Our Decision Right Now

Since my last post some things have changed. She is now a lot more responsive and alert. She is trying to read books and she is really staring at her visitors intently. You know that she wants to say something badly. The docotrs told us we could have a trach put in to help her longer but if her physical strength was not much better than she would not be doing too much more than now. We feel that as long as she is responsive and wanting to communicate with us and knows who we are it would be wrong to not put one in. We really feel like she still wants to be with us and can maybe bring more joy to others still.

I feel that maybe she can be a testimony to others about God and how powerful prayer really is. Although we know she is still terminal she has been really bad off several times in the past 9 weeks and thanks to prayer she has been bouncing back like she has more to do. Even thought the doctors said she would not probably not get any strength back yesterday she nodded her head several times when asked question and waved bye some. She purposefully raised her arm and hand a few times. She squeezed hands a little harder and even doctor said she seemed to be a little stronger. Even if it just means a few more months with her and gives us more time to prepare we are thankful for that and also thankful she still has oppotrunity to change some lives if possible.
