Nathan
I am woken up at mid night by my very excited wife. I rub my eyes and try to concentrate to what she is saying.
“Your legs are healing! They are healing!” she exclaims while my hearts starts pounding. The doctors did say that I will improve and be able to walk once the swelling on my spine settles. His estimation was a year or so. I did not expect it to be so soon.
“Try to move,” my thrilled wife instructs. I close my eyes and try.
I must have used too much force because my right leg goes right up and hit Amari on the face.
“Auch!”
I flip my eyes open to see her rubbing her forehead.
“I am so sorry, Babe. I…”
“Oh my word, Nathan! Your legs are working!”
I am beating myself up for kicking her face, but Amari is so excited, she is jumping on the bed like a small child.
