God is faithful. My friend Laura came to visit me tonight, so they moved my bed closer to the window. I had a full view of my roommate for the first time. I was at the window a few minutes early. I spoke a few words to her, and then she started tapping her cell phone on the table. I could see her, but she didn’t have a clear view of me. She started waving her white board side to side. I grabbed my phone and took a picture. She put it down in frustration. I zoomed in and read it, shocked I was able to capture it in the first place. I called the nurse right away. The nurse told me that the ventilator does all the work and it doesn’t move, etc. I said she’s really uncomfortable. My roommate kept making gestures and flailing her arms. The nurse suctioned the excess phlegm out of her throat. Success!! It was no coincidence Laura came when she came. It was no coincidence I was able to capture her sign as she flailed trying to breathe. And it was no coincidence I was her voice when she might have been dismissed. God is so faithful.
