Ethan's Updates: Update # 75

Ethan was excited this morning, he knew he was going to meet
the couple who have provided him with mail and packages to
open over the past six months. He calls them his "Tennessee
friends".

The morning was a bit awkward with breakfast, getting dressed,
and a new med schedule. We did not get around as fast as we had
wanted, but we did get it done .

Getting to the truck stop about 11:00 am, he finally got to meet
these wonderful friends. They had him feeling great in seconds
and took him out to the truck. After looking the truck over,
Dave arranged for him to get a ride - something that was great
for him. He sat with Wendy (a first - not a family member - he
said he liked her !) and watched out the window as they drove
around. As Dave backed into a parking spot, Ethan got involved
and started giving Dave directions - real cute.

Got a few photos, said our byes, and headed home. Ethan was a bit
ticked, he wanted Dave to take all of us to Ga. to eat. When asked why
he said that is where they are going and Wendy asked me to go. I
tried to explain the distance, space, and time involved. He came
around to my way of thinking with one condition. If Dave and Wendy
come back he can go with them and he will nice like their cat.

Want to REALLY THANK Dave and Wendy for opening up
their day and truck to Ethan and family. They lost sleep, time,
who knows what else - and all for Ethan. There really are
some wonderful people in this world and we know two of them.
