End of the day update....

Nate did good today. He went for his chest x-ray and to have his stomach checked out. Good news... the chest tube looks to have done it's job. They may clamp it off tonight and have another x-ray tomorrow and hopefully... .maybe, just maybe get his chest tube taken out. I am hoping and praying that this happens. He seems to be so uncomfortable all of the time with the tube. Other great news... his stomach and intestines look great so no worries there. He got his blood transfusion and is now resting comfortably with monkey and bear by his side!! He smiled again today so I am thinking he must surely be feeling better!

Oh Kim, I'm so glad! I know that it is hard for your body to heal without enough of those red blood cells. I wasn't healing at all after a surgery once UNTIL I finally went back and they discovered I needed blood badly. I recovered so quickly after that. I know it's totally different but I hope he continues to improve- and quickly for all of your sakes.
