David is awake, reminding everyone that today is his birthday!!

Speech? Check.

He has also reached out and grabbed Barbara's hand with his RIGHT HAND!

Right side? Check.
Miracle? Check.

Amazing.

His family is with him now...celebrating the life God has given.

I know you guys want more details and more words. But I am so speechless.

I will praise the Lord, Deep down inside me I will praise Him. I will praise him because his name is holy. I will praise the Lord! I won't forget anything He does for me. He forgives all my sins. He heals all my sicknesses. Psalm 103

Praise God, from Whom all blessings flow;
Praise Him, all creatures here below;
Praise Him above, ye heav’nly host;
Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.

Thank you Lord for answering abundantly more than we can ask or think!

Continuing to pray!

David Foz here and when i was in the hospital's waiting room i opened my Bible up and looked down at what i had opened it up to and it was Psalm 86

Psalm 86:6-10
6 Give ear, O Lord, to my prayer; And give heed to the voice of my supplications!
7 In the day of my trouble I shall call upon You, For You will answer me.
8 There is no one like you among the gods, O Lord, Nor are there any works like yours.
9 All nations whom You have made shall come and worship before You, O Lord, And they shall glorify your name.
10 For You are great and do wondrous deeds; You alone are God!

I'm praising the Lord in Knoxville, Tennessee, for the ways God is working in David's life. And in the lives of his family and friends. I'm so glad that I found this blog (via Kirsten Oliphant, my BF) and will continue to lift you up!
