All right, then. The kid turned her head and looked me right in the eye!! Gary was there and he anxiously waived me to come quickly to her. She was awake, calm, and I even got a wink!!!! Yes, it was a wink! But then she closed her eyes. She calmly squeezed my hand once or twice. But when she entered deep sleep I left.
Procedures to come:
Tim says she is still "an add on" for tracheostomy today. 5 p.m.? 9?
Perhaps tomorrow she has back surgery.
Perhaps Wednesday feeding tube will be inserted into her stomach.
Her potholder mit is off her left hand and her hand is showing. She just has restraints on both arms. Oh, and she lifted her right arm.
