Hannah Update









Things have been much more stable with Hannah. She has pretty much weaned off of CPAP and back onto her trach collar. She has had no other episodes of breathing trouble, though we still have not figured out what happened during the episodes. We are just thankful she has been stable.

Her nissen g-tube surgery is scheduled for tomorrow morning. Before they can do the surgery she needs to be tested one more time for her infection to make sure it is gone.

We had a family conference with the doctors today to talk about Hannah's care plan. If all goes according to plan, we should be able to have Hannah home within 2 weeks after her stomach surgery.

We still have a lot of things to do before Hannah comes home. Please pray for us as we make decisions and ready the house for her to come home.
