More Excitement

I couldn't wait until this evenings news to write in the blog. It was just too good. Matt moved the toes on his right foot! Mom of course was visiting other people and he was trying to get her attention by clicking. He then told her to watch his right foot. She said she could hardly believe it. Just like dad did, she called the nurse over to confirm what she had seen. What great news! Way to go Matt! Psalms 145:3 "Great is the Lord and most worthy of praise; his greatness no one can fathom". Had also had 2 breathing trials so far, 1:10 and 1:10. That is as long as they will let him go. He did de-sat after laying on his right side, or his bad side, but again after some physio and suctioning, the o2 went back up. Tonight is his last dose of antibiotics and so far he is clear from any more infections. He's had a bit of diarrhea, hopefully it isn't a virus, just too many meds to keep everything soft, and the nutritionist said they may change his food as well. But we will see tomorrow. Also a fellow from City Hospital rehab came to see Matt, and currently there a re no beds, but maybe we will see in a few weeks. Right now ICU is still the best place for his lungs, but the rest is obviously wanting to get on with rehab! Sorry Matt, cannot divide you up and send pieces to where they must go. Your too good-looking just in one piece!

Hey Matt, I have something cool to tell you. I had two dreams about you!
The first dream was that you were sitting up in your bed in the hospital and you had an MP3 player and you were shaking your head and just rocking out!
The second dream was that I was climbing a tree and the tree was like a little club house and the tree just happened to grow like that. I was climbing with my friends and then they left and I saw you climb up the other side of the tree and then you came up to see me and we talked. After that you started to climb down the tree house and then I woke up! It was a really awesome dream! You are doing a very good job! I am so proud of you! I love you lots! Remember God is ALWAYS with you!
Love your cousin, Macy

Thank you God, for answering another prayer. Aunty Karen phoned and she was so excited. I would loved to have seen the look on your mother's face. It would have been priceless. We are so very, very happy to hear the good news. So many wonderful miracles all the time. You keep fighting and God bless you all.

You have been making such good progress, this last while, it must feel good to see things improving, you just keep up telling your body what to do and God will do the rest. Keep the faith, He will never leave you.
