Up and at 'em...
This morning, Zack's surgeon said he might be able to go home this evening. The good news gave Zack an incentive to get up and walk around a bit this morning. He walked to the playroom down the hall on his own, where he got to check out the toys, computers and paints. After that, he requested a wheel chair ride that was "really fast." He got the wheel chair part, but not the "really fast" part. We wheeled him around the hospital, and showed him the gift shop, the cafeteria and the "ball machine" in the foyer. He also went outside briefly to get some sun and check out the water garden.
He is really excited about the prospect of going home. He has been talking about building Lego kits and playing video games all day. Hopefully we'll get the green light from his cardiologist later today!

It was so great to see Zack up and around this afternoon. I enjoyed my visit with him. He is such a sweetie; there is nothing that can hold him back from a speedy recovery. He has way too much energy and determination for that!! The Lord has blessed us all with our sweet Zack and it is obvious that the blessings just keep coming!! Love and special prayers to all of you.
