I think one of the absolute best things that Mayo has done over the years is to have that piano in the Gonda Building atruim for all to enjoy. I frequently walk through there and it ALWAYS puts a smile on my face to see everyone sitting around, playing, singing, dancing and just enjoying themselves. There is an email circulating around today at Mayo that the Cowan's will be in the Gonda lobby today at noon for a revisit. I am sure to be down there to enjoy since I didn't get to witness their original performance. I hope someone brings their camera so that we may have more YouTube videos to enjoy!!!

Thank you. Thank you... I am grateful for your Mom's determination as well as the wonderful outcome. The couple who played the piano was certainly a gift to all who were there. God blesses us in so many ways... Reading your story makes me realize that perhaps I should make a trip to Mayo's... I have had much improvement as I am a survivor of West Nile Virus, but am having other problems which complicate further advancement. Maybe they can help me too. The wonderful doctors were able to help my daughter when another doctor accidentally severed a nerve while removing a tumor many many years ago... They also were able to help my ex-husband with his leg many years ago. May the Lord continue to bless you, and may you be mindful of those blessings. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you…

I would like to try playing this in senior centers to make other people happy but I have been unable to locate the sheet music. Please let me know where I can find the piano duet-Old Grey Bonnet.

I have struggled with a number of Jaw and teeth issues over the last 5 or 6 years. Most people have just dismissed the problem, but I have this gutt feeling that something isn't right. It sounds like you have been experiencing some of the issues that I have. And maybe you may have some more experiences than me, that might point me in the right direction to see if I need to seek out more answers. Would you be interested in talking?

I am leaving for my 1st trip to Mayo tomorrow morning at 8am. I have an appt to see Dr. Keller. Ever since I got accepted to have an appt I have been very excited but very very nervous. This is a problem that has been going on for 13 yrs and I have endured so SO much pain every single day. Hearing you talk about how wonderful and how talented Dr. Keller is makes me feel more at ease. I am have been so scared that whatever Dr. I saw would say that there was nothing wrong and that he couldn't help me...just like all of the other dr's I have seen for the past 13 yrs. They couldn't figure out what was wrong and why there was so much infection in my maxilla that they just gave up and told me that they don't know and that it must be a neuralgia. But it isn't a neuralgia b/c neuralgia's don't create infection & they certainly don't kill other teeth as this has. Anyway, I am very nervous b/c I want so bad to close this chapter in my life. Thank you so much for putting my apprehensiveness to rest on this Sat. night...the night before I leave for my long awaited world renowned Mayo Clinic visit.
