I still miss Minnie so much and still cry over her, but little Cookie is really helping to heal my wounded heart. But even moreso than with my incredible pup, I'm just overjoyed to be witnessing what is starting to look like the miracle of all miracles with my aunt. Sunday night she went to the ER with trouble breathing and had extensive pulmonary embolisms and 3 heart attacks. When none of the drugs were working they went to a last ditch drug that is extremely dangerous, and we were told her odds of surviving the night were maybe 1 in 100,000. Well it's Thursday now and she opens her eyes, can nod or shake her head when we ask her questions, and she is able to write on a whiteboard now to talk to us. All I know, is my aunt has some friends in very high places and we're just so overjoyed with how well she is doing. No heart attacks since, but she's still feeling pretty rough from the broken ribs when she got CPR. Lots of family and friends have been visiting with her, holding her hand, talking to her, and so on. I still couldn't believe the first time I saw her eyes open Monday afternoon, and immediately after, her grandson and I were just sprinting through the hospital to find her daughter to share the incredible news and get her butt up there! (she was downstairs getting some food at the time)
