thank god for texting!


a lot of people don't like this 'texting thing'

it's a life-line for me and my kid

and i just had a wonderful session

she told me all about

-that they're moving her upstairs

-and how happy she is about getting out of CTICU

-and that she got some 'signed' stuff from

the world champion boston red sox players

-and that she's got a smaller trach tube

-and that they're gunna work on helping her talk

(a matter of time)

she sounded great and she also said that

she misses me soooooooooooooooo much


THANK GOD FOR TEXTING

suddenly, cooperative

now, all of a sudden

this nurse wanted to tell me everything

-i couldn't get her off the phone

wonder what's changed


she said acacia's in her chair resting

she's been busy

went for a ride in the wheelchair

went for a walk

had the trach tube replaced with a smaller one

got her 'transfer orders' (she's moving upstairs!)



the nurse said that her rash goes away when they treat it

and that she hasn't been on the ventilator for 'awhile'

at night she's gets assistance with the bipap (creating pressure in lungs)

and all day long, she breaths with her new lungs

-with an oxygen mask (set at the lowest setting)


she's doing good, and has come a long, long way

we'll see what 'upstairs' brings
