He Talks

So, he talked today, after a fashion.

I had told him I was leaving at 2:00. When the time rolled around, he looked at me and was trying to say something. I tried to read his lips and had a lot of trouble getting it. We tried to get him to write on a paper but he couldn't hold his left hand steady enough. Finally, we figured out that he was telling me the I needed to go. It may not seem like a big deal to some, but it was huge to us.

We talked with a pulmonologist today. He said that sometime in the next few days Timmy might need a trachewhatever. It will actually make him more comfortable as there would be no tubes in his mouth.

The doctor said that the only thing that we need now is for Tim's body to heal itself. Pray that he will have the strength and the will to do this.
