I think she would try anything at this point, but having almost died from respiratory failure she can't smoke. And you're right, she can't even choke down a 'brownie'. She does get hungry, but can't stomach any solid food going down her throat. I'm wondering if it's a reaction to having all the tubes down her throat while she was intubated. She had at one point atleast 4 different tubes. It's been 3 weeks since she was extubated and she has just gotten her voice back. Her doctor told her if the situation doesn't change he is going to send her to a neurologist. He thinks she may have suffered minor brain damage due to the deprivation of oxygen. She is having dizzy, vertigo like symptoms also. Thanks for your thoughts. I want so badly to be able to help her.
