Help Ursa Recover!

On May 29th, 2020, Ursa Meyer, FHS’ multi-instrumentalist and vocalist, suffered a severe stroke, which left her paralyzed on her right side. She is at the Elisabeth Bruyere Hospital’s rehabilitation program in Ottawa working to regain her speech and mobility.

She has a Long Road Home ahead of her, but she is tackling her challenges with characteristic dedication, good humour, and hard work. Though she has far to go, she is making progress faster than anyone had anticipated. Nothing is going to stop this girl from Moving On! She has Focus and drive.

We hope that it won't be too long before she can rejoin us on stage.

Ursa will need a lot of rehabilitative therapy once she is released from hospital. Fiddlehead Soup has released this single, written by Ursa herself. What Happens When is a song about dealing with loss. All the funds raised from sales will go towards Ursa’s treatment. Should there be an excess of funds, they will be donated by the family to help similar stroke victims in their own journeys to recovery.

lyrics

What Happens When...

What happens after passion fades,
When rainbow blooms drift to grey
What happens when I'm just in your way
But I love you still the same?

What happens when a kiss seems pure routine
When "good night" replaces "I love you, sweet dreams"
When tears are shed you've never seen
But I love you still the same?

What happens when the words are brief
When smiles are simply clean white teeth
When I go to bed in empty sheets
But I love you still the same?

What happens when I am all alone
Not even a message you've sent by phone
What happens when your arms are no longer my home
But I love you still the same?
(Once we were inseparable)
