[QUOTE="Keelty, post: 2568682, member: 2195"] This was on Lia's Facebook page and she gave me permission to post it here on OSA. "I don't post much except to share things others have posted. With that said, I'll I give you an update on Donald Franson. Early in June we went to Clarehouse for 10 days which ended up being a respite for both of us. For me, being the full-time caregiver of a very ill person makes me testy and extremely tired and not always thinking straight. Getting our batteries recharged was a huge blessing! We came home and enjoyed some time together as well as with family. Don went to the Jenks Aquarium for Father's Day and the following Tuesday he felt good enough to go fishing for a couple of hours. He caught (and released!) several small fish ... and I can't remember what kind of fish! We have a wonderful hospice team in place (Grace Hospice) that come 3-5 times a week since we've returned from Clarehouse to check up not on just Don but me also. At least twice a week (sometimes three times!) I get a chance to get out of the house to go to the grocery store to get more things that we've used up or just want or do what ever needs to be taken care of that week. I call this my *mental health break*!!! This past weekend being the 4th of July ... has been hard on Don. The fireworks make such a racket that it distresses him and cause great agitation. We were still hearing them last night in our neighborhood! Loud noises are very startling so we try and keep things as calm and quiet as possible here at the house. Don's stamina is greatly diminished and he no longer gets up and moves around unless it's necessary. We are back on the waiting list to return to Clarehouse. Thank you for your prayers. Without those prayers we would be very lost. For those of you who wish to do something for us, do what God has laid on your heart. " [/QUOTE]
