Thank you so much for your continuing prayers and support. It is truly heartwarming during this stressful time. Mariana is still in a coma but she is no longer in ICU, which is a great achievement, as she is stable and many functions are working on their own. She is now in a pediatric subacute care facility where they are very positive and caring with Mariana. They have been sitting her up in a wheelchair, and she is now able to go outside for fresh air, or to the activity room for more stimulation. They are giving her physical therapy to keep her muscles working, sensory therapy - using favorite songs, music and scents. It was wonderful to see her lean into the chocolate smell, so typical of Mariana. She is still breathing with the aid of a respirator, however she is needing less oxygen than before, and often breathing on her own. The goal is to wean her off of the respirator completely. 

Thank you for your continued prayers and support.
