Movin' on up

My sources on the inside tell me that Mom has now completely been weaned off of the ventilator and is now only taking oxygen through the trach tube. This is great news because it means that she has been cleared to be moved out of the ICU! In fact, I was told that the only reason she is still there now is that there are no beds currently available in the area she is to be moved too.

Today Mom is scheduled for the laryngectomy, the procedure to install the South Park Ned speaker, so hopefully by the time we see her tomorrow we won't have to write anything anymore and can just have a nice conversation. I believe that's all I have for now.

Top o' the mornin' to ya and Happy St. Patrick's Day.
