Sun 9 AM

Bev was off the respirator by the time we arrived to visit yesterday evening.  The respirator is no longer hooked up at all. Bev was still breathing on her own when we left for the hotel at 10:30. Her breathing is shallow and fairly rapid, there is a supply of oxygen coming to the opening of her trachea breathing tube to make sure she gets enough.  The volume of air going in and out is not enough to make the doctors happy but it is getting close.  Bev's pulse and blood pressure have remained stable.  Bev did open her eye a couple of times when the nurses were moving her around.

    Hi Dave, Kim and Sherri:
    Follow the blogs everyday and as always thanks for such informative news. We hope that the breathing becomes more comfortable each day and obviously getting home depends on that so baby steps and lots of patience. We send warm greetings to you all. Please know that we keep our fingers crossed and hope each day is a better one that the day before.
    Peggy, Peter and Adam
