Thursday has been a better day than Wednesday for sure. Overnight Chloe had a pretty good time of it. She was able to get some well needed sleep. Dana got a few hours and Sandy a couple in the chair. Not bad considering the way the day started out yesterday.
\nToday she has been very aware of everything and, although she can\u2019t speak due to the tube, she makes her wants and needs known through sine language. Some of us are better at reading her than others but we can all get a smile out of her easily enough.
\nAt 1:45 pm we brought her down to the basement for her 24 hour MRI scan. She is still sedated at this point but everything went well with the procedure. When she wakes up we will start weaning her off the ventilator. This should go quickly as she is breathing well now with just a minor assist.
\nThe nurse seems to think we will be out of PICU tomorrow or the next day. We\u2019ll see what Dr. Dorsen says, as he\u2019s the boss. He should be up to see us in a little while.
\nBlessings,
\nRon<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
