She's gonna need a new nickname!

Kevin saw an x-ray of Averi's lungs, and it is NOT walnut-sized. It is now HALF the size of the other lung! The doctors are very happy with this, and so are Kevin & Teresa! They have not changed the ETT yet, just a connector so far, and she is taking time to recover from even that. The worry in changing the ETT tube is that the lungs will collapse from being extubated, and then they'll have to start the reinflating thing all over again. They have ruled everything out except something clogging the ETT that the suctioning tube can't get.
