Thanks bro. I hope your mom improves too. The same night that I posted that she got her breathing tube removed, they had to put it back in. Tomorrow, she will get a tracheostomy tube and the gastrostomy tube for feeding. They feel this is a necessary, and hopefully temporary plan, until she can handle her own secretions and swallow. She has been responding to commands, but is only awake sporadically. We have our hopes up at least.
Thanks you all!
Bill
