Finally after 21 days I got to hold Hannah again, & Tom got to hold her for the very first time. Apart from when they were moving her to & from the bed she was very content with being held. (check Facebook for pictures)
Her kidneys are still not working, so she continues on dialysis, but they believe she has got rid of all the excess fluid in her body so now it's just to remove the waste products that the kidneys normally would. Her arms and legs still feel a bit hard, but that is due to fat deposit under the skin from when her circulation was poor & with time it will disipate.
She is slowly weaning off the ventilator, but it will still be some time before she comes off it completely. At the moment she is managing about an hour all by her self.
