So they removed his left and right pleural chest tubes this afternoon as well as his central line. The order is already in for Dr. K to remove his medialstinal chest tube and pacing wires tomorrow morning, followed by an x-ray and echo before DISCHARGE!!!
Can you tell I'm a bit excited!?? I still can hardly believe how amazing he's done. Literally, he had just come out of heart surgery and was still intubated in the ICU at this time last week. And here we are talking about getting him out of here TOMORROW.
God has been so faithful and has heard our many prayers! We have been so blessed to have such a supportive family, amazing friends and a loving church family to help us on our journey with Chase. I cannot say enough to thank each of you who called, sent a card or gift and encouraged me with text messages throughout the last 2 weeks. Truly you were all used by God to help me through this difficult time and I will always be grateful!
Miracles happen here. Trust me.
A trip to the Atrium this morning!
Somebody was really quite happy with his Versed/Oxyxodone cocktail before his tubes were removed.
A post-removal chest x-ray. So cool!
My tired baby boy!
