A Message from Kim

I wanted to take a moment to thank everyone for the constant outpour of love and prayers we've recieved over the last week. I can't believe its already been a week right about this time when our lives would change as we know it...forever. Our family is so blessed to have so many wonderful people that care about and love us and each day I'm reminded of this so thank you all for that.

First and formost I have to thank my family. You are all my backbone right now and without each and every one of you I couldn't get thru this. Between all of you and our faith in God I know that we will make it over this hurdle and return our lives to one day something we might call "normal". Mom and Dad I can't thank you enough for all you are doing to help me with Maya. She is my shining star and one of the only reasons I can wake up each day. She gives me the strenght I need to be at that hospital everyday and make sure everything is being done so that her daddy will come home to us soon.

Aunt Debby this blog is amazing!! I love that everyone has a way to get updates and I can't wait until the day we can show this to Kevin and explain to him this journey we all road along on and how many people care for him. I love reading all the comments. I read them everyday. Its my therapy :) I've completly taken over the waiting room as my office inbetween wake up calls and this is what I do. Something else I have to Thank you for is how good you are with Kevin durring his wake up calls. Such a natural and your so encouraging with him, for that you will always have a special place in my heart.

To the Deramo Family.. Thank you to Mama D and Kevin sister Kristy for coming down to be with us as the days lead on. I'm so thankful you were able to be here to see Kevin open his eyes before returning home. Thank you to all the family back home in Massachusets and New Hampshire for your continous prayers.

To our Progressive Family... I have just been completly overwhelmed by the amount of love, support and prayer recieved from you guys. Its a blessing to know that Kevin interacts with sooooo many wonderful people on a daily basis and I can't express my gratitude for all the prayers, and donations we have recieved. I'm sure you all know as well as I do that Kevin is a fighter and will one day soon be back to work complaining about somebody having a crock pot where their not suppost too or having to take out all the bins..( yes, this is what he comes home and complains about...lol)

To my friends and family at Asset Acceptance... Thank you from the bottom of my heart for allowing me the time away to be by my husbands side durring this long road we have ahead of us. Thank you for the outporing of love, wishes and prayers received and I hope one day soon things get back to normal. Stay focused and collect as they say :) Missing you all.

And to everyone else... just Thank you!! I don't know what else to say. Everyone asks me what do I need. I need you all to Pray! Thats all I need. I need you to pray that the Lord will guide the Doctors and Nurses and Bayfront Medical Center to help heal Kevin so that one day he can return home and continue to be a wonderful father, husband, family member, or friend.

With so much Love and Hope,

Kim
