Yes, another try to perhaps remove ventilator, or at least see if Becky could sustain breath without it working for her.. I am putting it in extreme layman's terms, but that's just my grasp of it at this time..Good news is, got closer to this goal, but just couldn't make the call to go without vent, heart rate went where didn't want to go... Other good news is, Becky is somewhat breathing on her own, but vent has to assist, again, since she is sedated. But sedation has been decreased even more since yesterday. So we press on...
Thank you again for your many prayers..
Celebrate life..
Bill, Becky and Abbey
