GREAT news

Eric and I went to lunch and when we came back they had a surprise for us..... she's completely off the ventilator!!! YEA!! We were super excited. They are still monitoring her to be sure that she's ready to do it all on her own but so far so good. She's breathing comfortably and all by herself! We didn't hold her yet because she was starting to fall asleep and we didn't want to give her too much excitement right now, but we should be able to when we go back later today. They did warn us that every once in awhile they have to put a breathing tube back in- but it looks good right now for her! Another step towards being better!
