Friday

Elise is doing really well since being extubated. She is down to 1 1/2 liters via nasal cannula and as of tonight is off all iv meds. She does continue to have withdrawal from all the narcotics which is hard to watch. She is very weak and still cannot stand on her own and even has trouble holding her arms up to play they are so weak. She did eat small bites of food today and drank water. She still has a feeding tube to help with nourishment. We are not sure how long her withdrawal will last, but it could still be a couple more days. I'll keep posting in the evenings.
