Re: Prayers do Wonders

Hope all goes well for Ethan, glad to know you guys are able to get some of the best doctors to help out down in Ann Arbor.

That Cabela's in Dundee is a great place to spend some time, our two boys love hanging out there too:cool:

Looking forward to hearing good news and a prompt return to normalcy.:)

Re: Prayers do Wonders

wow--just found this thread. positive thoughts coming Ethan's way from the land of the roadrunner! hey, he comes from stock that's Tough Enough to Beat Old Tin, a little surgery won't even faze him.

Jas, remind him he's lucky he's not getting the full transom and floorboard replacement :eek: and that there are fish waiting for him out there that dwarf anything he saw in the Cabela's, but he needs to get through this so he can go catch em

and remind yourself that there are a lot of people out there who care about you and him even if'n we never done met you and we're just a bunch of bottom feeding tinheads...:)

Amazing news. I cannot fathom sitting and waiting for 8 hours while my son's brain was operated on. What a nightmare. So glad everyone came through it ok! The doctors and parents are indeed amazing.

Re: Prayers do Wonders

great to hear it! EZ is right, you and wife are 2 tough cookies. can't imagine having to wait while you have so little control over something that important.

sounds like you need to go buy that young fellow a boat when he gets out.....:D ;) and take the entire OR team some fish from next season's forays!

Thank You Lord.
Thank you gentlemen and ladies.
Jason, take care of the family and yourself. You can get rest and collapse when you get home. LOL
Then get to work on the boat. I get the feeling your going to enjoy it even more with your sons and wife.

Edit: Just went outside to say a quick "thank you " prayer. I realized something, we don't need no stinking OZ...Tinmen really do have hearts.;)

Awesome, awesome news Jason. Now you can relax a little and bask in the strength and unity your family has discovered. It was there all along of course...

Me and Mr. Glenfiddich are about to toast Ethan's future as a Mighty Islander Captain.

I'm glad that hurdle is cleared. Still praying for a full recovery. Go Ethan!;):cool:

Jas, looks like you had a bunch of people interceding for Ethan. The angry mob has a really big heart.









Thank you Jesus

Re: Prayers do Wonders

You guys are awesome!

E is resting at the moment and Jen is off to bed too.

The big stuff we are watching for is spinal/brain/cfm fluid leaking as well as fever so we aren't out of the woods just yet. Though, I feel about 1000X better than I did this morning!

Today was the longest day of my entire life and the most difficult stuff I have ever had to do, bar none.

Re: Prayers do Wonders

Fatherhood teaches you some amazing things about yourself. I'm pretty sure fatherhood saved me from myself.

Still praying....

Now go to bed Jason. Yo probably need sleep more than Ethan does at this point.
