Christina calls me this morning... Daisy has shed some of the water overnight (docs are happy... that means I am happy).... and they are going to try a change to the standard ventilator @ 10:30AM. The standard ventilator is not as heavy duty and has a natural breathing motion. Getting to move to this ventilator would be good news. It opens many other doors for us that we are anxious to open. We are not able to get an MRI to see what if any damage was done to my baby girls brain during the period of low oxygen. It will also allow them to relax the paralytic meds and allow her to move around some... this would be just awesome. Christina and I are both feeling anxious about the change... but we hope she tolerates it.
Waaaaahooo..... we have made the switch.... and Daisy seems be doing just fine on the standard ventilator. We have high hopes that this will continue. We have remained off the meds for blood pressure, etc. These are more baby steps in the right direction and we are so very thankful. Daisy continues to take in that magic which is momma's milk. I am so very proud of her right now.
Thank you so much for the constant updates! I am praying daily for your beautiful family and little Daisy. She is proving to be such a strong little girl! God bless.
