EXTUBATED!

Just a quick note to share that Liam is now breathing on her own for the last 48 hours.  Earlier this morning she was extubated - that is, the breathing tube, which went through her mouth and throat and into the lungs and which caused her to gag constantly, was finally removed.  BIG news for a girl who just 10 days ago was non-responsive.  More later.....mmmmmaybe.
