An event changed the life of this couple for worse, but the wife did something sweet and things were all well

Hopelessness Creeps In

There was a documentary in which Danielle opened her heart out and told why taking care of Matt was difficult; it was because “He was just a body that didn’t react.” It was like tending a dead body which gave no response and even had the eyes shut. His body position had to be changed every couple of hours by Danielle, to avoid body sores. It had started becoming hard for Danielle too now.

And Then…

He opened his eyes. Yes, all of Danielle’s prayers were answered and her faith in the Almighty was strengthened tenfold. After 3 months from the accident, Matthew regained consciousness. It was surprising even for the doctors and was nothing short of a miracle for Matt and Danielle’s family. It was as if someone woke from the dead, but he was not the same Matthew.

Something Was Not Right

When Matt woke up, he followed everyone around with his eyes and even tried to move his lips. The brain injury had clearly affected Matt’s communication skills, he hadn’t yet gained full control of his vocals. But that was not the only problem; he did not seem to recognize anything or anyone around him. What was happening?

3 Years, All Lost

It slowly became noticeable that Matt was also suffering from amnesia. He had lost all the memories of the past 3 years. So he not only not remembered marrying Danielle but also didn’t remember meeting her either. He did not even know that his father died as it happened 2 years ago.

His First Words

Matt had opened his eyes, he was conscious again, that was enough to give Danielle a new wave of strength and hope. Progress was slow but it was visible. One day, Danielle, as usual, was helping Matt with physical therapy. She was trying to move his arm and Matt, in a whisper spoke his first words after his 2nd birth. He said, “I’m Trying!”

One Word At A Time

Everyone was ecstatic when the found out that Matt spoke his first words! Of course, it was a big deal because this was the man who was not even supposed to survive according to the doctors. The fact that his first words were “I am trying” proved that even he wanted to recover and had hope. This was a positive sign.
