Hi everyone! I didn't get to see Krysten today between the bad storms and work.
They took the ventilator out this afternoon! While this is very exciting, Patrick is still a bit concerned because they let her start drinking right away. He is worried about the fluids not going to the right place and getting into her lungs instead, which would lead to pneumonia. The nurse did say that she is coughing after she drinks and not during so that is good. We are kind of surprised they didn't do a swallow test first. Just continue to pray that while she is drinking, it goes to the right place!
Her breathing was pretty good after she got it out.. so that is definitely a good thing.
Otherwise that was the biggest news of the day. I'm going up again tomorrow to see her.
Thanks for the continued prayers and support!
Laura
