Special request for Baltimore for my partner and her mom

mpedone

A couple of weekends back, my partner, Sarah, and I were up in Maine with her family for a wedding. Friday afternoon, Sarah's mom Kate started feeling unwell and want to go lay down. Sarah, a former ICU nurse (and current nursing professor) picked up something was wrong and started asking questions, quickly realizing what was happening, and that Kate was having a heart attack. We bundled her up into the car and rushed to a local ER, where they confirmed she was, in fact, having a heart attack. They stabilized her and put her in an ambulance to Portland. The heart attack was pretty severe, but they addressed the problems, and she walked out Sunday afternoon.

Sarah is still shaken by this (they were in the backseat on the way to the local ER, and none of us were sure we'd make it in time), but as she's kept in touch with her parents, she's been feeling better that her mom is okay. How does this relate to Baltimore? Well, Sarah and I will be there, and the show happens to be on Kate's birthday, which she will fortunately be able to celebrate again this year, and so I was hoping that maybe Just Breath or Alive could be dedicated to Kate and Sarah. 

Long shot, I know, but to anyone reading this who will be at the show or listening on a live stream, could you keep Kate in mind when singing along to either song? I'm not sure Sarah has even thought about this, but I am sure that next Thursday, those songs will hit her a little harder (in a good way).

Cheers and rock on!
