A Christmas Concert at Boston Children's Hospital

"They had to finish the concert.

"Sophie Fellows, a wispy 9-year-old with a love of the violin, was diagnosed with a brain tumor last week, a day after she was stricken with a painful headache in the middle of a holiday concert in Vermont.

"With her surgery scheduled for Friday, her friends and music teacher filled a room at Boston Children's Hospital Thursday, performing a Christmas concert that was both sweet and tenderly sad. They wanted to give back something that had been taken away."

A recent Boston Globe article reported on the outreach of Sophie's friends and teacher and on the completion of the concert at Boston Children's Hospital.
