Cassie’s Journey – May 8th

Cassie has continued to make tremendous progress in her breathing ability without the ventilator. Today she was able to tolerate 7 hours of room air without the support of a ventilator. She beat her record of 4 hours from yesterday. While on the room air she had a physical therapy and occupational therapy session where they were able to sit her up on the side of the bed. While sitting up she was able to move her legs and arms with assistance from the staff. She has not been in pain today after the amputation yesterday as the medical staff continue to monitor the pain levels.
