More details for Wednesday Jan 24th - 16 days old

So more of the same information as before. Gracie is slowly coming down on drips and the medicine/drugs that they are giving her. She is starting to do a lot of the things that the drugs have been really responsible for which is good news. She is making her own oxygen now, so that machine might go away soon, but the machine that makes the oxygen is separate from the ventilator, which she may still require. One other discussion is that she may have to have a permanent pacemaker. Most doctors are in favor of it, but the surgeon disagrees. He thinks she only needs more time, so we will have to wait and see how that discussion progresses.
