Lorelai update. It has been confirmed by multiple doctors and staff at two hospitals now that Lorelai is in fact, fiesty and makes all her own rules and does things in her own time frame (medically and otherwise) Lol. Oh, we know!! Today, they are keeping her off the vent for the whole day to see how she tolerates cpap. She will only be on the vent overnight so she can rest. This is amazing news for her!!! That tube might be coming out of her throat eventually!! Yay!! Neurosurgery is running a test to see how she handles not having a shunt at all. So far she is doing okay but they will do an MRI Monday and check her csf pressures. One less brain surgery would be fantastic so let's hope all goes well with that. The words "step down unit" and "home" have been mentioned this week and we haven't heard those words for a month!! Things have sure changed for the better in the past week. Lorelai says it's the prayers working.
