Gone Fishin'

Late last night Donny told us "he went fishing with some really nice guys at Lake Houston and Corpus. No it wasn't Corpus but Conroe. It was a really good deal, but he didn't catch any fish so he wanted his money back and he had a receipt". Donny Farmer has not fished a day in his life. This morning when he say his hand he stated, "I knew I did this on that darn boat".

He thinks "we should charge admission for all the visitors and let them know in 4 years he has recovered". His sense of humor has returned for sure.

I finally convinced him I would record the Elite XC fight for him tonight on Showtime. Our friend, KJ Noons if fighting this evening and by gosh Donny was "going home to watch it and then he'd come back tomorrow". He has talked continuously about this fight and that "he is not going to miss it, he didn't care what the doctors said".

Today has been busy. He sat up and has some breakfast and has been sitting bedside a few times since. He is very, very weak but understands he has to work hard to get his strength back. He is doing remarkably well. Still requiring a little oxygen and insulin, but other than antibiotics and high blood pressure medicine, all meds have been stopped.

Sorry for the late update and from here on out, it may only be once a day update. Donny's recovery is of course my priority and right now he needs me more than ever. So far he has been a fairly good patient, he just cannot get comfortable and rest. Coming out of the sedation is "yucky" he says. But luckily he has commented several times "he knows he has to eat healthy and exercise". If ever I can recommend one thing, it is to pay attention to your body, eat right, exercise and reduce your stress. Life is way too short. I can assure you Donny will soon be reading "Don't Sweat the Small Stuff, It's All Small Stuff".

Please keep the prayers going for Donny and our friend, Bill Losa. Both are amazing men, wonderful fathers, awesome husbands and very dear to our hearts.

Until tomorrow, I send my love to all, Darla
