have you brought
back the gifts.."
That's me playing
a didjeridoo
| In January of 1999, while in the midst of the Peace Prayer music tour, Heather became debilitatingly ill, was terminally diagnosed with stage 4 breast to bone cancer. In December of 1999, after she had recorded Spirit On Fire while lying flat on her back in bed where she had spent much of the year, Heather wrote the following.
"In the year since I was given months to live, friends and family have poured out so much love, prayer and support that Frankie and I have felt lifted and carried beyond our wildest dreams. This recording is dedicated to all of you.
Spirit On Fire expresses my journey through the fire of transformation, times of ecstasy and of despair, of lightness and of longing. Many of the songs were written years ago and were unconsciously prophetic, metaphors that became all too concrete! | ||
| Only one, Return the Love, came during my illness. While close to death in the hospital, I wondered if I could possibly survive. Then I fell asleep. I heard a choir singing the chorus in my dreams. Every time I have sunk low there have been dream messages of inspiration and hope. |  V for victory 2/99 |
