I can't believe that the person responsible for the lyrics for the songs I used in my rally cry Is now diagnosed with terminal brain cancer. As much as I am appreciative for my survival, it brings me great pain knowing that Gord Downie is spending his last few months with his family while touring for his fans....and himself...and the band, but I I know this is how he wants to go out.

We will all miss you so much more than you will ever know. Thank you Gord Downie.

I wish their was inspiration I could send his way as he did for me in my time of need.
Well... you could tell 'em what you just told us. I think it would be inspiring for anyone to learn that their work/art had such a significant effect on someone's life.

I don't have a clue if Twitter/Facebook/whatever social media messages actually ever get to the celebrity whose name is attached to it, but it's worth a shot.
