Frank Daniel - Funeral Arrangements

Post by manfredvijars » Mon Nov 17, 2014 8:14 pm

As Bill posted earlier, Frank is very ill. He suffered a stroke last month, was sent to Newcastle Hospital, then to Orange and he is now back in Canowindra Hospital. His prognosis is not encouraging, I believe he is paralysed down his left side, is tube fed and frequently incoherent. Frank barely remembers his daughter - often not at all.

Sadly it is highly unlikely that Frank will be going home (or maybe he will, depending on your faith)

(Thanks for the update Bill)

Our thoughts are with Frank, a fine performer and great servant for the ABPA.

Zondrae Frank is still in hospital and there is very little chance that he will be coming out as he is semi paralyzed down the left side and has little recollection of people and things that are around him and his speech is quite a problem.

I get a semi daily report on him Bill Williams
