On Wednesday, Maya’s mom Cia Edmonds posted on Maya’s GoFundMe page that pressure on the 12-year-old’s ventilator had been turned down because she was taking her own breaths.
“Every single day, you show us just how strong, determined, and incredible you truly are. You continue to defy every expectation the doctors and surgeons once prepared us for. We were told we only had hours and yet here you are, still fighting, still with us,” Edmonds wrote.
“You went from not being able to move at all, to moving more and more each day. And now, the nurses have adjusted your ventilator to pressure support because you’re taking your own breaths. What an amazing milestone.”
