ICU #44

Yes - that's our Linda (sitting up with the ubiquitous whiteboard) looking for folks to help her escape!!  And yes - she's purposefully looking scared! It was surprisingly easy to get this photo on - maybe we'll post more - first steps...first real food...

So - they've found some more fluid in the pleural cavity and they're wondering if this is causing some kind of pressure on the lungs and hindering the ventilator weaning process. Doing an x-ray and ultrasound this afternoon and from the results, will decide if they need to insert a tube into the cavity to drain the fluid.

Lucille and I are going to Lynne's daughter's (Jen) for Thanksgiving dinner - yum!!
