Hope springs eternal!!!!

For in hope we were saved. Now hope that is seen is not hope. For who hopes for what is seen? But if we hope for what we do not see, we wait for it with patience.
Romans 8 v24,25

Moriah had a very good day today. When I walked into her room this afternoon she had her eyes open and seemed to react to me when I spoke to her. Saw her eyes open and reactions that I haven't seen before. She seemed upset at one point and shed a few tears. Her therapy went well and once again we hope that this is another step towards a brighter future, for as all of you should know by now, There's a brighter day around the corner!!!! I also know that we have to be patient and keep and even keel but it's hard not to be optimistic after what I saw today. Our hope is that our prayers are being answered. Please continue your phone calls, emails, and prayers as they mean a great deal to me. Also you can put comments on this site.

Silos, hope your feeling better.

Hawk fans--we should not be allowed to play at Northwestern anymore.

I've been trying to fit in a few walks so if you see some crazy bald guy walking along Oakdale Avenue with a walkman praying and singing and crying, yep it's me.

How fast you gonna run? Away from this one. Anywhere but here.
You wanna disappear, To the next daylight, where everythings right.
It's always somewhere else, Once shame and guilt, Have made their mark-You can't run away from the nagging dark, You carry it everywhere in your heart, It finishes everything that you start, You can't run away fromt he nagging dark-How much it gonna cost?
When everythings lost, What a price you'd pay, Just to feel some way.

Cause your heart is stone, Ground to the bone, all your flesh and blood, Just ashes and mud,
Feels like your soul's been blown apart.
How far can you see?
Will you ever be free?
Through the blackest night,
You still hold on tight--HOPE IS YOUR FINEST WORK, IT'S YOUR FINEST WORK,
HOPE IS YOUR FINEST WORK OF ART!!!!!

John Hiatt and the Goners "The Nagging Dark" Album "Behind This Gruff Exterior"

I actually thought of this song within a couple of the days of the accident and thought I would share it with you now.

May God's grace fall upon you

Dale, this is wonderful and Emily and I are so excited to hear this news!!! It is very hard not to be optomistic when wonderful things like this happen. We pray for Moriah every single day. We love her and can't wait until things keep progressing in a good way. God is there for us Dale.
