This is Josh before surgery in the giraffe portion of the hospital these are some of the awesome paintings - I will show you more tomorrow.
Okay what is up with Josh - he is ICU and having a reaction to the steriods and so not himself. It is taking both Bruce and I to settle him down - it is going to be a long night - if we could get him to sleep it would make it so better. Unfortunately Bruce will not be able to be here all night - so it will be a long night - but I know it will pass soon.
What about his surgery? It is a blessing. It did take about 5 hours - FRED is gone! It was a (spelling) terrytoma tumor and it is not maligant - it was a perfect surgery. It took longer than they anticipated - but they were able to get it without any damage to pineal gland or the artiery right there. It was truly a blessing and God was great!
It is now 11:34 and I am going to try to get some sleep. Thank you once again for your awesome prayers! You are all blessings to this family!

I am praying for Peace, comfort and God's gentle touch for quietness for all of you this night. I pray for a sense of calmness to overcome Josh, that only God can give him.
Praying for a speedy recovery.
