7:23 Am Wednesday
Yesterday Leah was "weaned" off the ventilator and the breathing tube was removed.
She hasn't wanted to talk, but considering she was intubated that is not surprising.
The doctor has labeled Leah's condition: Brain injury due to lack of oxygen or
Cerebral hypoxia . The doctors are reluctant to tell us how much damage Leah has suffered
and how soon she will recover, it depends on three things, G-d, Leah and the amount of brain tissue deprived of oxygen, and the speed with which oxygen was restored to the brain. They are optimistic because even though it felt like a life time to us, she was in a coma for a short time.
Thank you all for continuing to pray for her.

Good news. Tell Leah she has to talk, we are waiting to hear from her! We continue to pray for her total healing. We love her, she is one of God's chosen people, just like all of Israel. We love Israel and we love the Jewish people. They are the apple of God's eye!!!!!!!!!Praying, praying, praying.
Veuillez dire Leah que je serai en Israel avril 18, j'espèrent qu'elle sera assez bonne pour me voir. Dites- quelui I l'aiment.
I am glad that Leah is breathing on her own. Thank you for the post and please tell Leah that Bill and Roxi says HI and we will continue to pray for her. Marc, thank you for the email with all the information on Leahs condition. It really means alot to me. Tell Leah and all the Friedman family to hang in there.
