Our little conqueror has taken to the tracheostomy like a champ. In a previous post I mentioned that mom and the medical staff were trying to devise a pain management regime that minimized the occasion of discomfort, but also did not promote dependency or become habit forming. With less pain Ella can concentrate on getting stronger/healthier. In fact over the last several days we have seen Ariella do more with the trach than she did the entire month without it. It is becoming increasingly more apparent that this was the right decision for Ella to improve her overall quality. In fact Ella has been doing so well that she earned a special trip outside to the healing garden. The garden has rocks and wind chimes and small statues that Ella got see and touch and breath fresh air. It was a great experience.
In addition to the outdoor activities, Ella has also started to do some tasting and eating through her mouth she had a banana almost 8 ounces of water and some chocolate. This little girl is an absolute wonder and continues to soar.
Thank you all for your prayers for your diligence and for continuing to hold up mom and I. We are all more than conquerors.
