now that the big scary machine is gone
forever we hope, the nurse cleaned her up
and now she's resting
comfortably, hopefully
she's still under heavy sedation
they decided to let her rest and heal more today
and for the rest of the evening
and maybe tomorrow, they will do the tracheostomy
tracheotomy |ˌtrākēˈätəmē| (also tracheostomy |-ˈästəmē|) noun ( pl. -mies)
an incision in the windpipe made to relieve an obstruction to breathing.
they need to get the ventilator out of her throat
lots of time there's damage to the voice box
i can't imagine what it would be like to never hear her
sweet little voice again
that would shatter my life
and living so far apart with only the phone as our lifeline
well -whew
we'll see what tomorrow brings
