Your prayers might have helped.

Mr. Gibb seems to have astounded Doctors.

Let's hope the trend continues.

Maybe an appropriate clip?
I dunno. The story made me think of it:

Sirius/XM 60s on 6 played "First of May" this morning to help listeners remember Robin's on-going health issues.

One of the more unmemorable tunes from the Bee Gees early years.
Those who danced were thought to be quite insane by those who couldn't hear the music.

The announcer spoke of the Robin connection to this song. As Wikipedia puts it: "The song was partially responsible for the departure of Robin Gibb from the Bee Gees. Robin had wanted his song, "Lamplight," to be the album's first single, while Barry preferred "First of May." In the end, Barry's judgment won, and Robin quit the band."
