Kayla's Room
"Kayla, it's time to wake up" Once she complied he explained that she was able to be taken off the ventilator.
"All right Kayla you know the drill, deep breath in and out" After a few coughs she settled down.
"How are you feeling Kayla?"
"Sleepy"
"How's the pain today?"
"I feel great"
"We'll observe you for 12 hours and then see about releasing you"
"That sounds good"
