My husband and I have been following your story for a wee while. I just wanted to say that you are an inspiration to us. We are thinking of you and praying for you all (and especially Aria).

so so sorry the day has ended this way… praying the time will come again that she can ex-tubate & stay that way.

Thank you for your updates every day, we do so appreciate it.What a bummer that she has had to be intubated again. You said in an earlier post that a tracheotomy might be an option, has this not been mentioned again? I would have thought that this would be more comfortable for Aria even if she still couldn’t talk. Praying as always for speedy healing and patience for you both.

It’s good to read about your day – probably its difficult for you to write it as you go but its very interesting! Yay to Aria for trying so hard off the vent today, tomorrow is another day. Don’t look ahead my friends, stay in the moment and that helps you to cope.

So excited that she has had the best part of a day off the tube – and equally bummed out that she’s had to be intubated again. Lot’s of love and hugs coming your way!

Thank you for sharing your day with us all. I’m so sorry to hear that Aria is being intubated again, must be very hard to watch and a real roller coster of emotions on a day like today has been for you. Hope you all manage to have a restful night, thinking of you all always, Lisa D
