Sofia has improved a lot in the last 48 hours. She got a good night's rest and is now breathing a lot more easily. She's down from 100 to 40% oxygen and 6L of flow and will be back on her full feeds later today. She still is on her pain meds and is still in withdrawal from her opiates but is getting a bit better. She's also finally learned to cough and swallow a bit of her secretions but also gags a lot.
Here she is with a bit of smile while watching TV.
She's got a long way to go still (7-10 days say the docs) and she's blown her IVs again, but everyone is feeling a bit more confident she will make it out.
Here's Daniel having a good time at home w/ Grandma eating his watermelon.
