hello miss sarah-
i found out what happened through the who mailing list...

"Edmonton's show was better. The sound quality was clearer. The guitar
electrical problems added a bit of a worry - like when Pete first got
a shock - finger/hand... I was watching in the binoculars and I said
- he's hurt (thinking he'd slashed a finger/hand...) then he went to
the mic and got zapped (looked like through the mouth) and staggered
backward (not to the underground) into his amp stack, knocking them
around.....and Zak stopped - in the middle (ok, near the end) of WGFA
as did everyone else, .... and Pete, as Bill and the rest of the
backstagers ran out to hold him up waved Zak and the band on.....

And Pete returned so quickly - new guitar, a half step further from
the mic.....and the band played on."

Whoa!
Scary.
Thank the good Lord he's ok!!
Really.

Sarah,
When you first arrived at Pete's blog, I remember thinking, you reminded me, of me! You lost your Dad at about 19 or younger, right? I lost my Dad at 19. I also lost a lot of family; one right after the other....my grandparents were all gone by the time I was 16, my favorite and only maternal uncle, died about 1 year before my Dad, then 9 months after my dad died, another favorite cousin died..in the past 26 years, after loosing my dad, I have lost 2 more cousins, one extremely sudden, and the other cousin, 4 years younger then me, to an AIDS related illness...she was a heterosexual female, I've lost two more uncles, my aunt's husbands, whom I adored......In the space between, I was married, and had two beautiful children. I have had many fun, wonderful times, and I pray for many more to come. I even think about what my grandchildren will call me. Certainly, NOT GRANDMA!!!! Ah, but that is a long way off, as my oldest is only 14...
Having witnessed the tragedy of 9/11, as a Mother, I was depressed. I thought, "what have I done? why did I bring more lives into this effed up world?"
But, slowly, the joys and splendors of life took over, and sadness was replaced by acceptance.
I don't have the answers, but I think life is for the living, and we are here to carry on, and make the best of ourselves, and do the best for each other. Life is a gift. And, I hope your "present" brings you much happiness for at least another 100 years, so you better take care of yourself!!

Sarah, smile!

Sarah,

I just read your post on Rachel's blog. I'm sorry to hear that you're down. I'm a dozen years older than you and lost a lot of family by your age too.

Keep in mind that you will feel better...even though you think that you might not want to feel better, in a way....like feeling better, feeling normal is like forgetting your Dad, not keeping him alive.

But it's not, you'll always feel close to him and no one will ever doubt your pain and love for him. My father died when I was 9 and I never forget him or fail to think about him everyday. I've got a job to do in life and I'm doing it, I'm happy, I laugh...but some moments I let myself feel just as bad as I did on the day he died. I think that's a good thing too.

You're a sharp, hip kid. Your father wants you to be happy...to laugh, have fun, and live...and to carry him with you as you do.

Now, have a laugh, have fun and do your job!

Sarah

You take care of yourself
It is hard dealing with grief.
I lost my Mum when i was 24 and it is HARD
The sun DOES shine again though ........ some days in fact it shines brighter than it did before because of what you have learnt about yourself through grief - if that makes sense?
Honest - I have some BAD days when I curl up and am just - well crap.
But MOST of the time I am happy and fulfilled and spend my time cherishing those around me

If ever you want a chat you now know where to find me ....... OK?

Love and a BIG FAT Burger induced hug
Love Bex xxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hi Sarah,
So sorry to be so slow...but I also wanted to offer my love and support to you at this time...
I am sorry you have had so much loss at such a young age.
I thought I had it bad watching my mom slowly die in a coma, but it wasn't YEARS it was only MONTHS.
Funny how seeing what others have gone through has given me perspective - and I see that it was actually a BLESSING because she didn't suffer for long.
Anyway, you know where to find me if you ever need to chat (in the middle of the night!).
I'm still an insomniac...wah!

Take care of you.
Lots of love,
Suexxx
