Shelley replies:
You haven't missed those details, as JKR just hasn't provided them in the 
books. It's the one area that I think has caused the most speculation for 
another person being present (presumably, another DE) at the time of Lilly 
and James's murders, for the wand had to have moved from where he used it 
(at Godric's Hollow) to get to where LV was hiding. We all are assuming that 
he didn't have any power or physical strength left to carry it himself, but 
maybe Rowling forgot to say that he was at least strong enough to drag his 
sorry butt and his wand out of there.
