Am I in the right room?
That's what I first thought before I threw my laptop bag down on the floor. Was that my husband all bright eyed looking right at me? IT SURE WAS!!!! He recognized me as soon as I walked in the room. I didn't know what to do first..lol He squirmed around a little bit like he wanted to move. He licked his lips and looked like he wanted to say something but couldn't. I stood there with him and just tried to talk about anything I could think of. I explained what happened to him a little bit trying to keep it vague for now. He looked around the room at all his machines. I told him that he has the best people taking care of him and even better people praying for him and he is getting soooooo much better. After I told him I loved him about 100 times he pucker up his lips all by himself.. U can bet I hopped right up there and planted a big ole smacker on him..lol ( no worries, we kept it G rated in the NICU)
After that I held up a picture of Maya I keep in his room right in front of him. A tear started to run from his eye and he held up his left arm to try and grab the frame. I have no doubt he can recognize who we are. I told him about how he's had so much family down here to see him. How his mom and sisters were here and all our other loved ones both near and far away have him in their continuous thoughts and prayers. I told him about all the amazing people at Progressive that have done soooooo much for us and how badly they what him back.
Then one of his doctors came in to examine him. When she asked him to smile he did. He squeezed her hand and she was pleased with his results so far. After that the good news just kept coming. His respiratory doctor came in and told me that they will be winging him off the vent. It may take a week or so but he's gonna go ahead and start it. What a blessing!!!
What an amazing day, I'm so thank full to the Lord for answering the gazillion prayers sent up so far, and to each of you out there for everything everyone has done. I can't ask for anything more right now.
Ok enough talking to you people...lol sorry no offense I'm going back to be with Kev some more.
With all my love and thankfulness,
Kimmie
