Shelly Visits Bruce

Shelly and Bruce were able to be together today for the first time since she was wheeled into his room on her way out of Bronson Hospital shortly after the accident. The visit was nice for both of them. Bruce slept a lot, but at one point he was squeezing her hand and responding to her questions. Most importantly, they were able to be together. And when you are in love, that can be better than conversation. Celebrate. First thank God they were able to have this moment. Then, if you can, make some time to go be with someone you love. Sometimes we need a scene like this to remind ourselves of what really counts in life.

Hi Aunt Shell!
I just talked to my dad and got the scoop on how Bruce responded to you and your voice yesterday. I am so happy you had that opprotunity to be with him. Sunny AZ sends warm thoughts your way as you brace for this fridged weather I am hearing about.
I'll watch a sunrise for you tomorrow.

Hi Shelly, So good to see you and Bruce together. You've both come a long way and have a much longer way to go but hang in there, you'll both make it. Our prayers are with you and we think of you every day. Love, Allen & Elaine
