Still do ..” Brinkley captioned her Instagram photo. “Her words often being the only ones I could find to express how I was feeling at the first signs of new love or after disappointment or heartbreak ..I sang ‘California’ and ‘River’ as lullabies to my babies and they all know how much her music and art means to me .. So it was my son who called just now to say she is hospitalized tonight after being found un conscience. I hope alll who hear this news will send her heartfelt wishes , prayers, vibes and healing light so we can all continue to be graced by her many talents. #jonimitchell”
