Taylor is more active, moving and reacting more than we’ve seen in 2 days. The decision to put her back on the ventilator has been a good one. She perked up and was so active, her doctor put her on medication to help her relax and rest. Currently, she is not needing any additional oxygen supplied; her lungs just need help taking in air. Tonight the hospital staff will be taking her off the forced-breathing aspect of the ventilator, and just leave her on a CPAP machine, which will provide a steady stream of air if she needs it.
We still have no idea when she may be able to come home. Taylor’s up-and-down roller coaster ride continues. Below are a few more pictures from tonight, the first we’ve been able to take of her with her eyes open.
