    Thumbs up Son Update


    Hi everyone,
    Been bere at Brooks Army Med Hosp. and he is in lots of pain, but doing better as time goes on. He is alert when awake and knows what happened. It will be long and painful recovery, amd we hope for either full or near full recovery. This entire place (hosp & guest house is quite remarkable. The people here are something eles!

    I am staying longer this time than I expected and will go home for a short stay next weekend. The Purple Heart thing will be Friday so we didn't want to miss that.

    As for my Jigs I will tie what I can starting next week if anyone needs me about that. I will do what I can as time allows.

    Thank You all for the prayers and please keep them coming.

    I'll get back ome here next weekend.
