@tjgisewhite, Welcome to Connect. Would you tell us a little more about how you experience music? Do you sing, play an instrument, dance, listen? I am interested to hear more about how you have used music as your therapy for your soul. (I like that phrase).

Thank you. My name is Tammy and I am a recent liver transplant patient at Mayo. I sing at home and in the car...lol. We didn't always have TV when I was growing up, but we always had a radio. Music has always had a special way of touching me and bringing out the very best in me. Thank you again for asking about my interest in music.

There is a wonderful Music Therapy example in Indianapolis ...see link.. https://www.eskenazihealth.edu/programs/music-program

When I have been at Mayo MN there has often been a piano playing in the lower level of the Gonda /Mayo Bldg. lobby.. it does make people ...at least me... feel better about being there.. The Art in the lobbies also serve as distraction ... and that is very good.. Ken
