A quick update

I have a minute to write, so I thought I would post a quick update. The doctor saw Jim this morning. He sees his semi-coma to coma state as stable from last night. His pupils seem to respond appropriately to light. I choose to continue to believe that he can hear things, so I talk about everything with him. His parents are arriving this afternoon and the doctor said he feels Jim is staying strong to see them. The nurses helped me get him washed and his linens changed so he's fresh and handsome for his mom. I have the TV on for him... there is a station that is replaying the MN Wild hockey game from last night (he's going to be disappointed when he hears they lost!). The nurses brought me a lunch tray...I ate and it tasted really good. I feel better. I told Jim's nurse that I go from being so sad that I don't feel like I can take another breath to feeling strong and positive. I feel strong right now...probably because we got Jim cleaned up and got him fresh linens....I know he's comfortable.
Love,
Elizabeth
