Bells Palsy

Monday night Ashlee and Paul were over and he was talking about the left side of his face feeling numb. He was thinking it had something to do with his ear infection and antibiotics. Thankfully, Ashlee took him to the Emergency Room to be sure, which was an accomplishment all by itself... no one hates going to the doctors or feeling bad more than Paul. A couple hours later, we got the call "Bells Palsy". No pain, just a paralyzed feeling on 1/2 his face. He should be good as new in the coming days to months. We are loving his new smile :) Please keep him in your prayers.
Love, Brenda

I hope he's alright. Is it painful?

Hang in there Paul. You'll be feeling better soon. My favorite newscaster had Bells Palsy several years ago and looked as cute as you. He kept on doing the news through it all :) Have Ashlee make you some soup beans and cornbread so you get better faster!

My mom has had this a few times, and fortunately it DOES go away :) Even if it takes a few months, don't worry.
