For your continued recovery, I recommend gathering the family and listening to one of the greatest works of art ever composed: Beethoven’s Op 132 String Quartet, third movement “Heiliger Dankgesang”. (Better yet, the whole quartet).
It’s about his own severe illness (near death) and recovery, the ups and downs, and ultimately triumph.
It leaves me speechless every time I listen. For someone who’s gone through what you have, I can’t imagine what it must feel like.
So many great things to look forward to in life, including that dusty viola. Enjoy & sending you strength 💛
P.s. As one does, he composed it stone deaf.
