March 26, 3:30p update

Sorry for missing the updates the last couple of days. Linda's at a point now in her recovery where she continues to make daily progress and, thankfully, there isn't a lot of new details each day. So, I'm going to be updating this blog every few days or as new news dictates.

Linda's tracheotomy on Wednesday afternoon went very well. With the ventilator tube out of her mouth her sores will be able to heal and she will be able to begin speech therapy.

Her kidneys are continuing to respond and she's doing well with her physical therapy. She's currently undergoing a 3 1/2 dialysis treatment which they will continue every other day. Her doctor's are planning on moving her feeding tube from her nose to her abdomen later today, which will make her much more comfortable. She's down to only 4 IVs and breathing tubes attached to her which is a great improvement! :-)

With her infection under control and her overall health improving, they're focusing their attention on helping her regain her strength.

Thank you again for all of your love and continued faith on Linda's behalf. We're excited to see her progress and thankful that she is still with us.
