another good day

Gabriel went for a x-ray this morning to see if they could take his chest tube out. From what the doctor found all was clear. The chest tube came out around 11am. By 12:30 Gabriel was laying in a large wet spot of chylis. Everyone's hearts stopped for a little bit. They placed another bandage on him and have been watching him closely. He is not having any trouble breathing like last time. He has been in pretty good spirits. We have our fingers crossed for his x-ray tomorrow. We are hoping that the chylis that is left is being absorbed and he wont have to have another chest tube.

They are trying to get him into his next echo first thing tomorrow. So around noon.

Tomorrow is the BIG day. We will find out if the Viagra is working and if the chest tube gets to stay out.

Sorry I am going to cut this short. I haven't been able to really hold him in days and hated to set him down to type this.
