Dear Family and Friends,
Miriam is stable. Her progress remains slow and there is very little to report. She had a low grade fever and it was attributed to a very mild upper respiratory tract infection.She is better now.
Yesterday, a new nurse at the Skilled Nursing Facility was getting her orientation. I participated by telling her about Miriam's nursing needs etc. Then I began to share with her who Miriam was before her horrific stroke. I do this mini orientation to every new nurse or CNA. I want them to see her as a person not just a patient. I started "bragging" about her and I know she does not like me to talk about her gifts and talents from the Lord. I explained to Miriam why I was bragging about her and she reacted with a muted smile. Every little smile from her is progress for me.
This evening, I was watching a short TV program and there was a young mother who delivered her baby. It brought back memories when mom Miriam gave birth to our two wonderful boys. I began to cry and became thankful to God for allowing me to marry her.
Thank you all for your continued prayers. Please do not give up on her. God will deliver His miracle.
In His Time,
Alex
