Thanks Don. Isn't this exciting? Every few days he feels another sensation. For those who don't know - or don't remember - Josh Howard is one of the neatest 22 yr. old "kids" you'll ever know, who was severely injured at the Short Track Nationals. As I am beginning to learn he must have been completely paralyzed from the neck down - but he is gaining feeling in his arms - a small bit of use of his hands, then felt his big brother grab his toe and now is getting some sensation from his thigh muscles. This is a great and devoted racing family. Dad, brothers, cousins - they all race. Josh has a wife and son and a little girl on the way. I'm just hoping and praying that he is able to regain all of his powers. He deserves it. Oh yes - he was also a volunteer fireman (or on the payroll - I'm not sure). Like I said - a really good "kid".
