    Wonderful short program, Patrick! I’m so proud of you! Best of luck on the long program.

    You look a bit different at the CBC interview after the short program. More mature, I guess. Did the Olympics end the innocent age of yours? No matter how you change, Patrick, you’ll always have a special place in my heart.

    Much love,
    Sarah

    Dear Patrick,

    I’m so happy to learn that you intend to hang on to Phantom of the Opera for next season. I absolutely LOVE that long program. It’s my favorite piece of music too.

    I’m prepared to be moved again by your long program at the World’s.

    That was such a brilliant short program today. Your skating always captivates me ;) CANNOT WAIT TO SEE PHANTOM OF THE ICE! Go for the gold :)

    It was totally worth waking up early to watch the live broadcast! I only wish there was a larger Canadian crowd to cheer you on in Italy…

    Does anybody have the link to the CBC interview? I wasn’t able to catch it.

    Your biggest fan,
    Kelsey

    Congratulations on another silver medal, Patrick. :) That is quite an accomplishment.
    While I know that the LP wasn’t everything you wanted it to be, you skated beautifully. And did so many things…so well.
    It’s all about the process…the experience…and I trust that it was a memorable and fulfilling one for you. I was with you, in Spirit, through each moment.
    My best, always,
    Kent
