 How have you survived all that you have been through? This has been a nightmare for both of us. I hope that one day you feel my gratitude's us back. I feel like this has put a dent in our path. How can I pave a way to our new... I'm lost in my pain in fear you won't want to wait. Basically I was on a crosswalk and a car ran over my legs. I was pretty banged up. And I've always loved singing, always took singing lessons and even in the hospital started to come up with this song just in my head. Always took singing lessons but never wrote my own. About six or eight weeks after the accident I had a singing teacher come to my house. I couldn't walk. The first song I wrote was called I Got Run Over by an SUV. And then it just every few weeks or months I'd come up with another song and each song is a development of my recovery. Yeah I liked that one. Did you... were you happy with yours? I was happy with mine, yeah. Can we hear it? I was playing golf in Sharon Mass. Just finished the 18th hole, went out to my car to check my cell phone and I got a message from a stranger saying your wife was run over by a car and she's at Mass General Hospital. And then I went to Mass General Hospital and saw her bruised, cut, broken concussion. She was fighting for understanding of why this happened to her on a crosswalk at a stop sign that she was crossing the street and this girl didn't stop. Went through the crosswalk, made a turn, ran over her legs with both wheels front and back and gave her a concussion as her head hit the car. And she just kept on going for about a hundred yards until she stopped trying to understand what happened. It was horrific. She needed something that was cathartic to really get rid of the pain that she suffered mentally and physically. And thus she started writing songs. This is my song book. And I should probably... It kind of has all my notes on where to take my breath and what the song's all about. I mean, I know I wrote the song. I know I came up with it. I should probably be able to memorize it, but it doesn't really happen. Ready? It helped me figure out the stages of how to put together an album, a professional album with musicians. And so he introduced me to Mary, the piano player, and the drummer, Matt. And we've been practicing, rehearsing, and today's a big day. Trying to nail it. My name's Jack Byrne. I'm a musician, singer-songwriter, music teacher, and Megan's teacher. My dad's a guitar player. And we kind of grew up at my house, kind of just doing sing-alongs all the time. All my siblings play instruments. Yeah, I've been playing since I was 10. As a songwriter myself, I get the idea of putting emotion into a song and expressing the deepest feelings you have into music. And just everything that Megan's been through and the way she's been able to put it into a song has really been impressive to me as a teacher and a songwriter as well. She's come a long way. What happened to her really shook her up, and I think she's witnessed her kind of heal throughout the whole process. And kind of find a newfound confidence as well in both, just like in life, but also in her musical abilities and in her voice, you can hear it as well. Next song we're going to do is Crushed. My favorite tune. It's a big one. My fate has been crushed My fate has been crushed My fate Everybody goes through tragedy and everybody goes through illness and horrible experiences in our life and music has been such a healing way for me to express all that I've been through. Luckily, not too many people get run over by a car, but it's been so incredible to be able to express how I feel through the music. One thing that I'm very grateful about the accident is that it has really gotten me to appreciate life every day, every moment. We never know what's going to happen. And singing, it just feels so alive and so real and so perfect in a way. You know, when I nail a song and just write a song that just moves me, it feels good. It feels healing. It feels pretty incredible to have my voice on tape and I've been thinking about this for a long time and to actually hear them is kind of mind-blowing. Yeah, a lot of emotions. Going back to how I felt when I wrote the song it got wrenching at times and I can't believe how far I've come. And just kind of dreaming about the possibility is scary and exciting of what I could do with my music. But I realized how important it is for me to create music and I was thinking last night that I remember as a kid I always wanted to be Judy Garland. I always wanted to sing and dance and be in the Wizard of Oz and sing somewhere over the rainbow. I just can barely believe that I actually wrote all these songs and sang them and that they're a real live thing. A couple of days in the studio I'm full circle doing so well and made such an incredible recovery. But more I feel like I have hope again that I have hope for the future for living really out of my dream and what's really important to me. I realize how hard it is for women and maybe everybody but to really even dream like it's scary to even go for something and to be passionate about something but I'm so passionate about music, always have been and I'm excited to share these with the world and see where they go. I don't know if I'll ever get over my fears. I'm scared a lot of the times. But I just keep going anyway and keep doing things anyway if I'm scared or not scared. So even if you're scared, you gotta go for it. I'm so glad I just went for it and I'm doing this. I'm very, very grateful.
