Today the whole ICU had smiles on their faces. Angela tolerated changing to the "regular" ventilator very well, then she got off the rotating bed and onto a "regular" bed, and she was a little bit responsive, being able to nod her head in answer to a question and squeeze fingers in her hand. The ketamine that she has had for sedation is being tapered off at a fast pace, so tomorrow she will probaby be even more awake.
I am so full of thanks to God first, but also to the entire staff at the hospital. They have been nothing short of wonderful. I was reminded that she still will have bumps in her road to recovery, but for right now I will simply rejoice at what is today.
