Almost to Idle State

I recieved word last night that they have reduced the ECMO to only 15% and Oleyen's lungs are doing the rest. When they get down to 10%, she will be at an "idle" state. When she's at idle for 8 hours, they consider her weaned. She will then be allowed to heal for a few days and have surgery probably on thursday. She's doing well, and we are all hoping that the good news keeps coming. I've been having a few troubles with the redirection of this site, so if you get a page that says "Index Directory for Oleyen" then something screwed up. I'm trying to fix it.
Till later...
