Natalie – Status Update

March 28, 2026

When we arrived today, they were just about to flip Natalie from her stomach to her back. She had stabilized quite a bit and with a goal of weaning her off of sedation, getting her back to her back was a necessary step. The flip went well and she was able to stay on her back. She has remained sedated for the day. Our expectation is that they will begin bringing her back either tomorrow or Monday. Personally, I am hoping the sedation is removed tomorrow and they are able to work towards a Monday extubation.

It was a really boring day for Natalie. Time in her room is VERY quiet. (Not words you will generally hear me say about spending time with my darling daughter).
