Torres baby off ventilator and eating on her own!

From LifeNews...

Susan Torres is doing well following her internationally followed birth last week months after her mother's collapse. The Torres family released a statement Monday saying Susan no longer requires artificial help to breath and is being fed without medical assistance.

"Little Susan is doing extremely well," the statement read. "She has been removed from the ventilator and is being fed formula from an eyedropper."

"She is strong and alert, and is doing better than any of us could have hoped," the family added.

Doctors at Virginia Hospital Center in Arlington said the prognosis is very good following baby Susan's birth two days ago. She was born two months premature and weighed less than two pounds.
