Marie's first CAT scan after her surgery has shown that the swelling has increased slightly. The Doctors are monitoring this closely. The surgery was done to allow the brain to have room to swell. It is considered a lower level of swelling.
Marie was breathing on her own and so they removed the ventilator this afternoon! She has responded well to neurological testing (even better than yesterday). She can respond to requests to move her right arm, legs and has sensation in her left arm. It is evident that she knows what people are saying. Jillian made a joke to Marie and she even cracked a small smile!
We are still awaiting the results of some of her other testing. We will post more information as soon as we can.
