Yeah so what I do when I’m not here.
My son, now 30 yr, was diagnosed schizophrenic at 17. My wife got him signed up with Friends of Music, an organization close hospital connected, and saved his life, no less.
The organization has an entire auditorium/stage, all music equipment and sound system, 6 professional musician music directors, and is open to those with mental illness and families, to join in the fun and adventure of full music experience as a means of healing and recovery.
My son and wife and daughter are members of the rock band, the jazz improve group, the ukulele ensemble, beginner band, skills band, and fundamentals group. It’s a blast. Very helpful to us as a family.
