Poor George. Father in Haeven thank you for watching over George and that nothing worse has happened. Thank you that you have given Sharon a caring heart for others. Continue to be with both of them and the rest of the household they are staying in. Thank you that they have a place to stay and others to visit with.
For Easter I am singing for the morning service than we have a breakfast the regular service and than I may be singing at another church that night.

> Just thought I'd let you know what's been going on lately. I made a
> significant step forward in the music business last week! I had to get what
> is called an Instrument Definition file. This file contains the list of
> banks, (folders), and patches, (instrument sounds on a keyboard), which are
> inside the banks. I've e-mailed back and forth with some people and
> eventually I got the file, apparently already made. then someone from
> canada offered to call me, which he did. He walked me through the process
> of making my computer recognize the banks and patches on my keyboard, using
> that file! Now I'm able to arrow through the banks and patches, and even
> type in the name or part of the name of a type of patch or a specific one,
> and my keyboard responds accordingly! I think the only thing I have left to
> set up, if need be, is what is called a soft synth, which should give me
> some pretty realistic orchestral sounds. I plan to see if I can learn how
> tomorrow! Isn't it something that we can give and get help from people all
> over the world?

> Another thing that's happened is that, 2 Saturdays ago, my housemate George,
> who is 86, I believe, but has the mind of a 1-3-year-old and has been in a
> wheelchair for some time, had a seisure. Horror of horrors, Jose and Blanca
> had to call 911! I asked Blanca if the firemen who came said anything about
> it, relating to my 911 calls. She said no, but they checked! For some
> reason the firemen came toward my room yelling, "hello! Hello!" instead of
> looking for the caregivers in the other direction, which I think was closest
> to the front door. I was sitting at the kitchen table, and I said hello.
> Anyway, they took George to the hospital, where they ran him through tests.
> As far as I know, they still don't know what caused the seisure. He was
> doing well, but they discovered that his hip was broken! when I talked with
> my prayer partner Phil, whose wife is a medical transcriptionist, he said
> that one's bones can be so brittle that just moving around in bed can break
> the hip. Sometimes when we think that a fall has broken it, the hip can
> actually break before the person falls! He had to have surgery to hold the
> bones in place. Poor George doesn't seem to be happy there, which I can
> understand. when Blanca tried to visit with him he'd say, "Never mind!" He
> might come back tomorrow or Tuesday.
>
> what are all your plans for Easter? I don't know yet what we're doing.
> We'll have a party at Daybreak, and we decided to have a bunny gift
> exchange. I drew the name of someone I really like. He's a caring, fun guy
> in his fourties who loves to go fishing. I hope we can go together someday.
> I think he's one of the most high-functioning members of our group. It'll
> be fun to go Easter shopping for friends and family!
