Off the Intubator!

Michalla is off the Intubator! She is still in ICU but is now only breathing on an oxygen machine rather than having the tube down her throat into her trachea.  This is great news. She still has the drainage tubes coming off her lungs.  She is in a lot of pain but the fact that they were able to remove the intubator already is great!  Many unknowns but another big day.

Michalla will kill me for posting this (This is Michalla's urine)  Poor girl.  It burns her so bad to go pee.

This is the sweetest nurse in the world.  Carla, who is on leave right now and isn't even working, came to see Michalla and hold her hand even though she knew Michalla wouldn't even know she was there.  I love this woman.  The nurses at Primary Children's become your friends and family.
