I can hardly believe just a week ago Golightly's life changed forever.
The latest update:
"Today Golightly had the tracheotomy (breathing tube inserted into the neck) and the feeding tube inserted directly into the stomach. She did very well with it and is looking quite rested and peaceful. She shows signs of improved reflexes. It's an uphill battle that she is climbing slowly but surely. She will have a busy and eventful weekend as many friends and family members will be back to visit."
I know it's not much of an update, but at least everything went well with the removal of the ventilator. Keep believing for her, people!
UPDATED Saturday the 21 12:48am cst:
Oops, guess I was wrong about the ventilator. This is the latest update via e-mail from a friend who just left the hospital.
"We just left the hospital tonight and wow is it different @ Baylor.
Today they put a trech in, according to Cowboy she did actually take a
few breaths on her own. She isn't breathing enough on her own so they
are leaving her attached to the vent. She still has swelling in her
brain so we just keep waiting on that. Good news is the docs aren't
ruling out a recovery of some kind. Its far off and would be a very
long road but its something to hope for.
That's all we know right now. Hope to have more tomorrow. She looks so
good today. Its almost like she is just sleeping and will wake up @
any time."

Stopping by to say Hi and see the latest on Golightly.
It's very nice of you to take the time to do this.
You know, I was just checking your blog, and thinking that you need to post about something else, too.
Please, keep us posted on what's going on with Golightly, because we're all praying for her and want to know how she's doing, but don't forget that we want to hear how you're doing, too, and how your beautiful little girl is doing, as well.
