Page "Jessica McClure" Paragraph 10

In 2010 blues musician Charlie Musselwhite released an album titled " The Well ".

In the title song he credits Jessica McClure's ordeal for inspiring him to quit drinking, stating, " She was trapped in there with a broken arm in the dark, in a life-and-death situation she was singing nursery rhymes to herself and being brave ,"..." It made my problems seem tiny.

So as a prayer to her and myself, I decided I wasn't going to drink till she got out of that well.

It was like I was tricking myself, telling myself that I wasn't going to quit for good, just until she got out.

It took three days to get her out, and I haven't had a drink since.
