she's trying

the 'trials' continued today

because she's stable and things look good

-that's where they take her off the breathing machine

and let her and her new lungs breath by themselves

i know that this is not easy for her

it takes a lot out of her, almost like learning to breath

she did it today for over six hours

good girl


the nurse said they've given her a lil' something

to help her sleep tonight (no game, travel day)

so she should be raring to go tomorrow

more heavy breathing


this morning the nurse said she's doing good

no fever, up in her chair

watching a movie with her mom


they have her on yet another 'trial'

-having her breathe on her own

this is rough on her, they make her do all the work

no machine assisting her breathing

so she has to do the huffing and puffing herself

she'll stay off the machine for as long as she can

little by little

day by day
