Hurricane

Of course, just one more thing for us to worry about. We have spent a good part of today trying to get stuff in case the hurricane hits here and we lose power. The grocery store was insane! But we were able to purchase what we needed. The hospital staff said we could stay in the waiting room at the hospital during the storm.
On to more important things.
Drew is doing good! They have put off taking out her breathing tube again. They said possibly tomorrow. Her lungs are too wet, If they take out the tube today they might have to replace it. They are using the tube in the ventilator to suction fluid out of her lungs. She is now off of fentnyl which is very addictive. They had to wean her off of fentnyl by giving her methadone. Thank God she is totally off that medicine.
