Quick Update: She is still on the vent but has been slowly weaned. The machine was forcing 18 breaths per minute. She has been moved from the Critical Care ICU to the Respiratory ICU. The machine is set down low and allowing her to breath 14 breaths per minute and coming to the rescue if she needs help. Still not awake but we are trying to force her to do just that. Still in the woods but seeing the light now!

Thanks For The Prayers>>Believe51
