Thanks for sharing. This was great to see.

A truly heart-felt moment.

Yes. Beautifully put.

Yes. Beautifully put.

A man among men, recognizing a brave women. A truly compassionate act, not coerced...

and, yes, Teri -- thie is REAL compassion, not that
crap which the progressives use as their fake
calling-card. -- j

p.s. Brooks gave the woman his guitar as a gift. . in tune.

the steel guitar carried much of the trail-out
of that song ... after growing up loving hawaiian
guitar, I finally bought a steel this past summer.
they don't have to sound "country" -- just stay
away from some of the "whiny" stuff. check out
brit Sarah Jory on this song, written by Queen's
astro-physics PhD guitarist Brian May:

except for a tiny drift flat in the conclusion, this
is a masterpiece performance, in my book. -- j

Yes ,yes. I don't underestimate the power of lifting spirits. I am in favor of kicking cancer's ass by any means.

That one small act has to supercharge his career. Too bad other performers aren't smart enough to realize how important their audience members are.

I'm not much for country music but certain country artists resonate. This is the only song by Brooks that I remember. :)

That was great. A performer who was able to put his ability to touch someone else above his own performance. I do not know who Garth is, but I like him.

That was extremely touching.

Compassion runs deep in country folk.

sorry, ....just to LIFT her spirits....

I'm sure everyone there, including that woman, knew his statement was just to life her spirits. Even so, I commend people like him who at least try to create a memorable moment for those whose lives are being cut short by something beyond their control.

Country music has grown on me since I had kids.

I hear too much about cancer, esp pancreatic, from my wife's practice. I hope genetic sciences find a way to stop it cold one day.

"you go kick cancer's ass!"
