They are reducing sedation now that she is on the tracheostomy, she is more aware of her surroundings. But this means more pain. Also this has happened right when they are starting physical therapy...she is not happy. Breathing has not improved today but hard to tell with all the new activities she has. They want get her moving so her body won't get weak.
PT got her sitting up on the bed today with her feet dangling :) well with some support, but still a victory.
Doctors ordered a CAT scan today to make sure she has no blood clots. Will also be used to check how lungs are doing. Although Jane is improving doctors want to see faster improvement. The CAT scan will give them great pictures so they can make sure they are not missing anything.
It sounds kinda funny to me but when the did the tracheostomy they used a kit. They used what they called a tracheostomy kit on a box. Yes it did come in box picture below!
