AM Tuesday update

We talked with an MD who's job it is to play a bit of devil's advocate on the what if we try to pull her through, then talked with the pulmonologist physician assistant and asked for confirmation of her prognosis. The answer was she has a poor prognosis. We'll talk with the cardiologist somewhere between 12 and 1 but I'm 99.9% sure that we'll be having the defibrillator turned off and the breathing tube pulled. She is on pain medication drip but more on the mild side so it shouldn't be affecting her responses. However her responses have been essentially zero. She is peacefully resting and not moving really at all. Once the breathing tube gets pulled it could be fairly quick because she is somewhat dependant on it, not completely but it is kicking in to help her breath.
