Today is the first day in three weeks that we have seen her smile and heard her beautiful laugh! There is actually life in her eyes, though they still are not fixing on anything in particular… But she was bouncing in her wheel chair and twirling her head so she could feel her pigtails 
She is making the same noises that she made before the seizures, but she still is not talking, only making sounds. That will come in time
Tomorrow we have a big day planned full of EEG monitoring in the morning for a few hours to rule out any breakthrough seizures and then in the afternoon we will have an MRI to see how her brain has healed.
I am just so very superbly ecstatic with her progress, and so are the doctors and nurses Yesterday she could not suck from a straw and today she can suck if you stick a bit of liquid in her mouth and then quickly put the straw in. Yesterday she could not hold her own food and put it to her mouth, today when you place a french fry in her hand she automatically puts it in her mouth and takes bites. And obviously yesterday she wasn’t smiling or laughing… This afternoon she started moaning, so we put her in her wheelchair and fed her chocolate pudding. As soon as we rolled down the hallway she started bouncing and shaking her head.. then came the little giggles that we have sorely missed! We attribute the “great awakening” obviously to the Lord, but also to the chocolate pudding she had right before she came out of her shell!
Thank you for your continued prayers… they are obviously working
What a great thing to see. I’m so happy for all of you, and you all continue to be in my prayers.

In His time, in His time,

May each song I have to sing,
Be to You a lovely thing, in Your time.

May each song I have to sing,
Be to You a lovely thing, in Your time.

Still Praying for our little angel honey. Continue to be strong in your Faith. Remember….
One night I had a dream–
I dreamed I was walking along the beach with the Lord
and across the sky flashed scenes from my life.
For each scene I noticed two sets of footprints,
one belonged to me and the other to the Lord.
When the last scene of my life flashed before me,
I looked back at the footprints in the sand.
I noticed that many times along the path of my life,
there was only one set of footprints.
I also noticed that it happened at the very lowest
and saddest times in my life.
This really bothered me and I questioned the Lord about it.
“Lord, you said that once I decided to follow you,
you would walk with me all the way,
but I have noticed that during the most troublesome times in my life
there is only one set of footprints.
“I don’t understand why in times when I needed you most,
you should leave me.”
The Lord replied, “My precious, precious daughter, Heather
I love you and I would never, never leave you
during your times of trial and suffering.
“When you saw only one set of footprints,
it was then that I carried you.”
Thank you for some other excellent post. The place else may anybody get that type of information in such an ideal approach of writing? I’ve a presentation subsequent week, and I am on the look for such info.
Howdy, i read your blog from time to time and i own a similar one and i was just curious if you get a lot of spam feedback? If so how do you protect against it, any plugin or anything you can advise? I get so much lately it’s driving me insane so any help is very much appreciated.
