Volunteering strikes a chord with piano teacher
Michelle Park, a piano teacher, was in treatment for acute myeloid leukemia in 2014 when she entered the lobby at Fred Hutch Cancer Center and heard the familiar strains of a favorite Debussy piece, Claire de Lune. A musician sat at the piano, playing “Song of the Moonlight,” one of Park’s favorite pieces, for patients coming and going. Park vowed that she would sit at that bench when her doctors gave her the all-clear.
