ELizabeth is doing soo good! We got moved into a private room within the PICU. So we are able to stay the night with her now and can do more as far as taking care of her ~AKA we get to change the diapers~ :)  They plan to decrease the amount of her steroids over the next 4 days to completely wean her off of them. And they have started decreasing the dose of morphine and ativan to continue to wean her off. She only showed a few withdrawl symptoms today which is good, means that the step down medicine is working for her. And if all goes well they should be able to take the central line IV out.  She only cried a few times today and smiled a whole lot! She will be in PICU for a few more days and them probably moved to a regular room until she is ready to go home.
