The Big Day

Yesterday Gabriella finally came off her ventilator. She was put on a CPAP machine to help with the pressure in lungs and to give her a little bit of oxygen. She is doing great and breathing on her own now.

This was before they took the ventilator out.

This is her new CPAP machine. She gets to wear this funny looking hat, to hold the tubes in the right places.

And now we finally get to hold her again!



It was so nice to finally be able to hold her again. She seemed to enjoy it, she didn't make a sound the whole time. We are so happy that she is doing so well!
