When singer-songwriter Victoria George was diagnosed with a brain tumor in 2024, her life changed overnight. Following surgery and radiation treatment, she turned to songwriting to help make sense of the experience and find her way forward.

One of the songs that emerged from that journey, Every Little Bit, is a heartfelt tribute to the family and friends whose support carried her through recovery.
