So many thoughts ran through my head while watching the movie “Sick Around The World”. I felt saddened and at the same time hopeful that someday health system in the U.S. can get better.

symphony. The seventh movement‚ called ‘The Sick Moon‚’ gave me chills‚ as it was able to inject devastation in me. Some of the audiences had tears dropping down their faces‚ feeling the heartfelt movement through a so-called story telling of the vocal singing.
