Breathing a shallow sigh of relief

We had a good day today.

Ida's breathing tube is out and she's doing well without it. David spent the afternoon with her (my dad kept him company).

She asked how Leah is - most important question first! - and joked a little bit with the nurses. She was able to tell them if she is uncomfortable, and she realizes what happened - and that it's been a close call.

We might be able to leave the ICU behind tomorrow, or maybe Wednesday.

David's step was much lighter when he came in the door this evening. We're still cautiously optimistic, but so far, things are continuing on a positive note. We've made it through another day, and tomorrow's looking good too.

Thanks so much for the kind thoughts and prayers... Every one of them has helped tremendously.
