It's late

We stayed too late at the hospital tonight.  Our only news is that the word extubaiton was spoken during rounds this morning.  She has an MRI tomorrow which they need her intubated for since she'll be heavily sedated.  Then  as long as her numbers stay good we might be able to say good by to the ET tube in the next couple days.

Pictures and a full update will be posted tomorrow. We promise.

That sounds like a great way

That is so exciting!! I have been following Ruby's journey and she is so amazing. Our son Weston is a CDH survivor too. They are such amazing, strong kids. Praying that soon she'll be breathing on her own no more ET tube...bye bye ventilator.
