Day 3 - April 13

Today she was up in the chair again eating normal hospital food if you call hospital food normal.  Before lunch they removed 2 out of the 3 chest tubes which was cool to watch (yes I am weird) and is a big deal.  The doctors are still very pleased that she keeps improving at the rate that she is.

Her bowel is starting to wake up and causing some pain but that will get better with time and things passing.  She continues to have very little pain from the chest except when she is moved.  She is self medicating and she only pushes 'the button' when they need to move her.  It really has been great having the kids here.  They keep me company and Margaret likes having them here also although they keep me up way to late at night but it is good.

They are talking about moving her out of ICU in a few days and maybe discharge early to mid next week.
