she talks!!!!

there's so much good news today

i don't even know where to begin

it began when she texted me at 5:51 am

-to tell me it was a good day and that she can now shower (whew)

and then went on to tell me all the food she's been eating

cheeseburgers and pizza and for breakfast yesterday she had

a turkey dinner!!


they are gonna do surgery wednesday on her vocal cords

-to try and repair the paralysis on the left side


then my cell phone rang...

IT WAS HER!

TALKING!!

-so sweet and soft, she covers the hole in her trach tube

and it works, it was hard for her to talk

i was so overcome with emotion, that i could hardly talk

we talked for a good while, she got tired

it was like i was dreaming, i couldn't believe my ears


what a miracle this day has been

it's been seven weeks since i've heard her voice

i'm so happy and we all are so blessed!
