Today Emilie was extubated. Actually she self-extubated. While Holly was kangarooing her, Emilie reached up and removed the tape from the side of her face which was holding her ET tube in place. We suspected this would happen because she’s been playing with the tube all week. Well today she finally accomplished her mission (as you can see she’s lifting her hand in praise for the tube being gone!) The good thing in this is that the doctors were planning to extubate her today anyway, she just beat them to it.
While many babies her age normally require re-intubation several times after they’ve been extubated, Holly and I are not claiming this for Emilie. We are believing that she will not require re-intubation. We believe her lungs are strong enough to carry the load, and that God will sustain.
