So Lilia was extubated early this morning. Without oxygen her sats are 89/90, with they are 99/100. So it looks like she'll need O2 for a little while at least. but shes so much happier with the tube gone.
The plan is for her to be out of the CCU tomorrow and up on 4D, then hopefully go home in a couple days.
her left lung is better now that they got a lot of the muscus out of it, and shes coughing well rught now to get the rest out. Her lower part of the left lung is no good anymore, and is jsut a pool of infection so they want to remove it. However they want to do it when shes in top shape so they are looking at doing it in a few months, since she has coped pretty good without the use of that part anyways.
the stent, they arnt sure what to do about it since there isnt much they can do without risking her life. They might put a balloon in and try and make it bigger, but its risky so they are gonna think on it for a few months, and see what happens.
She should be stable enough to go home in a few days (as long as nothing else happens) the stent shouldnt move anymore, not that soon anyways...so she should be ok at home. Just soemthing will have to been done in the near future to fix this.
