ICU, Day 14

Mom got her teeth brushed with a real toothbrush and toothpaste, and her hair washed with real shampoo and water today. Audrey is a blast of a nurse. There is no verdict about what do to with the abscess, or what to do about a trache. Her white count has gone down more, and her temperature is staying pretty normal now. Her swelling has gone down more too. Her left side looks great, her right side is almost normal. So it's just a matter of waiting to see what the doctors say. I've been telling her every day this week what day it is, and reminding her that her sister comes out on Friday, so she'll fight to be better so she can visit with her.
