Band turns hospital into a heavy metal concert to make patient’s last wish come true

A terminally ill heavy metal fan had his final wish granted after a Canadian band brought a live concert directly to his hospital. The unnamed young man was receiving care at Bruyère Health’s Saint-Vincent Hospital and wanted to experience a heavy metal show. However, his condition meant he was unable to attend one, so staff on the hospital’s 5 North unit decided to bring the concert to him instead. Clinical chaplain Roshene Lawson helped organize the performance alongside Scott McClinton, owner of Ottawa’s Dominion Tavern.
