Good morning everybody
Since I received MEGA pm's this morning after I posted frans message yesterday, I felt I needed to explain some things from my point of view. Even though some pm's were nasty.....I'll be as kind as I can here.....
--------------------------------------------------------------
I posted the message that was sent to me from Fran's helper. I'm not certain if she is a health care worker or a good friend of Frans, either way, I received it in my pm yesterday. I emailed back at one point and asked if she wanted me to post it since it said at the bottom to share with her friends. She asked me to please post it. So I did. I know Fran only from being on her friends list here at DS. I posted it on the FM board as this is where I first joined her friends list and assumed there are many here who also would want to know how her recovery is going.
I am not her home care worker, nor her helper....I've never met Fran, I'm only sending the message as I was asked to. If this is a way that I can help Fran then I will. For those of you who messaged me asking me not to post it here, I ask that you don't read the post if it bothers you. There are people here who DO want it posted and DO want the update. The words "Fran Update" are always put in the title so its easy for those who prefer not to read it, to skip over it.
For those of you who read it and do appreciate it, and replied with a message to her, I know that's what makes her happy and gives her support she needs. Therefore, posting it here is a good thing for her. And that's whats important for a SUPPORT GROUP.
Fran, if you're reading this hon, I wish you well and will continue to post your updates on the FM board if I see someone else has not yet been able to get it here. There are MANY here who love and care about you and want you to keep your chin up and keep fighting!!!
Your in our thoughts and prayers! xoxo

I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
I think it will only help Fran, to get messages from those who care about her welfare.
Thank you, Mizzie, for doing this!
P.S. Everyone who wants to be friends with Fran is already on her friend's list, can request to be on her friend's list and get the same PM's/updates from her worker.
