| Shortly
after Maria was released from the
ICU at Harborview, Robin began talking
to Hilary Butler, a long time family
friend, about creating a song to share
the amazing story that was unfolding,
a song for Maria. She asked her to
use her talents and the talents of
her father James Butler, a song writer,
to develop this song.
Robin knew it was important to help
support and encourage Maria, but also
to show others the courage and love
she was witnessing. With help from
other talented members of Hilary's
family and some of their compassionate
friends, they worked for months creating
this special song.
Robin and Maria were both so touched
by this song and the love that went
into creating it that they asked if
they might get some help to make it
available to those touched by Maria's
story. It's not about the tragedy
itself, but about the love of a mother
and daughter and how that can overcome
all obstacles. Its about being grateful
and trusting even in the worst's of
times. Its about the courage that
we all have inside and the celebration
of that courage. |
