Good evening!
Shew! The days are llloooonnnnggg!! Long, but good so far. Henry is tucked in and comfy in his new room. Sleeping soundly as of right now. It was still a day of lots of medicines, so he was fairly 'out of it' for most of the day, but he did get the strength to mutter the words 'ice' and 'ball' so far!
Several people have been asking 'what does he look like'? So I am going to try to post a few pics after this so you all can see. He really looks amazing...I never imagined after major brain surgery that a person could look so 'normal'! He has what amounts to a 'band-aid' going across the top of his head, and aside from all of the wires he's connected to, that's really all it is!
One more bit of good news today ~ just talked to Sam at home and he lost his second tooth tonight!! He is very proud and getting ready to head to bed so the tooth fairy can get busy!! I'm sad to miss that exciting time for him, but he's a trooper and is going to email us a picture!
We're going to try to get some sleep....thinking of everyone and still thanking you all for continued good thoughts and prayers. Much love, Shelley and Paul
Happy days....

We are still praying for normal brain activity here. Missed talking to you yesterday, tried my hand at just 'blogging it'; will call today. Yard Sale this am here on Hofstra Court. Talked to Neen, she is totally keeping track of your updates, even gets the music! Keep them coming, sis. I love you and yes, I know I am a freak because it's 530AM on a Saturday and I am on the computer.
We are booked for UF/UA!
A few oberservations from my short time in Memphis this week.
You all should have seen the strength that the Prince, Shelley and Paul showed this week. I am truly in awe of all three...
You should also know that Holly Ownby defines what friendship means. Her devotion to Henry and to Shelley is something we should all aspire to have. I now know where her three children Meg, Zach and Molly get their extraordinary compassion.
The care that Henry is receiving is nothing short of the best on the planet. For all that are waiting on miracles from above, take a drive to Memphis and see in person what the hand of God can accomplish.
Godspeed Little Prince. You continue to be in our prayers and thoughts.
