The smile we've been waiting for

For the last few days there was what seems to be a very gradual improvement in Liam's condition.  Still, she didn't talk (still doesn't), didn't smile, didn't interact.  Had occasional pain, nausea (especially after dialysis - which is likely to continue), etc.

Well, today she broke free with plenty of smiles.  When we went outside she reached for the driving stick of her wheelchair and attempted to stir.  Below she smiles not to the camera but to a few words I say in Hebrew, which for some unknown reason crack her up.


 

 (They always tell you to read the fine print:  With all the delight to see her smile and a hope for even a better tomorrow, we've been there before and saw how things flip exactly the other way around.  Don't want to sound like a party pooper, just a realist with some experience.)
