Hi all,
Ella and I are back in Hexham as Ella's having her annual asthma episode (prompted by some kind of pollen - wish we knew what !!). So after a sleepless night for all of us the cavalry are coming in the shape of my mother-in-law and we'll be based here for the next few days at least, while Janie stays at Crawford House.
Anna continues to do really well; the ventilator is being turned down and down so she's doing most of the breathing now, with only about 8 breaths a minute from the machine.
The reduced morphine has meant that Anna's much more aware too. Having not seen her eyes open for over two days (and thelast time she was so zonked her eyes were practically revolving in opposite directions), I had the treat of Anna's undivided attention for a good half hour last night. Happy to report that she can follow moving objects - including my ugly mug. So that's the first time she's definitely been aware of me. Anna's face has lost a lot of the puffiness so we're seeing what she 'really' looks like now. And that's beautiful. More photos soon!
