Our best friend is in ICU tonight

Well my gf made it through the surgery ok and was in the recovery room and when they tried to remove the ventilator she did not start breathing on her own. They tried a second time and it also didn't work so they have her in ICU tonight and will not even try again until tomorrow. They are just going to let her rest and try to recover from the trauma of the surgery. We did get in to see her for a few minutes and it is hard to see her hooked up to all that and I can see her disappointment and fear in her eyes. The dr did go in while the family was there and was reassuring to them all that he thinks she will be doing much better tomorrow. We are all praying for her to be able to breathe on her own. The dr did say he was having a lung specialist come in just to make sure nothing else was wrong.

So we are all worn out tonight from this news and from seeing her like this. She is our dearest friend. She and I went to grade school and high school together and have been friends for all our lives.

Peace, courage, love and good health
Aly
