Special visitors and update

This morning was such a great morning.

I woke up from the 7 HOURS of sleep and walked into Zachs room... I was greated with a bright eyed boy who proceeded to say "Hi Mom." After the tears stopped I gave him a eskimo kiss and he helped. This little boy is so amazing... I put my stuff down and walked over to his face and heard him wisper... "I wuv you mommy." These were the words i was waiting to hear.

I am so proud of my little man. He is overcoming odds that I never knew were there. Currently he is talking to grandma eating a slushy. Yes, they are giving him clear liquids...YAY!!! I that is HUGE!

We also had such a fun visit today! The Utah Jazz stopped by the hosital today to visit the kids. We got 2 of them visiting in the PICU. Tyrone Corbin (right) and #44 Kyrylo Fesenko came by and gave Zach a signed Basketball and a Jazz year book! I was so happy they brought the ball, because grandma used it to make him LAUGH!

They were so nice and made sure all of the kids were entertained and got a gift!

Zach does have his moments where he is in a lot of pain and cries. He is such a trooper. His best friend, aside from mom and grandma, is MORPHINE. Within seconds of getting his dose his is comfortable and sleeping.

I am so happy with the progress! I do know that Zachy is going to have some pretty bad days, but i say, BRING IT ON!

I am so happy
