Day 19 Fish Oil Study

 

Yes Selah is watching Sesame Street on her DVD player!!  I bought that DVD player "in faith" the first time she grimaced and we could tell she was "waking up" some!  Now I love to see her watching it!

 

I thought this was a cool picture last night before the Thanksgiving Dinner at the RMH with all the kids at the table...reminds me of that picture I've seen before of the table set in heaven:)

 

 

So today is a quiet day for Selah.  She has lots of mucus that she is getting out.  She is coughing some and just blowing it out of her trach.  She just has a cold nothing serious but you can tell she doesn't feel like  herself.   That picture of her is for real, she is actually watching the video.  She turns her head when she is done.  She watched it through two times then turned to the other side of the bed. 

 

I know alot of folks don't understand how she could be considered to be in a coma now since she looks so normal.  Well think of it this way,  have you ever had drugs for a medical procedure?  I did for a colonschopy earlier this year,  after they were done, I was still "out of it".  But I was talking some....but my brain was altered.   That is not exactly how she is but that is a good comparison.  Comas have different levels to them.  She is in a very light coma right now.  There are times during the day that she is not responsive even with her eyes open.  It's hard to explain and I didn't understand until we lived through it...

 

 

We still don't know if we are leaving on Tuesday or not....we are supposed to find out on Monday.   How's that for keeping it real?  

 

Thanks for all your prayers and please keep praying for Selah!
