Courtney's lung is still leaking air. Doctors are concerned that the leak should be much less by now. There may be another CT in 1 day or 2. If there is still air around that lung drs will have to operate to repair the damaged lung.
Unless the lung is repaired Courtney will have a difficult time coming off the ventilator.
Although we've been praying for the healing of Courtney's lungs for sometime we believe that God will work his miracles at his pace. As much as we want to avoid surgery we will trust that surgeons will work skillfully to repair Courtney's lungs.
Otherwise Courtney has been breathing on her own all day today. Despite some ocassional pain and discomfort she did wel today but was not as alert because of pain medication.
We received many beautiful cards from CCD classes and other friends and family.
Thank you for your continued thoughts and prayers. Be on the lookout for information on donating Courtney Bears for children at Hasbro Children's Hospital at Christmas.

Hope Courtney is doing well today. I assume you have gotten my emails, but if not, everything is moving forward with the teddy bear drive. So far the only official collection spot is Cranston East in the main office, but I hope to have others set up within the next couple days.
