Shannon Bower is trying to catch her breath. It91裸聊视频檚 been a whirlwind 48 hours since the phone call.

Her good friend, David Muise, had the offer of a lifetime.

He has to work Friday evening, so he asked if Shannon would like his ticket for the Elton John91裸聊视频檚 Farewell Yellow Brick Road The Final Tour performance at BC Place?

The British pop legend, who performs Friday, Oct. 21, is one of only three bucket list worthy concerts that the Langley City woman would ever want to see in her life 91裸聊视频� Sir Elton, Queen when still fronted by Freddy Mercury, and Linda Ronstadt.

Thrilled at the prospect of going to see the concert, her mind started working as to how she could somehow use this as an opportunity to pay it forward and support a cause dear to her heart 91裸聊视频� Langley Memorial Hospital, through its . Bower has worked at the hospital for 21 years and anyone would be hard pressed to find a bigger booster.

91裸聊视频淚 am this hospital91裸聊视频檚 biggest fan. I have the best job, and I love this place,91裸聊视频� Bower said. 91裸聊视频淭he only job I ever wanted.91裸聊视频�

When she received the ticket offer, she knew she wanted to make the most of the opportunity, aware that Elton John is a big supporter of health care, music, and sports in various places through his charities.

91裸聊视频淚 didn91裸聊视频檛 really know what it was at that moment [that she could do to get his attention], but about four o91裸聊视频檆lock in the morning, I woke up and knew what I was going to do,91裸聊视频� Bower said.

Bower will be attending with David91裸聊视频檚 wife, Terry, and her friend. They plan to head down early to see if Bower can deliver a gift to Sir Elton or his people 91裸聊视频� a custom boutonniere, a copy of the book Hospital on the Hill, and literature about the Langley Memorial Hospital Foundation and the work it does to support local health care.

She wanted to include something floral and called Langley Highland Flower Shop. Ironically, the designer, Kari Kleef, used to be part of a team in the Okanagan that would provide flowers and other decor for Sir Elton, who has a Canadian husband and has spent time in the Kelowna area.

So the florist created a boutonniere using elements based on the musician91裸聊视频檚 preferences, such as pink garden roses, English ivy, bunny tail, dusty miller, and more.

91裸聊视频淗e doesn91裸聊视频檛 like red. He doesn91裸聊视频檛 like white. He doesn91裸聊视频檛 like baby91裸聊视频檚 breath. He likes garden roses and garden flowers,91裸聊视频� Bower learned.

Her gift package is all in aid of trying to get more attention and hopefully financial support for the hospital where she has held many different job titles ranging from care aide to equipment manager.

91裸聊视频淲ell, my life is my job,91裸聊视频� she said.

She doesn91裸聊视频檛 know if she91裸聊视频檒l get anywhere with her last-minute campaign to catch Elton91裸聊视频檚 eye, but doesn91裸聊视频檛 want to have any regrets.

91裸聊视频淚91裸聊视频檓 just [going to be] too close to him not to try,91裸聊视频� Bower said.
