Elizabeth is still doing well, considering. She has tolerated the continued wean of her pentabarb and the increase of her feedings. I dont think I updated but they stopped her the TPN (IV nutrition) so she is just getting IV fluids and her formula now. She is still on the fentanyl drip, clonadine patch and the pentabarb. Her ventilator settings were decreased a little last week, down to 15 on the peep, (She was on 17). So she is tolerating that well too. They had asked about decreasing it again this week but we prefer to wait for transplant to be back and get  their opinion on that before we change it. She seems VERY comfortable, sleeping alot. We have been sitting her up more often since her vent setting are down some, hoping it will help her be ready for transplant and recovery. We held her for a little while earlier this week, and she did well with it. Other than that not much to update. The transplant coordinator stopped by today and told Matt that they plan to reactivate her on the list by noon tomorrow. So we will start waiting for "the call" again.
