A little light came suddenly

 

After emergency surgery he wasn't predicted to survive, then on a ventilator he was told he may never be off, an amazing gift from his doctors and nurses, my dad is still here, somehow, for now, and off the ventilator, and his nurse held the phone beside him so we could hear that each other was there, making noise, not very intelligible through his oxygen mask, and all I could think to say was "Hi Hi. Hi. It's me. Hi". Maybe that's all he was saying too, but it means I love you, of course.
