Exciting Update

Dear Family and Friends,

 

I was on Skype with Doris, mom and Matt this evening. They were asking if Miriam was asleep. I told them that Miriam is simply resting and not really asleep. Yes, her eyes are closed but she is actually listening. She is restful and peaceful because she hears the voices of her dearly beloved family. When I told them that she is simply pretending to sleep, that she is actually listening to our conversation, Mom Miriam began to smile and tried to "laugh".  Everyone witnessed this amazing response from her. She is definitely improving.  So the next time you get to visit her or Skype with her, please remember that mom Miriam is listening and understanding your conversation. Praise the Lord.

 

In His Time,

 

Dad Alex

Dear Family and Friends,

Happy Easter to everyone from  Miriam. She is a God fearing, God loving, Christ centered mom, daughter, sister,wife and friend. Her life switch has been turned off temporarily. We are waiting for God to turn it back on. Keep praying and hoping. She has the breath of life from the Holy Spirit. She knows, she hears and she understands. She is merely trapped in her body. 

Two weeks ago, Howie received a congratulatory phone call from our US Congressman for getting admitted to the US Naval Academy. When I shared this wonderful news with her, Miriam tried to cry with partially muted joy in her face. She had a prolonged response. She understood what this meant. The following day, a friend of our family congratulated Miriam and she gave  a smile.  Miriam and our family are so proud of Howie. He has been a big help during our time of crisis.

God is the center of our family. As Howie puts it, God is our GPS. God knows everything. We continue to trust in His infinite wisdom.

 Miriam remains stable and more wakeful. We are still waiting for functional recovery. I know she wants to thank everyone for praying for her and I am sure that if she were able , she would ask everyone to continue to pray for her recovery. She remains faithful to her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

In His Time,

Alex
