talk to your loved one

my boyfriend had a seizure while driving and hit a tree december 15th. He is medicately paralyzed, is on a ventilator, and his lungs are giving up. I’m the type of person that will not give up on him. He’s fighting so much. It doesn’t seem like anything is goin to help him cause he’s been in the hospital for 2 wks and 3 days…but i pray and talk to him. It may seem like he can’t hear me, but i believe he can. Every time i talk to him his blood pressure lowers, oxygen goes up, and his pulse regulates. So I believe that the power of prayer and talking to him is gonna encourage him to fight harder and his ability to get stronger. So talk to your loved one. Let him/her know that there are people there for them and love and care. Knowing that he/she is not all alone and people are there for them helps a lot.
