This is the "censored" version...

This is the real thing. The red tube coming out of her
neck and wrapping around her body is the ECMO
machine. This is what kept her alive. The tubes out of
her chest are clearing the fluid from the chest
cavity, and the other tubes are a respirator, a million
IV's, and who knows what else...

The yellow dressing on her chest is a biological dressing
used to keep infection out of her still-open chest
cavity. You can see she is bloated from fluid retention.
When this picture was taken, we still did not
know if she would live or not.
