The ventilator was removed today temporarily to give her lungs a break, especially since there will be several more surgeries to come. Lisa was talking and in good spirits. She is still in a lot of pain and doctors have not determined if she has any undetected injuries, so far the majority of her injuries have been identified on her left side. Lisa was running a low grade fever, doctors say it's nothing to be too concerned over - her body is just fighting infection. She drank some water, ate a couple crackers, and a little jello today. Her doctor is wanting to do the reconstructive surgery to her leg tomorrow. Lisa says to tell everyone, thank you for your thoughts and prayers. She really appreciates everyone's concern.
