One week in recovery

It has been one week since James surgery and he is doing well. We hope that we will be out of here this weekend. He was on oxygen until yesterday and he had his last chest tube removed on Monday. After they removed the second chest tube he became more like himself and started smiling and staying awake more. He is graduating from safe at home today, which is the program we have been in from his homecoming until after the Glen surgery. They have been on an 24 hour call if we needed them, they also check in with us once a week to see his weight and saturations. We had a binder where we logged his weight, his saturation, and his feeds every day. We do not have to do this anymore and that is a big relief. So think about James at 1pm. He is doing his first graduation of some sort then.
