We had a glitch and you did not get the first two on time. We'll sort that out but for now a friend will be forwarding to you.
Emily is out of surgery. She has new donor lungs. She is on a ventilator, as planned. Still in recovery and we have not seen her yet. Dr Mulligan her transplant surgeon was pleased. The lungs are inflated and she is perfusing well. Her old lungs were just about ruined.
More as we find out, probably later tomorrow, this will be a long night for her but she will do well.
Keith
just got word, she is now in icu, we will see her in 30 minutes.
Just checking to see if comments work.
