This is a miracle, an exuberant Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa told Deadline.
Senator Dodd spoke to my sister yesterday and asked, Do you believe in miracles?
She replied, At this point, Senator, Ive given up on miracles.

Unwavered, Dodd told her she would be hearing some good news very soon.
I could not believe it.
Tonight, my father will sleep in his own bed in D.C., my hometown.
It really is a miracle.
Todays development is the product of concerted American diplomacy, and we will continue to support the Nicaraguan people.
Among them are political and business leaders, journalists, civil society representatives, and students.
My mother, who is a very religious person, never doubted that I would see my dad again.
She had this belief and shes never wavered, even when things werent going the way we hoped.
This was an eleventh-hour miracle, one I didnt dare hope for.
Were all feeling relief.
I hope this is a good sign for the future because what happened today was unprecedented.
