They have taken Eden off her high frequency ventilator and put on a conventional ventilator. A high frequency ventilator makes her breath really fast and shallow where as a conventional ventilator actually mimics normal breathing. They had to change ventilators because they are planning on taking her down to MRI tomorrow and the high frequency moves her little body so much they can't use it during the MRI. They also reduced her pain drip again down to 1mg per kilo and she seems to be tolerating it pretty well they are having to bolus her with a different pain medication if they think she is in pain.
Went down to see her tonight, see looks really good! She was awake and looking at us, and moving her hands and legs around( this is really good it will help her get rid of some of her swelling). She is doing good on the new ventilator, and her pain medication change. Every thing else is still the same, her drains are still getting out fluid(it is decreasing though) and they are still suctioning out her tummy.
Her little feet are always so cold so i got to put some little sockies on, and the nurse got her a bow for her hair.
she looks so cute, she is so glad to have a bow in and warm toastie feet. She is a cutie.

Wow! I just read through all of that from start to current and I have to say that it was quite overwhelming. I have been hearing bits and pieces of what's been happening but definitely not all this. I am so impressed with how you guys are handling yourselves through this whole ordeal and admire you so much for it. I am so glad she is doing well right now. Please know that you continue to be in our thoughts and prayers daily. She is beautiful! Keep staying strong.
