I'm completely fine with that decision, and can see that it was necessary after witnessing how she just immediately perked up, opened her eyes, and started looking around the second she got that vent hooked back up (after a morning of working really hard to breathe) . It was amazing! And showed that she's just not ready yet for all of that breathing freedom. She handled it so well for so long though, that I know it's just a matter of when, and not if... So if I say I trust God's timing...then I've got to trust God's timing! We'll get back there again!
Little miss was being mysterious today and periodically having a hard time breathing again. She kept the nurses on their toes. I can't wait for her to get weaned off of all the drugs that were for her trach placement... Since she's weaning, it seems like withdrawals is always a possible reason for the things that hurt, and that makes problem solving difficult!
Overall, she had a pretty good day. Another day with Annelise to be thankful for!
Do I dare even mention that her chest tube output has decreased? I'm not convinced it's time to party about that yet, because she has held onto the fluid and then dumped all at once more than once. I cannot help but get my hopes up though!
Onward to what's next tomorrow!
