Resting now

We made the right choice to put Gabi back on the ventilator. Her lungs were filling with blood and she would not have been able to get that much out on her own. Her oxygen levels were staying too low and she was getting scared (she probably felt a little like she was drowning). The team did a great job of getting the tube in quickly so that she was breathing better. The plan is to let her lungs take a break (the machine will breathe for her) while her body heals and hopefully the bleeding will stop. In the meantime, she is resting well and we are hoping that the excitement for the night is over. Thank you God for taking care of our sweet little Gabi.
