Saturday 4/29
Michele is doing well after the traceotmy. She now has the ventilator hooked up to the trach tube. The plan is to wean her off the ventilator by turning it down to it's lowest then removing it for short periods at a time then building up those times till she is free of it. They can then start getting her off the IVs and getting her moving some. There is no timetable for any of this; it'll all move at Michele's pace on her schedule. The swelling in her tongue is going down but still painful. Her fevers continue to baffle there are no infections found.
