Day 5~Eyes open



Mary Graham had a good night, her fluids and gas came down and this morning they extubated her (took her off the ventilator). It went smoothly and now she has actually been awake some with her eyes open. The doctor said the next 24 hours are crucial for her lungs and breathing. Her heart rate and O2 levels are good right now, she is breathing faster, but it takes time to adjust from being off the ventilator, especially with all her lungs have been through, and the right not being 100% before the surgery. They are monitoring her very closely.

Praise God for the steps she has made and we ask you not to cease praying for the 24 hours and even there after, each day is important. Pray for her lungs and breathing and for no other issues or complications to arise that would set her back. The Lord has heard our prayers and we are so grateful for those of you crying out to Him on her behalf. It has been awesome to see her eyes open.
