Saturday Afternoon Update

Well...........Mom is not getting the breathing tube out today.  BUT that is okay because we want it to be optimal conditions for it to be removed.  For all mine and Mom's nurse friends, here lactate levels are a little elevated and her pH level is 7.33, so he is acidotic but not really bad.  She did open her eyes and smiled at Dad, Sarah and myself.  She was trying to talk to Sarah and Dad saying she wanted a drink and something else we could not really understand.  Long day and long night today but hoping to get her breathing tube out in the morning sometime and good rest tonight.  Will update in the morning when we know anything new and/or if there are any changes.

Thank you for all the comments and prayers being relayed on here!

Love,

  3. Praying that she will be able to have the breathing tube removed and that they will be able to keep her comfortable!!! I'm also praying for strength and peace for all of you as well!!! I know it's difficult to see her that way and that sitting at a hospital all day is also exhausting!!! Give everybody my love!! I wish I was there with you.....Trey hasn't felt good and has stayed in bed all day today, so I guess I'm needed her for now.
    In His love and mine,

  4. This is so great! Thanks for keeping everyone informed on how things are going. I hope she is not too upset about having more surgery on Tuesday. The pictures you posted are amazing! Please take care of Brenda and also take care of yourselves. Happy Fathers Day, Blane! Our prayers are with you.
