Sharing a Song of Hope and Connection

December 23, 2020

The holiday season is an especially poignant time as families and loved ones gather. This year, of course, will be different, as we stay close to home with our households or core bubbles, and those in care won’t have the visitors they normally would.

To acknowledge these struggles and the importance of connection with our loved, ones, Interior Health has partnered with singer, songwriter, and artist, Heather Gemmell, on a song accompanied by images from across our region.

 

Heather takes her inspiration from her community and the beautiful East Kootenay region where she resides. As with all of us, she’s been keeping to her household bubble with her husband and nine-month old daughter.

“We hope you feel the warmth, love, and connection this song is about."

Heather Gemmell

 

To all patients, residents, and families, may the New Year bring renewed hope, peace and joy to you and your loved ones.
