What a great day. Ella had a day filled with friends, fun and progress. The day started with an hour off of the ventilator and no breathing support at all. Our warrior maintained herself quite well during that hour. She had several visitors throughout the day including our friend Cindy who came and dropped off some puzzles and played with Ella long enough to let daddy shower. Thank you Cindy.
Nana and Poppy also drove down from Massachusetts to spend some time with Ella. Their visit coincided with Ella's second hour trial off of the ventilator. This gave her the opportunity to go outside with her to visit the fish pond. Though we were not outside for very long it was great to get some fresh air. The day ended with a special visit from Leila, Dasha and Princess - three friends from church. And the ladies brought a very special present with them a bear named Super Ella. When Ella received her bear she started to hug it and say "this is like a super me". Our angel is super. Everyday she gets stronger, everyday she does more, everyday she takes a step closer to getting back to where she was before this episode occurred.
To illustrate exactly what I mean you can see or rather hear for yourself just how well she is doing. Enjoy the video clip below that demonstrates how well our baby is doing. We are all more than conquerors.
