Over the past couple of days, Angela hasen't responded too well to any attempts of closing off the trach and allowing her to try to breathe on her own. This morning, they are going to do another chest x-ray to look at the condition of her lungs again and check for any fluid build up. Today, a skin specialist will see her and assess the condition and treatment of the wound on her backside.
Angela will undergo dialysis again today around 3pm for approx. 3-4 hours. Depending on how tired she is from that, they may attempt to plug the trach again and see if she can take any breaths on her own. The nurse also said they will try to get her into the chair again at some point through the day. I will be visiting Angela today and will post more if there is anything worthy.
