00:01 Hi, I am Dr. Kim Logan Nowlin. I'm Arthur Nowlin.
00:03 And welcome to Making It Work.
00:37 Today, we're going to talk to a very special guest.
00:39 She wears many, many hats. She's many roles.
00:42 But today she is here to talk about parenting,
00:46 role reversal, and the impact
00:49 it has had on her life.
00:50 Welcome Joanne Tolson Fuller.
00:52 How are you today? I'm good.
00:54 Thank you so much for having me today.
00:56 Oh, you're very welcome.
00:57 I love you personally because you take care
01:00 of the outer side of me and my inner soul.
01:03 You're my cosmetologist
01:04 and, you know, my beauty care specialist.
01:07 But you've gone through some things in this last year,
01:11 year and half.
01:12 Joanne, tell us your story
01:14 'cause no one knows your story like you.
01:16 Tell us about what has happen to you
01:18 and your parents?
01:20 Well, I've lost both of my parents.
01:24 My mother began the stages of dementia.
01:29 You know, I had so many names for it,
01:30 back then it used to be senility, dementia,
01:34 some people used to call it spell,
01:36 but she went through her stage of dementia
01:40 and I was the first one to notice it in the family
01:45 because I guess, because I'm not there,
01:47 I didn't live with them, where my brother
01:50 that lives in Chicago with them and my dad didn't see it
01:54 but I saw it.
01:56 And so it took them a while to get on board
02:00 as far as realizing what was going on
02:03 and seeking help.
02:07 But during that time that I've noticed it,
02:11 she wouldn't make little statements like
02:15 my cranium is not working today.
02:17 That was her favorite statement.
02:18 When she couldn't remember things
02:20 or when things got her frustrated,
02:22 you know, she would say,
02:23 "My cranium is not working today."
02:25 And...
02:28 Of course it progressed
02:29 because my dad wouldn't take her
02:32 to the hospital or to the doctors.
02:35 He felt like there was nothing wrong with her,
02:36 it was just old age.
02:38 And so, finally things did got to the point
02:44 where she would drive and get lost.
02:47 And we had one incident where she took--
02:50 My dad had her doctor's appointment
02:52 and it was raining and she told him,
02:55 "I'm going to go and see if the car windows are up."
03:01 And he gave her the keys, and she went to the car
03:04 and when he came out from his doctor's appointment,
03:06 she could not be found.
03:09 So my brother calls me
03:10 because they couldn't find her anywhere.
03:12 And he calls me and I told him
03:15 what, did you put out a Amber Alert.
03:17 And so a lot of people think Amber Alert
03:19 is only for children, but it's not.
03:22 So I have to tell him to put out a Amber Alert
03:25 because she does not know.
03:26 I'm sure she does not know where she is going.
03:29 She probably thought she was going back
03:30 to Wisconsin or something
03:32 because she started talking about home a lot.
03:34 Going home, she started talking about her parents.
03:37 And she started talking about
03:40 her brothers and sisters, they were 12 of them,
03:42 but she was talking about them as they were younger.
03:46 And so, we put out a Amber Alert
03:48 and they found her 24 hours later
03:51 in a small town in Indiana.
03:53 And the police had to chase her down.
03:55 They had to shoot the tires out,
03:57 so that she would stop driving.
04:00 And even when they shot the tires out,
04:03 she got out of the car and just started running.
04:06 And so thank God
04:08 that, you know, nothing happened to her,
04:12 that nobody else found her that you know.
04:14 And then when my dad and brother
04:16 finally drove from Chicago to this little town in Indiana,
04:21 she came out, you know, they had her in the back
04:23 and she came out and was like,
04:24 "Hey, what's going on, you know, what you're doing?"
04:27 I mean she really had no-- She did not remember
04:30 what she had done.
04:31 And that was the turning point for my dad to really,
04:36 okay, you know, what?
04:37 This is what you need to do.
04:39 And it was a struggle for all of us,
04:42 but it was really a struggle for him
04:43 because, you know, this was his life mate
04:46 for over 50 years, for over 50 years.
04:50 And what I did was I started looking up information
04:54 for dementia and Alzheimer's,
04:56 and got into contact with Alzheimer's Association.
05:01 And they offered free classes everywhere.
05:04 And so my girlfriend started noticing
05:06 some things about her mom.
05:08 And we decided that we would go to these classes together.
05:11 So we went to these, there was a six week period
05:14 and we went to these classes together for six weeks
05:16 to learn about Alzheimer's,
05:19 to learn how to work with Alzheimer's patients.
05:22 How to deal with them,
05:23 you know, because a lot of people I found
05:26 and I found this with my dad that I have to really tell him,
05:30 you don't have to correct her all the time
05:32 because she is at her own world.
05:35 But she is telling a lie.
05:36 Well, but she doesn't know that is a lie,
05:40 you know, so you can't
05:42 but because then it makes them frustrated
05:44 and that's when they start getting angry,
05:46 so I've learned from the Alzheimer's Association
05:50 that there is their own world.
05:52 So you don't always have to correct them.
05:55 You know, if they say, the sky is red,
05:59 and you know the sky is blue.
06:00 Okay. Okay.
06:03 No, can't you see the sky is blue.
06:05 It frustrates them
06:07 and that's when a lot of the anger
06:08 and a lot of the confusion for them comes out.
06:12 And sometimes it sends them
06:15 spiraling down even to worse.
06:17 So Alzheimer's Association really helped me a lot
06:21 and they continue to send information,
06:25 like I said their classes are free.
06:27 They are free.
06:29 They will teach you how to do everything.
06:30 Excuse me.
06:32 So how long did this process go?
06:35 I mean, you know, when you first recognized it
06:39 and then as it progressed how, what was the time span?
06:41 It was probably about three or four years.
06:44 Okay.
06:45 To the point that she passed.
06:48 Most probably four years.
06:49 And here is your father, you're PK, pastor kid,
06:53 a preacher's kid, and you know,
06:56 I remember your mom being our Sabbath school teacher,
06:59 church, in the church, I mean just busy,
07:01 camp meeting at that corner
07:03 at the Lake Region Camp going out,
07:05 you know with her sister.
07:09 And to see or to have your brother call you
07:14 and say, okay, we found mom,
07:16 you know, did you have to start going back and forth.
07:19 What were your responsibilities all over this?
07:21 I did mainly with my mom because once they realized
07:29 and she did, they did finally put her on some medications
07:34 which helped to keep her a little calm.
07:36 You know, I tell to anyone, my mother to be lethargic,
07:39 to be, you know, like she is--
07:42 you know because some people, they can't function.
07:45 And they just put them on so much medication,
07:48 but we just wanted her to stay calm and to be,
07:52 so that we could work with her.
07:54 And so, once they found out,
07:59 I didn't have to go back as often,
08:01 but what I did with my brother is that I told him,
08:03 he could call me anytime, day or night.
08:06 You know, because I was like his release.
08:09 And but I would go back and kind of help in,
08:14 and just to keep my face in.
08:19 The hardest part was when it got to the point
08:22 where she didn't know who I was.
08:24 And basically she didn't know
08:26 who a lot of us were, didn't know.
08:28 What point was that?
08:29 When Alzheimer's started really progressing,
08:33 who are you again and ask, you know,
08:35 you ask a question.
08:36 Do you have children? Yeah, I have children.
08:39 Well, and then, but she is looking at you like
08:41 who are you, you know.
08:44 So and then even my dad, I guess it had regressed
08:49 or back to the point where they were like dating.
08:52 So he would try to get her ready for bed
08:55 or something like that.
08:56 You can't be doing that. I can't--
08:58 You're not supposed to be in my house,
09:00 you know, that kind of stuff. So it was like, okay.
09:04 And there was one time I came up
09:06 and had cooks for them and was washing dishes
09:11 and my dad told her, okay,
09:14 well, can I get you ready for bed?
09:15 Well, who is going to do it because you can't do it.
09:18 And he said, look behind you,
09:21 look and see who is behind you and he was like...
09:24 She looked behind and you mean
09:26 that lady is going to put me to bed.
09:29 That lady. That lady.
09:31 And another time I went and she had--
09:35 she was walking around with my picture in her hand.
09:38 And because we put all of our pictures
09:42 on her mirror in her bedroom.
09:44 And so she-- I guess she had taken it down,
09:46 was walking around the house with my picture in her hand.
09:48 And finally one evening,
09:50 we were just sitting in the living room,
09:52 talking and everything.
09:53 She looked at the picture
09:55 and she just threw it in the corner.
09:57 And I mean that just kind of like, that crushed me.
10:02 You know, and everybody was looking at me like,
10:04 okay, what is she going to do?
10:05 But I didn't react.
10:06 I didn't react because she didn't know
10:08 what she was doing, you know.
10:10 And, you know, so you through those things,
10:12 so I really-- It's heart wrenching
10:15 to see your parents.
10:17 You know, you think they're going to be there forever.
10:19 You know, we know their life is not forever
10:22 but when it comes to the point that you gonna lose them
10:25 or you're losing them, this is heart wrenching.
10:29 Absolutely. Had your father had a stroke?
10:32 You said he had multiple strokes,
10:33 as your father passed away also recently.
10:36 Did he had any strokes during the time
10:39 your mom was ill?
10:40 No, he didn't.
10:41 Actually God kept him, kept him really healthy.
10:45 All together. Yes, he did.
10:47 And he took care of her.
10:49 There was no way that she is going to a home.
10:52 No way. No way.
10:54 That wasn't even-- That wasn't even an option.
10:55 That wasn't even an option.
10:57 And so, we went and we had to take carpeting up
11:00 in the house and you know,
11:02 put chairlifts up to go up the stairs,
11:07 brought chairs that could--
11:08 the ones that can help you get up.
11:12 We just really just changed the house
11:13 so that she could function in the house.
11:17 And but there was no way
11:19 that he was going to put her in a nursing home.
11:21 So at this point the whole family is devastated.
11:25 Oh, yeah.
11:26 You know, and it's like the more information
11:29 that came out, you know, the more you recognized
11:32 that there was really nothing that could be done.
11:35 But in the meanwhile
11:38 they were also providing you with medication.
11:43 Right. To help.
11:45 What actually did the medication do?
11:47 The medication, one medication just kept her kind of calm.
11:51 One medication was also supposed
11:53 to slow the advancement of this Alzheimer's.
11:57 It was supposed to slow it down.
11:59 It would not take it way.
12:01 It would not even make her go back to,
12:05 it would just kind of slow it down.
12:07 And there's a lot--
12:09 there are lot of medications out there,
12:10 but you have to pick and choose.
12:14 You really do because like what are the medications
12:16 they want to put her on caused fainting.
12:20 Now, my dad was 80 something also,
12:24 so if she faints in the house, so if you take her somewhere,
12:27 she faints, who is going to pick her up.
12:30 That was one of the major side effects of the medicine.
12:35 So we decided not to put her on that medicine.
12:38 But there are lot of different. And you have to ask questions.
12:42 You know, lot of doctors got a little upset with those
12:46 because we'd ask questions and why,
12:49 and, well, we don't that.
12:51 Well, I'm your doctor.
12:53 What do you mean you don't want it?
12:54 But we still ask. We still have a choice.
12:57 So you have to ask questions.
12:59 You have to stand up for your loved ones.
13:05 Did you also receive like assistance from...?
13:10 Yes. Okay.
13:11 Yes, we did receive assistance that came in,
13:14 three to four times a week.
13:15 And they would make sure that she, you know,
13:17 she was taken care of, that she was bathed
13:20 and they would cook, clean, light cleaning,
13:24 maybe even do some light laundry, stuff like that.
13:27 And that really helped my dad.
13:30 And then of course my brother would
13:31 who, he still lives in Chicago.
13:34 He also went over to help.
13:36 So it was-- it's a lot of work but...
13:40 And you still maintained your business here in Detroit.
13:43 You're married, you have a son. Yes.
13:46 And you're women's ministry leader of the church.
13:49 Yes.
13:51 You know, music committee, lot of hats you wear.
13:55 You know, and, you know, your own spirituality.
13:59 How did it impact your spirituality?
14:01 It was hard. It was hard.
14:03 It was rough.
14:06 Actually, it was like,
14:09 you know, how some times you get so busy
14:12 that it's almost you have no time for God
14:15 but I would find myself praying
14:16 while I was on the road a prayer
14:18 because it's like you don't have time to sit and study.
14:21 You don't have time to just
14:23 and so actually it was after my mother passed.
14:28 And, you know, I was really going through and--
14:33 I told, I asked God, you know, You told me
14:35 that You would be a Comforter.
14:37 And I know I haven't been in the word like
14:39 I should have been and I know I haven't been studying,
14:42 but you know, I talked to you everyday
14:45 and even talk and pray while I'm driving,
14:47 I talk and pray while I'm working, whatever.
14:50 And, one morning I got up and I went down
14:53 and I got my Sabbath school lesson,
14:55 I got two different versions of the Bible,
14:58 I got the Desire of Ages, I just and I sat on my bed
15:01 and I was like, okay, Lord, show me something.
15:04 Something like because I felt like I was going crazy.
15:07 I felt like I was losing it.
15:09 And it was really just-- I could just hear His voice
15:13 and He just said, "You need to pull all that away.
15:17 You can't hide behind all of that.
15:19 You need to come directly to me."
15:20 I see.
15:21 And I mean, that morning was just
15:24 and I crawled up at my pillow
15:28 and I held my pillow and I'm telling you,
15:31 when you hear people say,
15:32 they feel like they're in the bosom of God,
15:34 I felt like I was in the bosom of God.
15:37 And I just cried and cried because I couldn't cry
15:40 because I was so busy, I couldn't,
15:42 and then my brothers depended on me,
15:44 I'm the only girl.
15:45 So they depended on me to do, even with the funeral,
15:48 with everything.
15:49 You know, with my dad, like the funeral,
15:51 my dad was like whatever she wants.
15:54 And they would ask questions and they all will look at me,
15:57 whatever she wants.
15:58 Talking about you. Talking about me.
16:00 Whatever I want to do.
16:02 Whatever she says, you all do.
16:04 Whatever, you know.
16:05 So everything I felt like everything was on me.
16:09 So I couldn't break.
16:11 For the services did you do your mother's hair?
16:13 No. No, but I...
16:14 You step back.
16:16 I did step back with that, in fact my sister-in-law
16:18 had to make me step back from
16:19 because I also do obituaries in program,
16:22 lot of desktop publishing she said no,
16:24 you're not going to do that.
16:25 You gonna be a daughter.
16:27 Today, I'm going to be your daughter today.
16:28 I didn't sing for her funeral.
16:30 But just-- but what I did,
16:32 I gave her one of my dresses that she loved,
16:35 and I did have them put that on her
16:37 and but yeah...
16:38 Did you make that? No.
16:40 She sows also beautifully,
16:43 wedding coordinator and just everything.
16:45 Oh, she can cook and bake.
16:47 My goodness, I directed this wedding
16:50 and when I do weddings, I call on Joanne,
16:52 and she did this beautiful arrangements
16:55 of all the desserts.
16:56 Remember that wedding? I remember.
16:58 And it was absolutely fad
16:59 and the wedding cake was unbelievable,
17:01 delicious, Joanne made that.
17:03 So just multitalented and we just went to a wedding
17:07 that Joanne coordinated,
17:08 but as she was in the wedding too.
17:11 And that was a beautiful wedding.
17:13 That's almost like a release, you know,
17:18 that do you do so many things, you know,
17:21 it's like a cover, as you are indicating,
17:24 you know, you were involved, couldn't cry, you know, but...
17:27 I couldn't break down.
17:28 You couldn't break down 'cause...
17:29 I don't have time to break down.
17:31 You were involved in all these different things,
17:32 you know, but when you really came to the point
17:36 where you had to release, you recognized that to God
17:42 delivering a message to you that you had to go to him
17:45 straightforward, you know,
17:47 without any other distractions.
17:49 He wanted you to connect with him.
17:52 And how did you feel at that moment, you know,
17:54 when you did connect?
17:55 I'm telling you, it was-- and I understand,
17:59 I understand what people say
18:02 that you're in the bosom of Jesus
18:05 because that's how I felt.
18:06 I felt like I was,
18:08 I felt literally like he'd wrapped me up
18:11 and I was just in his chest crying,
18:14 just in His bosom just crying.
18:16 I mean because I had developed
18:20 high blood pressure and diabetes.
18:22 What? After my mother passed.
18:24 What?
18:25 Never, never had any issues with that, never.
18:29 And then up until last-- Well,
18:32 last year they were getting ready to take me off
18:34 of all the medicine and then my dad passed.
18:38 And then your dad passed. So it flared up again.
18:40 Okay. Mercy.
18:42 Yeah. So...
18:44 Was there a difference in the way you responded,
18:47 you know, when your mother passed
18:49 and your dad passed?
18:50 I was a daddy's girl. Okay.
18:52 Yes, she was. I was a daddy's girl.
18:54 So that was, that was hard.
18:58 That was really, really, really, really hard.
19:01 And with my dad, I was really on the road
19:05 because now it was just my brother there
19:08 taking care of my dad
19:10 and he had a stroke and gone to rehab
19:15 and had come home
19:17 and but they found an area in his brain
19:20 that was inoperable
19:21 and they said that he would continue to have strokes
19:24 and he would--
19:26 if he had surgery, he would die.
19:28 He wouldn't make it.
19:29 He wouldn't make it through the surgery.
19:30 So that was-- that was really, really hard.
19:35 So I was on the road a lot then
19:37 because I didn't want my brother
19:38 to have to deal with that.
19:41 My youngest brother lives in Toronto.
19:43 And he is one who does not deal with that very well.
19:48 His thing is, I will give you what you need, you know,
19:54 and you know, he loves so we don't push him.
19:56 We don't push him.
19:58 We know that if could deal with it he would be there.
20:00 We just kept him up on information.
20:03 But I would go to Chicago and help my brother
20:06 with my dad a lot.
20:07 So when you were doing this,
20:09 I mean as you are at church most of the time.
20:12 That was always, I mean sometimes
20:13 I would drive down Saturday,
20:14 come back Monday, drive down
20:17 because or drive down Monday,
20:18 come back Wednesday
20:20 and schedule appointments around
20:22 you know, schedule my work appointments
20:24 around all of that
20:25 because sometimes I needed to be there
20:27 during the week to take care of business from my brother.
20:31 Sometimes I would take a train,
20:32 so that I wouldn't have to drive if I was tired
20:35 or so it was a lot, it was stressful.
20:40 And especially when he started having the strokes
20:42 after that first one.
20:44 You could see the decline.
20:46 And we knew it, we knew that the time was short
20:51 because I didn't want my dad to suffer
20:53 and I pray that my dad would not suffer
20:55 and he will not be hooked up
20:58 and he didn't want that either.
20:59 Okay.
21:01 So during this time it was really busy
21:04 and we had women's retreat in Wisconsin
21:07 and then after that I had a gown
21:11 that I had to finish up for this lady and so,
21:14 you know, I said, Lord, I hope it doesn't sound selfish
21:17 because I knew and I said, if you give me two more weeks
21:22 so because I can't leave these people hang here.
21:24 So you had a feeling,
21:26 a sense that it was coming soon.
21:28 I did.
21:30 And he gave me two more weeks till the day.
21:33 What? Yes.
21:36 So you have not 'cause you ask not.
21:38 Because I couldn't leave--
21:40 I couldn't leave these people hang here
21:41 and that's how I felt,
21:43 but he gave two more weeks till the day.
21:45 So you weren't with your father?
21:46 We were with my father. When he passed.
21:48 We all were in his room
21:49 when they took him off the ventilator.
21:52 And we got there on Friday and they told us
21:55 that there was no brain function.
21:57 But it was funny that when I got there...
22:03 And I said, "Dad, I'm here."
22:06 He started shaking.
22:07 And like he was trying to, trying to get up as toughen
22:10 and the nurses looked and, you know, I told him,
22:14 "Okay, calm down, calm down."
22:16 And I just started rubbing his hair
22:18 and he just calmed right down.
22:20 And the nurses were like, "There's no brain function."
22:24 And so, you know, he just-- seriously, he just relaxed.
22:32 And so we met with the doctors,
22:35 all of us met with the doctors on Saturday
22:39 and they took him off, they said,
22:40 they're going to take him off the life support on Sunday.
22:43 And they took him off life support at 2 o'clock
22:47 on that Sunday.
22:49 And we stayed near the whole time
22:52 and he left about 30 minutes later.
22:55 Hmm. Yeah.
22:58 And that was, that was hard, that was-- that was rough.
23:02 That was really rough. I'm telling you.
23:04 Did you get a opportunity to grieve, you know?
23:08 You know, I thank God for my sister-in-law Pam.
23:14 She really was there. She really was there.
23:18 My oldest brother, you know, he was, okay,
23:21 look out to this doctor, that doctor.
23:22 And you know, we have to tell him just relax,
23:25 everything is going to work out.
23:28 And thank God that they really stepped up
23:31 because I told them
23:32 that I couldn't do this by myself this time.
23:34 You can't leave everything on me.
23:36 It was too much. That was too much.
23:39 And what was the timeframe
23:40 between your mother and your father?
23:41 Almost three years. Three years apart.
23:43 Almost three years, so it's close.
23:45 And the church family was there for you?
23:46 Oh, my goodness, I was shocked,
23:48 about whole bus load came up to Chicago.
23:50 No. Really.
23:52 Yeah. Yeah, for the funeral.
23:54 And it was nice. It was nice.
23:58 Yeah, but that's,
23:59 that's your parents are the hardest,
24:02 you know, they say children, and I know children are,
24:05 I know that but...
24:07 Yeah.
24:09 I felt like my dad was my support system.
24:11 He was always there for me.
24:13 I could talk to him about anything, you know,
24:17 and he would listen whether he agree with it or not.
24:19 He may haven't even agree with everything
24:21 but he would listen.
24:23 And there were times when I-- I wasn't in the church,
24:27 I had left the church.
24:29 And my mother and I weren't talking
24:31 and he used to write me little letters,
24:36 you know, I love you, you're still my daughter.
24:39 You know, that I don't like your lifestyle
24:41 but you're still the child of God,
24:43 and I still love you.
24:45 And just send me little cards and stuff.
24:47 And I know she didn't know, you know,
24:49 because she would have been made
24:51 that he was communicating with me
24:52 but he was my rock.
24:55 He was very intelligent man.
24:57 And I know he wasn't perfect.
24:59 You know, I know that, but that was my dad.
25:03 That was my dad. He was...
25:09 And I remember, I remember
25:11 you being a little girl at Burns
25:13 when Pastor Tolson was installed
25:15 and I'll never forget that.
25:16 We had such a good team lecture.
25:19 We had Marshall T.
25:20 Kelly, we had, you know, Elder, Pastor Tolson.
25:25 We had the Nelsons, Sis Alice Drawbridge,
25:29 I mean growing up in a church where there was support
25:32 and love and people around you that you could, you know,
25:36 role models that you can count on.
25:39 So coming back to the church,
25:42 I know it made your father very happy.
25:43 He was. He was, he was ecstatic.
25:48 Look, in the next minute and 17 seconds,
25:53 what could you say to our listening audience
25:56 to help them deal with grief such as what you've dealt with?
26:01 Talk about it. Don't keep it inside.
26:06 Like I'll say it again I've cleared up again
26:08 with my blood pressure and diabetes,
26:12 and also develop sciatica
26:15 and for some reason a herniated disc.
26:17 One morning I just woke up and couldn't walk.
26:22 So talk to someone,
26:24 I'm in therapy right now dealing with the loss.
26:29 And so many people once they experience devastating loses,
26:34 they do, they make rash decisions and...
26:39 one thing my therapist told me was don't do anything
26:43 because I was ready to get divorced.
26:46 I was ready-- I was ready to go out back hard.
26:48 I was going to move. Everything.
26:52 She said, don't leave the house,
26:55 don't back hard, and forget about that,
26:57 forget about movement...
27:01 until till we get some issues together
27:04 but lot of people do things
27:05 when they're grieving because you're reaching,
27:10 you're looking for something, your, you know,
27:13 and you're looking for something to satisfy
27:16 or to make you feel better,
27:18 but you got to heal from the inside.
27:20 And our churches need to develop
27:22 some grief counseling,
27:25 maybe some support groups,
27:29 so that we know, 'cause I know
27:31 that I'm not the only one
27:32 that's going through this.
27:33 I don't feel alone in that area,
27:35 but we need to bring those people together,
27:38 so that we can, so that we can heal.
27:40 Because until we heal, a lot of times
27:43 when we don't go for ourselves
27:45 and we can't help other people like we want to or should.
27:49 Oh, wow, this has been amazing.
27:52 I just want to thank Joanne for coming, my dear friend.
27:55 But I just want to say that we can make it
27:59 and God can continue to help us making it work.
28:01 Amen. Yes, He can.
28:03 And you have Joanne.
28:04 I'm Dr. Kim Logan Nowlin. I'm Arthur Nowlin.
28:06 We want to thank Joanne Tolson
28:07 for being with us on Making It Work.
28:09 God bless. God bless.
