I got the most beautiful message last night from Ethan.
My heart melted. Being thankful and grateful is one piece of the happy life puzzle. He has that piece in place.
I told him we were a team and that we were going to take our time healing. He wants to leave. He has said it several times. That is his drive.
He had a good night last night and I slept in this morning until 7:00. We will see what today holds.
All of those hugs are grateful hugs for everyone especially you. He has figured it out. I really like my new quote "You never know how strong you are until being strong is your only choice." Team Ethan is VERY STRONG. Keep going your Pit Crew is ready to help however we can. We love all of you.

ReplyDeleteHe is the sweetest kid I’ve ever met. In critical condition and thankful for others. His selflessness is what our world needs.
ReplyDeleteJust when you think Ethan couldn’t get any sweeter after all his hugging. He is such a kind hearted, thoughtful, selfless kid. As are you and Paul so it’s not surprising. Thankful and grateful during the most difficult time in his life...what inspiration and teacher to us all every day.
