Such Joy…..Soooo Needed!

Linny Saunders44 Comments
Yes, it’s true, when Bob and Vicki entered Karl’s room
 at 9:00am this morning 
{everyone is kicked out from 6-9 both am and pm}….
they found Karl laying with both his eyes partially open!!!
You can imagine their joy!!
Not wide-eyed, but open enough that yes, indeed, 

they were open!
Bob and Vicki almost fell over…
actually Bob was overcome with emotion and 
bent down weeping and praising the Lord.
Over the course of the next while,  
the doctors saw as Karl blinked in response to his mom
 and then wiggled his toes for the nurse and doctors – 
who were all elated!!
Autumn ran to his room and running in said, 
“Hi baby, it’s so good to see your eyes open.”
Karl responded by blinking those beautiful brown eyes three times. 
Miracles!!
True miracles!
Can I just say that yesterday was a tough day for all of us?
Super tough.  
And today, there was breakthrough.
Yippee Jesus!!  Yippee Jesus!! Yippee Jesus!!

“To God be the Glory, 
Great Things He has Done!”
They had to sedate Karl right after this awake time because his blood pressure was rising.  

Please continue to pray with us for Karl’s 
complete healing and the upcoming surgeries {more later}.

  44. Our son actually did pull out his breathing tube ~~ guess he was tired of it :-), and Dr's left it out as he was breathing on his own fine. And thus the healing began! Continuing to pray for Karl, knowing he is in God's safe and powerful and tender hands of love and healing. We won't stop standing with you all! Keith and Diane Rima
