Anastasia Fienen Update as of December 2

The hospital is trying to wean Caisla from her sedation medications.  The pressure on her brain has drastically reduced.  Today, she opened her eyes for the first time!  She has also had some movement of her arm.  Amazing!  They still don't know the extent of the brain damage, although the surgeon that removed a portion of her skull told the family that it is extensive.  She is going this afternoon to have a filter implanted in her Vena Cava to catch blood clots that may form due to her immobility.  She developed a secondary infection in her lungs and had some major problems with her Sodium levels, but those don't seem to be too much of a problem anymore.  All in all, things are looking better.  Thanks to all for the prayers and generosity shown to this family!
