One day I got a call from my friend who is a nurse. He was in tears and distraught because a patient of his coded and passed away. The gentlemen who passed away was in his 50s and his wife witnessed the code in the room. Later that evening my friend and I went to a small little dive bar, not far from the hospital, that we frequent that does karaoke. We were talking everything out when my friend says that the wife walked in to the bar. She went up to sing right away. The room itself froze. It was an ice cold timeless feeling. Then the opening of “At Last” by Ella Fitzgerald swelled up. Both my friend and I could feel the energy in the room sink. Then this poor woman started to sing. We both started to instantly tear sitting at the bar. We couldn’t face her. Her voice was beyond heart broken. (I’m crying now thinking about it.) When she started the second At last we both sort of silently agreed that we can not be here right now. We finished listening to her sing from the lobby, and then called it quits. I’ve never felt emotion in a room like that before and I have yet to again.
