This is an amazing testimony. I am so glad to say that I too will be pursuing a future in music therapy!
Beautifully and bravely shared! As a another MT-BC who was also privileged to both greet and say goodbye to one of my precious children with music, I especially enjoyed hearing Bella's song and story. Isn't it wonderful how music is a gift that never ceases? And now it remains a continual connection between me and my Christina, for you and your Bella, and for countless others. All the best!
Your energy is so soothing, so powerful. Thank you for sharing it with the rest of the world and for reminding us of that this game can only be won if we laugh ... and if we LOVE.
Beautiful. Touching. Inspiring. Thank you Tim!
this helped remind me why i'm pursuing this career/life path
yallsmoketoenjoyit Awesome! Sometimes, we all need a little reminder to rekindle our "why" when the day to day gets intense.
What a healing message! A true testimony to controlling the uncontrollables...making the journey therapeutic and pleasant when we have no control of the outcomes. You are an inspiration by walking the walk and talking the talk. Thank you Tim! Respectfully yours, another music therapist...
This is amazing and beautiful. It really shows how music connects souls together.
I recently moved out of ablr and had many drumming groups with you and want you to know that the energy you bring to a room full of people is amazing. To be where you are now after the past is inspirational to me
I love this TED talk! Very moving. Just like Tim Ringgold's blog.
Today I had a hard day, won't bore you with all the details, but it occurred to me that my day would have been a lot less successful hadn't I listened to Telemann, Vivaldi and an adaptation for harp of a piece of Bach on my radio-app on my smart-phone. I remember many days taking care of chores, feeling so heartbroken but supported by my friend Baroque music. If it weren't for music, I would have been locked up ages ago.
Ted, This was beautiful, ('Bella-like"). Thanks for sharing. I've been an MT-BC for almost 30 years and it STILL gets better everyday. A vocation, a career, and sometimes a pastime all in one.
What a moving story, thank you. I’ve always felt like I had to choose between music and medicine, after some research on music therapy I’ve gained some clarity about deciding to become a music therapist
Wowwwww!!! I had a STUG there at the end Tim! Thanks so much for sharing the beautiful soundtrack to Bella’s transition...#Bella’sBeautifulSong!
Tim, I've come to know you & your family, & love you all. Way to go making it to TED. You continue to inspire me daily (& our crazy sick purchases)!!! Congrats!!! *ps even though I am we'll aware of your story, it always brings tears of sorrow & smiles of joy.
Beautiful, Tim!
BEAUTIFUL!!!!!
Tim! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and representing our field! What a fantastic opportunity....
Also, thank you so much for sharing the impact of music therapy on your family. Much love and peace to you all.
You're welcome, Melinda! Thanks for the kind words.
His baby's skin would blister & come off with the slightest touch or friction. She passes away after a bone marrow transplant. The story of him writing this for her before she was born & it coming on in the room as she transitioned back to pure energy, is a beautiful & true story. You need some love in your life, Jerk, so that you can find some joy, a be less of a ...jerk.
Thank you for sharing.

I personally got the same disorder
I want to be a music therapist so bad! Also what colleges have good music theray programs other than mercyhurst and slippery rock?
Ashley Viszneki Ashley, if you go to www.musictherapy.org, you can find out about the 70+ colleges that offer programs (in the U.S. at least). Go for it!! It is so rewarding.
Could you possibly tell me more about the ipad program which simulates a harp? thanks so much
+Ruth Langevin It looks like ThumbJam. Just bought it a couple of weeks ago and I've been messing with it a bit. Really good program!
Hi Ruth! I was using an app called "Celtic Harp."
They should use music first.
*crazy SOCK purchases ;)
Can we get together
This guy is like a parody of Music therapists because he's the ultimate stereotype of what you'd expect from one.
Isn't that a good thing?
Ashley DeWitt I think its the wrong definition. I think he meant the standard to them.
Is this guy bs or not? Jesus I can't tell
+HeatBombastic, if you check out my blog at www.bellasblessings.com, you can read all the brutal details of my daughter's journey. I can assure you, no bs here.
HeatBombastic how could you even say that! Dude that's just not right
