Miracles From God

I have so much to be thankful for and only one person to thank: God Almighty. I'm so excited as I type this. My father-in-law, Domingo, is being moved from the critical care unit to a regular hospital room today!!! He continues to do well. He is working with a therapist at the hospital to gain more mobility in his right side. He is alert, is breathing on his own and can respond to us through nodding his head, and squeezing our hands. We are praying that he will be able to talk again soon as well. It is truly a miracle from God. Hopefully he will be transferred to a rehab center soon - I believe they are just waiting for him to have some more mobility before they can do so.

Our family is giving God all the praise. Domingo has a mighty army of people around the world fasting and praying for his complete healing. Thank you all for the many notes of encouragement and prayers that you have offered up not just for Domingo, but for me, Steve and the rest of our family.

UPDATE 1:29 pm - There was no room for Domingo on the regular hospital floor, so they are transferring him to the rehab center today!! This is a wonderful step toward his complete recovery, so we are thrilled that he's going to be able to go there.

P.S. Aiden LOVES the tote you got him for his birthday. It goes with him everywhere and he spends lots of time re-selecting and organizing its contents. The Color Wonder is a huge hit too; he hadn't had any of those yet. You nailed it, Aunt Beth! Many thanks on his behalf
