A first-string friendship
After returning from a European concert tour, world-renowned cellist Denis Brott was admitted to the CHUM’s intensive care unit after being diagnosed with COVID-19. The care teams helped him as he valiantly fought against multiple complications—including inducing a coma for 32 days—until he emerged victorious from his arduous battle.
Denis was able to pull through as a result of the exceptional care he received, but also thanks to support from a music-loving CHUM doctor who, despite not having Denis as his patient, made sure to come to visit him every day during his stay at the hospital. The doctor’s reassuring presence, the music he played for Denis and the virtual meetings he set up with family gave the famous cellist a new lease on life.
Denis, more than anyone else, knows how lucky he was to receive world-class care right at his doorstep and make a new lifelong friend at the same time. He has since made a full recovery, and he is profoundly grateful to all the people who treated, encouraged and supported him while he was at his worst during his hospital stay. Denis Brott now organizes concerts for the CHUM staff to thank the organization and support its care teams in his own special way.
Yes! For the first time in the CHUM’s history, all Quebecers will get the chance to attend the Christmas Concert, a benefit we organized for the holiday season for our hospital patients.
