Nick...still in ICU

We are asking for Nick for Christmas! Nick is starting to respond...just a little. For the last 2 days he has had his eyes open alot, although he is not looking at us. He blinks, he will slightly move a hand or a leg.....not much to brag about....but it is positive feedback. Before we left the room tonight, we think his eyes followed my voice but we can't be sure yet. All this seemed to start his head pressure raising--which then needs to be treated with medication to bring it back to normal. So it is 2 steps back & one step forward. We have felt the love of so many friends and neighbors. We have had the best home-made soups and breads that I think I have ever eaten. We have had warm loving notes and phone calls. We feel so loved and eventhough there isn't anything we need(other then a little miricle.....or a big miricle), it is such a comfort to know so many people we could call to help us out at a moments notice. So much love at this Christmas Season is overwhelming and wonderful. We are so blessed.......Julie
