Hannah says Hi!

Today the doctors said that there is some brain damage in the frontal lobe. This will affect her short term memory, her ability to filter what is appropriate to say or do and will cause her to have a short fuse. We are hopeful that this is temporary.
She is being weaned from the ventilator and is doing really well. She is asking to go home and seems determined to get back to her own bed. She even asked if she could just take her tubes with her and go home. The doc says maybe just another week in the ICU.
She was concerned that no one had called her students to let them know that she wouldnt be there tonight! She continues to seem surprised that so many people care about her. I dont think she knows the half of it. They have increased her nutrition. (Think her mother had anything to do with that?) She still has her sense of humor and asked me today what the big secret was when mother and I were talking quietly in the corner so she could sleep. She has been a little loopy from the medication and seems to be hearing things a little. Other than that we are all amazed at how quickly she is recovering.
