Mom

My mother is not well, battling numerous disorders including non-Hodgkin lymphoma cancer.

Today she called me to let me know that she was not well last night, burning fever, sweating and just not right.  She said she felt like there were two of her and she was speaking to all of us (her children) letting us know things like how much she loves us, that there is no will, to take care of each other, basically final thoughts.  She thought she was dying.  Not sure why, but I feel compelled to right this down.

I believe she had an out of body experience.  You usually here of this and visions of deceased relatives, she only saw us living one – that gave me some peace.

Tragically Hip’s last ever concert in Toronto

hipThe Man Machine Poem Tour

The Tragically Hip have existed the building.

The legendary Canadian band took their final bow in Toronto at the Air Canada Centre last night. The third, and final, night of their Man Machine Poem tour was certainly one filled with emotions – from fans and the band alike.

Another sold-out crowd sang along to the 26-song set list, cherishing the moments of the final show. There were visible tears among fans, especially when Gord Downie seemed to have an emotional and tearful moment on stage. But emotions aside, the band put on one hell of a performance, and Downie’s dance moves throughout the evening energized the crowd. And as the city danced along, many will certainly remember this as “that night in Toronto.”

The Tragically Hip’s final tour continues this week, ending in Kingston on August 20.
