In the faces of our children

I stumbled across this video this afternoon, and curious, decided to view it. To my astonishment, I found myself in tears.



I don't weep that easily. Mothers can't.

Maybe it's because this is sung by mothers, who also happen to be doctors, and they're in danger, trying to help others in danger.

Anyway, I sat transfixed, while the Resident Fan Boy, who does cry easily, sniffled behind me.

(The song "Rise Again" was written by Nova Scotian Leon Dubinsky, who, coincidentally, appeared in Life Classes, one of my favourite films. The Rankin Family recorded it in 1993, and since then, it's been a Canadian standard.)
