A story about David Bowie: "Around 2002-03, David Bowie was on tour and he played my city. I had an acquaintance from da klubb who had cancer... 22 year old girl. Her cancer was so bad that tumors made it impossible for her to walk and she was in the hospital permanently when he came through. She left the hospital to see the show and she was the only person he let backstage. She was ecstatic. She immediately went back to the sterile cold hospital to deal with real life again... and the very next day he shows up unannounced to bring a little bit of happiness to her.
I hope he got all the support that he gave. It's not easy being around sick people, and he didn't have to. The world needs more people like him."
Requiescat in Pace, David. You sucked the marrow out of life and made your time count for something.
