Update on my Brother, my miracle!!

Hi Everybody! I have been up since 5 am for a wonderful reason. My Brother has finally been put into a regular room at the hospital in Las Vegas.
He was in ICU for 37 days and had no phone and all I could do was write him letters. I went to see him just before Christmas but he was on Life Support and he couldn't talk, and so I have been waiting and waiting just to hear his voice and he called this morning as soon as they got him in a room. It was about 2 am his time, and he is doing so much better. For those of you that don't know what happened he had what is called a Dissected Aorta. Most people have this in a really bad car accident or something really traumatic, and the survival rate is very low. He was just over weight and had high Blood pressure, and didn't know how high it was. He is only 40, and the doctor's said, that he was one of the youngest patients they had ever had at that hospital with that. It is where your aorta artery going into your heart tears. Kinda like hearing that someone's heart has busted. The doctors had pretty much said they didn't think he would make it, and he has done great so far. He had been on and off of life support for this past month because of fluid building up in his lungs and his kidney's are still in failure. But he can live on dialysis, and I am so thankful for that.They are getting him up now to try and walk and I believe he is going to get out of the hospital soon.
When this happened I asked for prayers for him and so did MollyBee, and I want you all to know how much I appreciate it. This all happened right before Christmas and MARCIA GEIGER had said in her post that this is the season for MIRACLES and that maybe God would grant my Brother one, and I BELIEVE HE DID. In the ICU unit where my brother was, only 10% of patients that had what he had lived. My brother was one of the youngest people to ever have that, he went into cardiac arrest a few times and also had a double by-pass, The doctor's and nurses started calling him the MIRACLE BABY! So Thanks to my Lord and Saviour that you let me and my family have my wonderful brother for what time we have left. And thanks to all of you for your prayers and a Big Thanks to Marcia for praying for OUR MIRACLE. ALL OF OUR PRAYERS WERE ANSWERED.

God Bless you ALL and Thanks so much!
