Journal entry by Ashley Jernigan —
This is the best update so far! They were able to remove the tube and use of the ventilator today and she is holding steady with just oxygen on the nose. She is trying to talk but it’s hard to understand some of what she’s saying because she’s had the tube down her throat for almost 2 weeks. She’s very emotional which is completely understandable. Tomorrow should be even better because she won’t have have any sedation meds working their way out of her system. The Lord worked a miracle here and I’m so thankful!
