Breathing test - July 6th - Tori over achieved

Of course we can all understand that Tim is pretty tired at this point. Between looking after Tori and taking Brendan to the pool, it would exhaust anyone!

Tori today over achieved and it should not go un-mentioned.

In the early afternoon, the respiratory team decided to test Tori's ability to breath through her Trach on her own. They basically standby the respirator and place a 'humidificator' over her Trach. They wanted to observe how she would do for a period of 60 minutes. Maria and Tim said that several were skeptical she would last the whole hour.

I didn't get to the hospital until probably 4:45pm tonight and guess what? The clock on the respirator read 3h30 standby time.
She went on and stayed for 4 hours and 4 minutes without the respirator's assistance!

Tori, please continue to find the strength in yourself to heal.

Tim, Maria, you guys are awesome and we could not wish for better parents for Tori, Whitney and Brendan right now.
Love,
-Guy
