Update 1-10-13
After a couple of tense days of electrolyte imbalance, it looks like Mom's numbers are stabilizing. James was at the hospital this morning when the doctor decided to extubate. Mom got the breathing tube out this morning and she's done great today. She can talk pretty well and says her throat doesn't hurt when she talks. She is a little confused (common for anyone who has been intubated) and starts to say some things that don't make sense, but comes back pretty quick. She is very adamant that she wants to come home and asks just about everyone that comes in to either take her home (if they're family) or "what are we waiting on" (if they're staff). They'll continue to monitor in the ICU for a little bit and then they'll transfer her to a step down unit. Thanks to everyone for your prayers and support. Thank God for her extubation and stability!!
