Quick Night Update :l

Charlie has had a few storms from late afternoon through tonight. He started his most recent one at 9:30 and received Ativan around 10:15. It seemed to calm him a little but not completely. His heart rate is still at 177 and he’s sweating but he doesn’t seem to be breathing as hard as an hour ago. He is also working on becoming the next Houdini. His left leg has wiggled partly out of his cast several times today. I compare it to taking off a tight cowboy boot by just pointing your foot. He doesn’t bend any other leg joint except his ankle (straight leg and hip). Then add in a paralyzed calf muscle due to BoTox. I double dare you to try it.

Wow! That is quite incredible! I hope Char settled down. Just tell him there are other ways to express his magical side, and we'll get him signed up for a show as soon as he gets home. Love and Prayers.
PS Meg, I'll call you this morning...

Did you feel the earthquake? Rob, a RR man like yourself.. Milford was hit too. Maybe CCC was so frustrated with those lovely moonboots, he kicked that sucker right into action.
Keep going Char.... I still am blown away by his pictures, what a special little boy and handsome, too.

Rock on and keep those earthquakes coming (leaving them mostly in Nevada was a smart move, nothing out there you know.) By the way, Robert, who do they go to when that rumbling starts? The U baby, the U.
