She’s AWAKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That is right, this morning at about 7am we got a call from the nurse looking after Aria saying that was awake and she wanted to see her mummy and daddy.
I rushed over and was so happy to see her turn and look at me when I came in the door and said hello. Everything was moving, her  arms, legs and head, she was a busy little bee. She is pretty frustrated though, she has all these annoying tubes everywhere and she is trying to get used to them and/or trying to get rid of them.
Her breathing tube may be removed in the next day or so, she has another washout scheduled today to get rid of some more bugs. She has been pulling and pushing the tape holding it in trying to make it more comfortable for herself. We have also been trying to explain to her that her Nasal-gastric tube is her new friend and will be with her for some time. She wasn’t so keen on that but she has stopped playing with it so much.
Her personality is still there in full effect, directing the medical staff to go when she had enough and making it pretty clear when she does and doesn’t want something to happen. She is pretty hard to understand when she wants something though. The tube in her mouth stops her talking so it is all waiving of hands and pointing with hands and feet. For all our sakes I hope she gets extubated soon.
We are very happy to have our girl back with us and are keen for things to keep progressing as smoothly as they have so far. Thanks for all the prayers and comments they are appreciated.
God has been very gracious to us many times in keeping Aria with us and he is doing great things in her and through her and for that we praise Him.
