A Miracle

Wow.  You are all so amazing.  If we could hug and kiss everyone of you now we would.  Here it is: a huge cyber hug. Do you feel it? Thank you all so much for the love that you have been sending us all.  We feel it.  You're amazing...I'm at a loss for words....

But despite this loss: I'll forge on...

"The blog must go on!"

I was at my lowest point after writing that last post yesterday morning, so I decided to give 'praying for a miracle' a try.  I've never done it before and I knew it certainly couldn't hurt. 

Let me fill you in on what happened next:

1.  I showered in a CLEAN shower with hot water.
2.  Dr. Singh tracked Lincoln down while he was having an eeg and gave him quite a finger-waggin' pep talk, all the while letting him know how remarkable his speedy recovery is and how much she loves him
(I LOVE that woman).
3. A CURE to our doldrums came in the form of visitors.  First Aunt Mary and Uncle Chuck Cure and then Lincoln's lifelong ; ) friend Kyle, along with his twin sister, Kourtney, his mom Jody and his sister Eva.
4. SUSTENENCE arrived in the form of  a fresh, chocolate dipped edible fruit bouquet from Ms. Lucente, Mrs. Groudons and Ms. DaFoe ( Lincoln's teachers - I pray that I'm not leaving anyone out here - I've misplaced the card!).
5. Your COMMENTS started coming in and haven't stopped.

And how did all this affect our boy, you might ask? 

HE SMILED.  HE DRANK.  HE ATE.

He laughed with his aunt and uncle, and pushed and joked with his friend Kyle,
like typical eleven year old boys do.
And his parents reveled in his happiness - and relaxed.
The day was miraculous.

More on the events of this day to come -  photos, details, etc.  I'll clarify the use of the words: effect and affect.  I'll learn when to use each of the following: colon, semicolon and comma. Teachers and Mrs. Persico - feel free to shoot me some answers here.  Correcting the errors in this blog is always right up there on my "to do" list, but I procrastinate.  So in keeping with my M.O.  - I'll do it later.  I will say one thing, (or many) - I am relishing  the artist's license I am taking by starting some sentences with "but", "and" and "so". 

It is LIBERATING! 

And (there I go again!) thank you to the Baumman's who have offered to make the long trip to visit on Thursday.  Beginning today Lincoln will eat,sleep and breathe therapies, so visits during the day will be tough.
But, don't fret, Dear Reader....he may be up North sooner than you think....
