Just wanted to send out a quick update. It is hard to explain everything that has been going on.
Yesterday, Hannah had two episodes where she had difficulty breathing and then eventually stopped breathing all together. She needed to be bagged and turned blue before they were able to get her going again.
We are not sure what happened. There are a lot of theories involving trach placement, trach length, and other things. At this point no one knows what really caused the episodes.
Hannah is back on the vent and has been stable now for over 24 hours. They have been weaning the vent again and she is doing fine right now.
Please pray that either we figure out and fix what caused the episodes yesterday, or they just plain do not occur again.
Adam and I were there to witness one of her episodes and I'm not sure I will ever forget seeing everyone rush to her bedside and work on her.
Please pray for a stable airway and strong breathing for Hannah.
