Marie - September 11th

41 replies

Most of us that use TDR will know what September 11th means and this day will be upon us shortly once again. 2001 brought us the attacks in the US and 2002 brought us the day Marie was taken ill. September 11th will always be a significant day for us all. Some in more ways than one..... I know where I was in 2001 when the first plane his the world trade centre and I know where I was in 2002 when I heard Marie was taken ill....

Just want to wish Marie one year on, happiness good health and lots of love.....

Faith

Faith is not a rose to see,
a stone to touch, or a place to be.
Instead it’s something deep inside,
that gives your soul strength to confide.

Faith is the power over life’s confusion,
some will tell you it’s only an illusion.
No more real gift will you ever own,
than the freedom to be one of God’s own.

Faith gives us love and peace within,
it guides us clear of pain and sin.
Let it drive your every deed,
and give you vision of things to be.

Faith will shadow all your fears,
and allow Gods hand to dry your tears.
Open your heart and give faith a home,
and no day in your life will you be alone.

want news about her
and not just all bad romurs that is on net

I don’t know which bad rumours you’re talking about - but if we don’t here something (positve) new about her soon (in the talkshow on Wednesday...) I think they are all true!
I really feel bad! September 11th is my birthday btw... I’m really afraid what will happen this time! I hope to get postive news on Wednesday - but I don’t think so...
I think, if Per doesn’t say anything about Marie that can only mean bad things... and we will see if he tries to lie about her...

Awwww I wanted this to be a topic to talk about Marie and perhaps give off positve vibes... but oh well...

I don’t think people on TV should question Per, it puts him in a bad position and it is not fair on him... he should tell them where to go...

Mr/Miss Moderator... I put this in wrong section, please could you move it to the Roxette topic... Thanx...

I am talking about Marie!
I’m really sorry that I don’t have positive vibes to give. And I don’t want the public to ask Per questions about Marie - but I think he should tell by himself. If he doesn’t do that, we’ll know why!
I only think, you’re talking about septmeber 11th, because you remeber all the bad things that happened that day - so everyone else will think of it, too! And the talkshow is on september 10th... That’s only one day before - so everyone will think about Marie and remember - and then it’s only natural to ask Per about her!
I’m just worried becouse there were’t any positive news for such a long time...

Of course I wish Marie all the best there is!

maybe we all should take the day 11th of september and just listen to Marie for a day, no roxette, per or GT...

I did that a week after the 11th of sept last year.... for a week i almost only listened to marie....

atleast we could listen to her that day....

as far as I know Per said a month ago that marie is better and working on a new alvum, isn’t that good news?

@ Lurirox - No I was not meaning you, I was hoping perhaps we could use this thread as a kind of pray board for Marie, just to send our best wishes to her.... hence my poem!!

@ Daniel alv - Yeah I agree with you, I will play Marie throughout the day.... I did the same last year, I played Marie for a month non stop!!

well, i don’t agree.

the sept. 11 was in 2001 a horrible day, that’s right.

and after 2002 i kept thinking “omg, this is a cursed day”.

but some newspaper once said, that the concussion saved marie’s life, because it made her recognise the cancer.

so, for ny 9/11 was a horrible day, but for marie it was a lucky one.

it looks as if the day itself wanted to say “hey, i’m not that bad”.
stupid, i know.

Maybe I am wrong but I believe that everything will be O.K. with Marie. All we can do is pray for Marie’s health comming back. Per is best Marie’s friend but he also knows that everyone of us-Fans worries about her condition and the future of Roxette.But ther is nothing we can do and Per tries to give us some hope. I completly agree with ally77.

of course she will be OK, and yes, on 11th she fell but that made her go to hospital and doctors could find the tumor, so after all, it wasn’t that bad, they could operate her on time, start the treatment on time.. and SHE WILL BE OK!!

She didn’t get a cold, you know, but something a lot worse, and of course it takes TIME TO RECOVER, so stop all these doubts, think POSITIVE, she WILL BE FINE :))))

Yeah let’s have less negative thoughts and more POSITIVE ones!!

I think Marie has done really well this year, I am proud to see her out and about, it must be hard for her everytime she wanders into a shop or goes to a concert to have a newspaper reporter shoving a camera in your face and saying “smile”. Marie if I were you I would do a Bjork and punch them, they will soon get the message!!

but isnt this message juat to make the fans to calm down. maybe its untrue as some fans already thoght

@ Ted, just try and be more POSTIVE.... Rumours are exactly what they are RUMOURS... I would not belive anything I read unless it comes from Marie herself although I am pleased with the statement today made by D&D, it was long overdue!!

The normal recovery period for such an operation is consistent with this timescale so I guess there isn’t very much news to report.

Although fans would be comforted to hear more announcements that Marie is feeling better, we can interpret this from the facts: Marie has got her hair back and is making public appearances again.

Peace and love to Marie, Rich-UK xxx

@Ted: The Daily Roxette certainly doesn’t publish “untrue” things. This is information coming directly from Marie’s management. STOP reading things into it that it doesn’t say. The message says “Marie is fine, the doctors say she feels the way she’s exptected to feel.” I.E. this is PERFECTLY NORMAL when you have had cancer.

will try to believe.

have u heard romurs too? before this statement

@ Ted... do you ever shut up!!

Marie: We hope to see you back soon!
But take your time to recover.
We all love you!!!!!!!!!

“Marie: We hope to see you back soon!
But take your time to recover.
We all love you!!!!!!!!!”

I agree with you

For Marie I wish only the best, and that she will be fine very soon again, maybe she is already OK now. ;)

I´m afraid before tomorrow :(
But I´m sure Marie will be OK.
Me make only the day September 11th afraid.
2001 happends terror in america and 2002 with Marie. Before this week is over I´m afraid what happends this year. :´(

Will Marie you’re a lot on my mind these days. Wish you the best.

@Roxeanne nice way to look at this day. you’re right...

@ ally hey n...everything ok

i still remember this prayer.....from http://worship.roxette.org/

PRAYER FOR MARIE

Dear God,

There are no words for the depth of our feelings for Marie.
We pray for her healing.
We pray for her care and protection.

Please, send your angels to bless and surround her always.
May she always see you at the center of her life.
May she grow strong,
May she be healthy.
May she be blessed,
To live most fully and love most deeply.
To continue to give the world her songs.

That is our wish.
That is our prayer for her forever.
We ask for a miracle for Marie...
We surrender her into your hands.

Amen

Marie will be fine! She’ll return as always queen of all stages...I feel it. Stop this negativity, please.

...always POSITIVE,

BadMoon ;)

“ABSOLUTE MARIE FREDRIKSSON” always on my mind.

That poem was so sweet....

i’m sure marie will be fine!!!! she’s a great woman!

but today i changed my thoughts about 9/11.
it IS a horrible day.

this is weird:
attack on the usa, marie getting ill, anna lindh dead.

and besides that, the town i live in, darmstadt (germany) was bombed this day 59 years ago.
we had 12 000 (!!!!!) victims and several hundretthousand injureds in one single night.

well also on 11th Sept 1714 the catalan troops lost against Felipe V of Borboun. As a consequence, Catalonia which up until this time had been a totally sovereign nation, lost all its national rights and liberties. Felipe V of Bourbon abolished Catalonia’s own laws and substituted them with the (foreign) Castlilian laws. He also banned the use of the Catalan language and culture and imposed Castilian as the sole language.

In 1932 Catalonia acquired a Statute of Autonomy and got back some of those national rights.. but then the Spanish Civil War started and Mr. Franco abolished the Statute and the strictest of the repressions ever was imposed to Catalan citizens.. :(

We haven’t still got all those rights .. so that’s why on 11th Sept many Catalans continue to demonstrate in order to claim the recognition of our national rights and a greater degree of auto-government (as we had back in 1700) ..

So today it’s the “Diada de Catalunya” (National Day of Catalonia) .. my catalan flag is hanging off my balcony here in Vienna!!

11 sep is the worst day ever... maybe we should skip that day next year?

today is my mom’s birthday, best wisher for her and maire, i love u all!

@daniel_alv: Good idea!! Just skip and throw it out any imaginable calendar.

Well, if we skip it next year, could somebody please give me another birthday then? So that I can be happy on my birthday for once.

Happy birthday Helle18. I wish you the best!

Yeah HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!

What happened to the news article on the front page??

yeah, you can share mine, 11 of july, that’s a good day...

Is there any special reason why the message from D&D suddenly disappeared this afternoon?

It’s being rephrased, nothing else. It’ll be back.

well, if helle18 is born on sept.11, the day can’t be that bad, right? :-)

happy birthday anyway!

My thoughts go out to Marie on this day - this has probably been the most difficult year of her life. However, I doubt it helps to have everyone question reports on her health. I believe if we, as her fans, want to help her, we need to think positively for her. It is very counterproductive to keep asking negative questions and assuming the worst.

Marie is strong and getting stronger every day so just respect her some privacy and be patient.

PS - Happy Birthday Helle18

Well said Shane could not agree more... I am sure we all love Marie and all she need is POSTIVE vibes and less NEGATIVE ones...

Marie,

Looking forward to see you perform again with Roxette, when you are ready for it!

@ hella18 - I can share my birthday with you! You just have to tell everyone that your birthday will be moved to september 5... ;)

Happy birthday btw! ;)
