The power of the purr

I can't honestly say I could physically feel Turtle Dove on my chest, licking my chin. I could sense the essence of her spirit close to me. I could hear her purr and she was calling my name to come home.
When I woke up I couldn't remember what day it was or where I was at, but I certainly remembered Turtle's visit.
So here I am.
I want to thank each and everyone of you for the wonderful words of prayers, love and support you sent my way. I'm overwhelmed and very very touched!! to all of you!
You've not only been here during the joyful times, but you've been here during the long dark days too. And that's made all the difference in my life!!
It's not a forum to me it's a family.
I come from a place where family is either dead or estranged;and friends only tolerate my love for cats.
You've all saved my sanity in the past and now you've played a part in saving my life. How can I thank you for that??????????
The doctors don't have a clue what made me slip into a coma. They're also confused about what brought me out of it. For the time being I think I'll keep that miracle to myself.
I got a report from my friend that as she was leaving the apartment to come see me today she noticed Turtle trying to get into the carrier!!
Oh Turtle Dove hang on Sweetie!! I'm coming home on Wednesday!!!

Oh Cheryl, how we waited for this day sweetie
Welcome back!!!!! It is so amazing to hear from you!!!! I can't quite put it into words how good it feels!!!!
Yep, there is a team here who is cheering hard for you, alright! and that little kitty of yours What a sweet little lady she is We can't thank miss Turtle enough for bringing her sweet momma back!!!

Hugs, and more hugs!!!
And can't wait for you and Turtle to be finally together on Wednesday!!!

Cheryl it is so great to see you posting again, it is really wonderful. I am so glad that you're doing well and you will be going home soon. Yes we were all worried about you and we were checking every day to see if there was any news. I hope the doctors find out what caused your coma and that it never happens to you go. Turtle is patiently waiting for you to go home, I'm so happy for you.

Miracles do happen

Cheryl, your Turtle Dove is SUCH a gift and a miracle, and we are just all SO SO SO SO SO glad you're HERE - and even better news YOU'RE GOING HOME SOON!!!!!!

Not a single person in this family doubts for a second the power of the purr.

My name probably isn't familiar to you (Kooky-Cats - Lana), since I had not posted in a while until fairly recently. But I've been following your story and have been so touched by it. It's truly a miracle and Turtle was so instrumental in your recovery. I cry every time I read about it -- and I just called a good neighbor of mine (who is our kitty-sitter) to tell her your story. As I was relaying the story to her I just couldn't keep from getting choked up. My heartfelt wishes for your complete recovery, coming home to your little sweetheart, and look forward to seeing your posts. Give Turtle a big kiss from me and my 3 kitties - Tony, Tippytoes and Angel.

I am over the moon to see you posting hun!!!! Turtle is one special little girl she will be thrilled to have you home on wednesday

So pleased you are doing so well!!

Just confirms what I so deeply believe about the power of love - human or feline

Chin skritch from me to your sweet Turtle Dove when you get home, and many for you to continue doing better and better. SO glad to see you here again.

everyone here has said the words for me. Welcome back and speedy recovery, Turtle wants you home quickly!

So happy to see you posting and to hear you'll be home soon.

I spoke to my mother about your ordeal and she says she's seen it before (retired nurse), the body sometimes just turns itself off in order to make repairs.
That's how she put it anyway.
She says frequently being reminded of your obligations to the living (your kitty) is what it takes to turn the switch back on

So very glad Turtle knew what she needed to do.

This is the most WONDERFUL news, Cheryl!!!!!

I told DH about the awakening story--we both loved it.

welcome back what a wonderful bond you and Turtle have. The power of love is amazing. More good health vibes :vibes so you can get home to Turtle.

I'm so happy to see you back! I'm praying for a quick recovery.

Welcome back Hoping for a speedy recovery and loved the story of your awakening!

I am so happy to read you posting again. Turtle is such a special kitty, we knew that long before any of this happened with your health, but she's just continuing to be her amazing self and to prove the Power of the Purr.

I do wish you tons of healthy vibes, and I bet Wednesday can't come soon enough for you!

There really is nothing like the love of a kitty, is there.
Welcome back!

I am SO glad to see you posting and to hear you are going home on Wednesday!!! That Turtle is a miracle worker but I'm not surprised! More for a fast and easy recovery. I think Turtle deserves some extra special treats.

Cheryl!! I can't tell you how happy it makes me to hear from you!! We've been praying for you at my house!

I really appreciate your friend keeping us updated....I'd hate to not have known you were going through all that. You and sweet Turtle!

I am so glad that you are on the mend and going home to your Turtle Dove.
