For the first two weeks Hannah was home, we frequently had to tweak her oxygen up from .25 liters to .35 or .40, to keep her saturation levels above 90%. Yesterday, she went all day at .25 liters. This could be a sign that she's becoming less dependent on the supplemental oxygen. Once she can go for several days with saturations above 95% at .25 liters, she may be ready to come off the oxygen. Of course, the pulmonologist will be the one to make that decision.
For those of you with broadband access, click here to see a quick video (7MB) of Hannah looking bored but alert. For those without high-speed internet, here's a photo to tide you over.

Comments will be added to the blog as soon as we see them. This delay is needed to keep spammers from using Hannah's blog to advertise junk and spread viruses. -- Karl
