We are so excited to report that Vivienne is no longer on any respiratory support!!! The cannulas are gone and she is happily breathing room air. They disconnected her around noon and she's been doing great. They will put her back on if she starts to struggle, but it's very unlikely at this point. Dave and I are beyond thrilled. In other news, Viv has been totally weaned off of her Versed. Now we just have to get rid of that pesky morphine which should take about a week if she tolerates the weans well.
The doctors don't like to give a timeline when it comes to discharge, but it's safe to say we are getting close. The drugs are the main thing standing in our way. Feeding is also a concern, though they will send her home with a tube if necessary.
We're in the homestretch!!
