In the past 24 hours, dad was taken off the ventilator!
We have been here holding our breaths, hoping his lungs were strong enough to breathe on his own, so we hadn't posted yet. But praise God, dad has been breathing on his own, talking slowly and recovering from sedation so well that doctors and nurses are amazed!
He has asked for chinese food and his sun glasses!
He is only semi-aware but is improving by the hour. YEAH!
We are so excited about having him awake and back with us, but the process ahead of us is long.
We are still being careful with visitors, due to high infection risks, dad's disorientation and fragile health as he wakes and mom's need for continued rest. We look forward to the day we can see family and friends and share our joy and thank you for understanding the need to wait.
Please continue to pray with us during the next leg of this journey.
So what is a kiss worth?
When mom stood on one leg by the hospital bed of my dad and he turned his lips towards her for the first time in exactly two weeks, and they shared that first anticipated kiss, a kiss is worth everything!
God bless and thank you for your prayers and support
God does indeed do"exceedingly abundantly" more!
