance of it! Then when it came to the part where her mom died I was sad for her and by the time it got to where she gave her kidney to her brother I was shedding tears with her! When Jenn was singing in the studio while being recorded I could'nt believe how beautiful her voice was! OH I LOVE JENN'S VOICE! I've heard a lot of great singers, Celine Dionne, Haley Westinrah, Sarah Brightman, Charlotte Church, etc, etc, and I think Jenn is right there with them in vocal quality! I love the soft wispy, yet powerful beauty of her voice! Call me sensitive, call me a lush, but as a man, when Jenn started singing and I heard that beautiful voice tears were flowing from my eyeballs! My shirt sleeves are all soppy! I absolutely adore this woman...wow...I want to hear more and see more! I want to hear her sing everything!
I was teary watching the whole story about Jennifer and how Paige and Walter convince Josh about Jennifer's talent and surprises her in everything wow it's an awe. Loved to see how Josh and everyone is very humble with her too. Well done.
Incredible performance and how you got there Jen! Thanks to Josh Groban and his amazing, incredible team for making this happen for you....you are a beautiful giving soul! Happy I found this tonight.....many wishes for continued success. Your heart will carry you thorough!
That was beautiful well done Jen the world is your Oyster.... what an inspiration you are and what an amazing man Josh Groban my all time favourite. Bringing such happiness and blessings through music.x
This is nice to learn about Jen and her brother. She has given so much of herself and endured so much. Josh giving her a chance with his producer. Despite her ordeal has shown her to be so brave and resilient. Oh my her dream coming true with guidance from Josh.Josh is most kind compassionate.Wow a real gentleman for sure.A special lady with a wonderful voice.Her future bright is making a difference. Thank you so very much.
That was so beautiful, she has a wonderful voice and of course every time I hear Josh sing, I get goose bumps! Good luck to you Young lady, you are a hero and you deserve it!!!
Caught this on my feed and watched the whole video to the very end, great that Josh was thoughtful enough and passed a break forward to Jen as David Foster did for Josh. Definitely some chemistry between two wonderful souls. ❤❤AWESOME
Jen, I am a huge fan of yours as well now. You're a wonderful person in and out. Praise and thanks to our Lord for having you among the finest of all singers!!!
Such an amazing story of self sacrifice and true love. Thank you Josh for patiently guiding her back onto the stage and entertaining which clearly is a forte of hers. All her nerves and jitters melted away with your guidance and team of professionals. Bless your hearts. All of you. Josh 💕 for giving back to one so deserving.
It's a lot of pressure on her, especially with such an emotional song on a short notice. I sung that song at my cousin's funeral, so that also adds to the emotional experience. May God be with them. She's gonna be great. - OMG, awesome! Jen, not only did you do it, but you did it with incredible poise & grace. Congratulations!
Oh my gosh! I’m only a third of the way through this, and I’m a sobbing mess! So very happy for her! And bless her brother! and all attached to this. AND WE GET TO HEAR JOSH GROBAN!! What more could one want?!? Thank you all for this!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🤩
Wow, Jen NAILED it. Impeccible, flawless and gorgeous voice. Way to go. Loved seeing her intense nervousness and how she pushed through all that and did her best. Her mom's spirit is smiling with her. Her performance made me cry so deeply. I too was with my mom and sang her into her death and sang my dad into his death and was with them through their decline sharing special moments in time. The six year anniversary of mom's death is in a few days so this is perfect timing for me to watch. So much love. Thank you for sharing this. A perfect lesson of "Feel the fear and do it anyway!" SO poignant, beautiful, outstanding, shining, inspirational.
Thanks to Josh Groban!!! And he's beautiful Soul.
Are youn speaa,ing to me@Erkanyildrim-me6ms
This is a wonderful story
Josh has never forgotten his big break and he greatly enjoys helping others.
What a sweet brother to even think of this nomination with all that his family has suffered. Wonderful brother and I hope he has a long healthy and happy life. Josh is an incredible host. Congratulations Jen for being nominated and recognized as an awesome singer.

I'm so sorry for your pain... Praying for you.

Jen Malenke has a beautiful voice and I hope she gets back on Broadway. She sure deserves it. Would love to see her singing with Josh again.
Oh oh oh. I am lost for words, and I don’t know how I stumbled on this clip. I so wish my daughter could have seen this (and maybe she did), she would have considered herself in the top ten of Josh Groban fans. This story would have far eclipsed her already very high opinion of Josh. Congratulations Jen Malenke, I trust this was only the beginning of a wonderful career for you.
Amen 🙏. Heroes are rewarded by Heavenly Angels 😇🙏😇. You sang with an Angel.Josh, and you are an Angel too. Two guardian Angels on that stage 🙏
You are a true hero, Josh. Thanks for your unselfishness .
Josh bless you for helping this young lady

Jen, I saw that concert on TV and was thoroughly taken by your beautiful voice. I have wondered since what you are up to. Oh, and that guy Josh wasn't too bad either. I think one beauty of this performance was the genuine goodness of you two sharing your goodness with all of us. Anyway, I hope you are sharing your gifts today.
Wow! Just came across this now. The whole story and presentation was extraordinary. Am a big Josh Groban fan and that was just gorgeous. Well done Ms. Malenke.
That was the most beautiful duet I have ever heard
What a beautiful story
Hope she gets her wish
❤️🙏🇨🇦
Such a beautiful happening because people care and share...and Jennifer Malenke you were marvelous...Josh Groban you are a rare person to do something like this and I love you...I'm crying such happy tears...if I could I'd cry out my ears too! Ha!
Mr. Groban...May God Bless you with great health and all the things you need most...I'm ending my day at 5:pm in South Jordan, Ut. on such happiness inside and out Thank You you two...
I just came across Josh’s show this morning. It makes my day . So beautiful voice, so wonderful people. One story at a time to make life more meaningful.
Thank you.
Congratulations not only to Jennifer, but also to Josh❣️ You may not have the same experience as Josh, Jennifer, but you sure are equally gifted ❗️And as much as it was an honour for you to sing with him, I’m sure he feels it was an honour to be able to sing with YOU❣️❣️❣️ Fantastic to hear you two sing one of my absolute favourite songs❣️❣️❣️
Newly moved to Brazil with all of the accompanying emotions, laughter and tears, my eldest son, in his late teens, discovered this music. We played it constantly, for it expressed our hearts.
I sat here listening to these two sing Like a Bridge over Troubled Waters, aware once again of the beauty of this song and awareness I have never heard it sung like this.
Thank you Josh, for helping to make a dream come true and blessing so many!

What a beautiful story. Beautiful voice. Beautiful woman. She wears her heart on her sleeve, not pretentious at all. Such a giving person. Well done by all in putting this together. She deserved it. Hope she does well in her life. I’m rooting for her.
God Bless Josh & Jennifer, You two are amazing for giving of yourselves ... /
It would be easy for someone as famous as Josh Groban to act like they're such a big shot "helping the little nobody." But, he handles it with humilty and grace. Makes me love him even more!
EDIT: To clarify, I think she's amazing. I'll be getting that single now!
This whole video says a lot about the 2 artists; both have been granted voices from God and are willing to share it with us. May God bless them both.
Oh my God Yes! ....
YES!
God bless you! Amazing voice!
Everytime I watch this video the tears begin to flow. Her story, her determination and her voice are so touching.
Whenever you're feeling cynical and doubting the ability of people to look beyond themselves and reach out to others, this video will restore your faith.
Jen your a truly lovely person with the voice of an angel & with those beautiful blue eyes & shinning personality, you have the whole package to success. Your an inspiration for son meny others. I'd sing with you but I'm in England & 60 years young. lol Josh has a great talent & is brilliant but so are you. Very well done on a good job, no an Amazingly brilliant jod. All my best to you.

This was amazing to watch. Not often I cry at work but this brought a tear to my eye more than once. I love Josh and Jen did an amazing job.

💝💝💝😻😻😻
Wowsers! Such a beautiful woman with a beautiful heart, a beautiful soul and beauty in deed!
When she came out and said "eh-llow" in the cockney accent I just laughed! I was so tickled I watched that part several times because I just enjoyed her personality so much and every nuance of it! Then when it came to the part where her mom died I was sad for her and by the time it got to where she gave her kidney to her brother I was shedding tears with her!
When Jenn was singing in the studio while being recorded I could'nt believe how beautiful her voice was! OH I LOVE JENN'S VOICE! I've heard a lot of great singers, Celine Dionne, Haley Westinrah, Sarah Brightman, Charlotte Church, etc, etc, and I think Jenn is right there with them in vocal quality! I love the soft wispy, yet powerful beauty of her voice! Call me sensitive, call me a lush, but as a man, when Jenn started singing and I heard that beautiful voice tears were flowing from my eyeballs! My shirt sleeves are all soppy! I absolutely adore this woman...wow...I want to hear more and see more! I want to hear her sing everything!
I was teary watching the whole story about Jennifer and how Paige and Walter convince Josh about Jennifer's talent and surprises her in everything wow it's an awe. Loved to see how Josh and everyone is very humble with her too. Well done.
Favorite song of my youth and even our youth group! Many times the Lord was my Bridge over turbulent waters. Many times He appeared!!!
Jen malenke is amazing I felt my heart being struck by her voice when she was singing!
Incredible performance and how you got there Jen! Thanks to Josh Groban and his amazing, incredible team for making this happen for you....you are a beautiful giving soul! Happy I found this tonight.....many wishes for continued success. Your heart will carry you thorough!
That was beautiful well done Jen the world is your Oyster.... what an inspiration you are and what an amazing man Josh Groban my all time favourite. Bringing such happiness and blessings through music.x
This is nice to learn about Jen and her brother. She has given so much of herself and endured so much. Josh giving her a chance with his producer. Despite her ordeal has shown her to be so brave and resilient. Oh my her dream coming true with guidance from Josh.Josh is most kind compassionate.Wow a real gentleman for sure.A special lady with a wonderful voice.Her future bright is making a difference. Thank you so very much.
That was so beautiful, she has a wonderful voice and of course every time I hear Josh sing, I get goose bumps! Good luck to you Young lady, you are a hero and you deserve it!!!
Caught this on my feed and watched the whole video to the very end, great that Josh was thoughtful enough and passed a break forward to Jen as David Foster did for Josh.
Definitely some chemistry between two wonderful souls. ❤❤AWESOME
Jen, I am a huge fan of yours as well now. You're a wonderful person in and out. Praise and thanks to our Lord for having you among the finest of all singers!!!
This video was absolutely amazing. I had tears in my eyes.
Such an amazing story of self sacrifice and true love. Thank you Josh for patiently guiding her back onto the stage and entertaining which clearly is a forte of hers. All her nerves and jitters melted away with your guidance and team of professionals. Bless your hearts. All of you. Josh 💕 for giving back to one so deserving.

awe this made me emotional for Jennifer. I was a wreck just watching it so I cant even imagine living it. Congratulations !!
It's a lot of pressure on her, especially with such an emotional song on a short notice. I sung that song at my cousin's funeral, so that also adds to the emotional experience. May God be with them. She's gonna be great. - OMG, awesome! Jen, not only did you do it, but you did it with incredible poise & grace. Congratulations!
What a talented young woman her voice rang out with true emotion. ThanK you Josh Groban for introducing us to this personable new star.
Oh my gosh! I’m only a third of the way through this, and I’m a sobbing mess! So very happy for her! And bless her brother! and all attached to this. AND WE GET TO HEAR JOSH GROBAN!! What more could one want?!? Thank you all for this!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🤩
Wow, Jen NAILED it. Impeccible, flawless and gorgeous voice. Way to go. Loved seeing her intense nervousness and how she pushed through all that and did her best. Her mom's spirit is smiling with her. Her performance made me cry so deeply. I too was with my mom and sang her into her death and sang my dad into his death and was with them through their decline sharing special moments in time. The six year anniversary of mom's death is in a few days so this is perfect timing for me to watch. So much love. Thank you for sharing this. A perfect lesson of "Feel the fear and do it anyway!" SO poignant, beautiful, outstanding, shining, inspirational.
