Slowly but Surely

Not a whole lot to report. Which is good. They are bringing down the vent help and giving her "sprints" (periods of time off the vent") to measure how well she can handle it on her own. The results have been "marginal" so it may be another day. I really hope it's soon!
   Today she was super upset being on her tummy. I was hoping she would settle, but it took her awhile (and with the help of some drugs). She would lay on her tummy at home for a little bit and be ok, but I think between her chest (incision from surgery), chest tube, gtube, and the tube in her mouth (vent), it probably just is NOT comfortable. Really hoping we can get some better results getting that extra fluid out of her lungs!

  The other day we got her into a bouncy seat. It was a nice change of scenery and I think Lyla really liked it!
