There is a song by Dar Williams called Mortal City. (If you don't know her I think you'll really like her) I tried to find it so you could hear it but I could only find a clip. http://darwilliams.net/music/mortalcity.html (I confess I didn't look very long)
Anyway the background of the story is a horrible icy storm and the city asks the city to shut off their power so the hospital could have it. Part of the lyrics reminds me of this.
"I think I have a special kind of hearing tonight, I hear the neighbors upstairs, I hear my heart beating I hear one thousand hearts beating in the hospital
and one thousand hearts by their bed side waiting, saying, that's my love, in the white gown.
That is beautiful! And it captures the moment perfectly. I will have to search her out - sometimes I have luck on YouTube. (Then, if I like them I'll go on to iTunes or whatnot.) Thanks!

It's a beautiful part of the song.
