Hennie Hopkins I am elated!! Joe has made profound progress today. This morning the nurse asked Joe to raise a finger and he didn't respond, then she said," Joe, if you are in there , raise a finger" and it shot right up. When Traci & I saw him at the morning visit. He was doing well, following our commands and letting us know he was back! Dr. Videa...u came in and Joe responded to him as well. So they are talking again about a defibulator for Joe. When I went for the noon visit, they had removed him from the ventilator and just had him on oxygen. They released the restraints and stopped the sedative. He can talk now and the first thing he said was "I love you" which melted my heart. I am so grateful for the prayers, love, healing energy and positive thoughts that everyone has been sending to Joe & to me. Prayer works. I am filled with love & immeasurable gratitude for the blessings of all the people in our lives.

If Hennie would tell Joe that Curtis had a trailer and was heading down to pick up the Kubota ..... Joe would be out of bed and looking for his clothes!

Sonny Booker,... JOE UPDATE: Traci just called, she just left hospital, said "Mom, it really is a miracle!" Joe coherent, cognizant....she, Hennie and Joe were discussing what close call he had. She said Joe gets emotional talking about it,realizing the truth of it,etc. Very understandable!!! He'll prob go to room in day or two,wont have restrictions on cards,flowers,etc. Hennie will prob post later,just wanted to put this in/on here for family and friends who come here for updates:) Thanks again for all the prayers, please keep them going as I'm sure he has a "long road ahead of him"!

It worked Bruce, I read it just like I was ringside. I've been praying for Joe, just haven't posted it till now. He was quick to help back when I was trying to get a plotter working.
