Our 15th Post, recovery begins.

It's a new day and he is madder then he could ever be. Over the night he slept very well. They were able to take out one of his chest tubes that drain fluid from his lungs. This afternoon they are hoping to take out his RA line which is an IV that goes directly into his heart. As soon as they can get that out he can try to start drinking again. His blood pressure is up and down but we are able to manage that with medicine. He does still have some oxygen running through his nose and he seems to be breathing very easily with that. He still has a drain in for the other lung and a drain for his heart. Not sure when he will be getting that out because he is still drain quit a bit. All in all he looks good. We are just wanting him to rest as much as possible. It's hard for him to do that because his body is already so use to all those pain meds and sidation meds that they don't really work on his for very long. He usually goes thru those meds with in 5 to 10 minutes. I really hope to get pictures up here soon. That is my next thing to do, find a computer and upload pictures. Thank you again everyone for all the prayers and positive thoughts.
Also I was just informed that this blog only send out the updates over night and not everytime I post. Ugh sorry abou that.
