Evening, June 2

(e-mail from B. Parady)

It was a rough night, and they sedated Sabina with propofol to limit the storming. During the day, Dr Mayer took over Sabina's case from Neurosurgery, taking it back to neurology. They are now titrating Sabina's drugs to limit the storming and give her as much functioning as possible.

Sabina had the start of a storm late in the day and the nurse hit a dispense button on some new drug, and the storm went away.

Sabina is on a full feeding and doing well at this point. They are keeping her on a respirator to minimize the stresses on her until they can manage the storms.

Originally I was planning on flying back to see Sabina today and be with Shelly, but am delaying since Shelly's sister will be at her side starting tomorrow night. I will return to New York until after her sister's visit.

My prayers are for Sabina's continued good care, and for Sabina's improving health and strength.
