THANK YOU THANK YOU!

Okay I have to post these before I forget - I tried to do one long one, but my signal is too week.

What blessings we have been having from our friends and family.

The Youngs - wowowow you overwhelmed us with your outpour of love. The blankets are wonderful - Josh can't have his on for long because of the steriods making him to hot - but the snacks were the best. Thank you for the rainy day! Sarah is cooking up a storm with Aunt Kathy so she will have stuff to share.

Billy Ray and Peggy - Josh has not been up to opening his gift - but mom peeked and you are awesome. He will be opening it later. Sarah's is for when we get home, thank you for thinking of her.

Donna and Max we got it today - but he will open later. He is going to be pumped - he was trying to talk me into getting it for him. He just opened them and is jazzed. The book is perfect for him to work on reading again with his poor eyesight. Josh said you got him the best book.

Welty family - so how did you do that - you are amazing. He hasn't looked yet - but great job. You are taking such good care of our Angel.

Stephani - he loves the game and is waiting not very patiently for his eyes to clear so he can play. Then he wants to compete against you.

Grace Fellowship - you amaze us!

Our Children's Hospital Family

Dr. Ojemann - you are truly a blessing from God and your hands are a gift. Thank you so much for loving our Josh and being the "world known surgeon". Hugs to you!

Dr. Ellenbogen - Thank you for your blessing to this family. You are an awesome man and I am so glad you spilled the secret. You made this mom so happy!

Dr. Patrick - what can we say, we would love to have you as Josh's uncle. You are a favorite and Josh looks forward daily to your visits - it is his highlight. The whole family loves you and we thank you for answering our endless and very silly questions sometimes!

Liz - what a wonder woman you are. Taking our Josh into your heart and loving us all so much. You have answered endless questions and patiently listened and let me cry. We thank you! Josh wants to know how often he can call you!

Kathy - you were the best thing God did for me in ER. You were patient and let me rant and rave and share my frustrations. Josh thinks you are awesome.

Miss Fiona - you are our angel. God blessed us the day you walked into our room. Thank you so much for answering our endless questions and loving us as your family.

Stephanie - you made our first day so awesome. There was so much fear and anxiety, but you calmed us down and helped us adjust.

Erin - our night angel. After last night words can not express how much we love you and what a blessing you are to us! I have tears streaming down my face in the love you shared!

Christina - you are amazing and we love you over and over. You are as beautiful on the inside as you are the outside. Thank you for the loving care you give us all.

Other third floor nurses, blessing upon you, know that you are on our praise to the Lord. We have decided that Children's only hires the best!

Our ICU nurses -

Beth - there are not words to express how awesome you are and the amazing things you did as he recovered. When our patience wore thin - you were there and helping us laugh and see the joy in his recovery.

Gretchen - you humor and smiles lightened up a very tense time in our lives. I love laughing with you about my rest in MRI! You are great!

To our therapists - we thank you so much for taking Josh into your hearts and working with him! Thank you for helping us in our adventure!

Ron our Chaplin - Josh so appreciates you and your keeping him in your prayers, he is praying that you will blessed repeatedly for the giving you do to others.

Other staff at Children's - you have blessed us so much with you love and genuine care of children. What an amazing group of talented people.

Last but not least our precious Jen from Child Play Therapist - tears of thanks are running down our face. You knew what we needed before we knew we needed. The time you took with Josh and Sarah to help them understand, you are the best. God blessed us by bringing you into our lives. Sarah is still asking about you because she loves you! Thank you so much!

To our family and friends that don't know these precious angels - please join the Henry Family in praying for them and thanking the Lord and help us rain praises down upon them. We love them so much!

The Henrys

Bruce, Lori, Josh, and Sarah
