Day 27, ICU

Joni will have a bronchoscope today and they will attempt to discontinue the ventilator.  They decreased vent settings last night and are continuing to keep her very comfortable.  The feeding tube is in place and they are using it for crushed meds. She is already moving all of her limbs really well and still trying to talk over the tube in her throat so we expect she will have a lot to say when it comes out! She may be feisty but she’s also getting plenty of quiet rest. Overall, Joni is progressing perfectly.
