His labs this morning came back better, so I am feeling good about that. Another uneventful night... oh happy day.

we have a fighter
Our surgeon came in last night and told us that Jacob is still on the ledge. He can keep moving forward or fall back really easily. But he feels he is doing good, since he has been stable. Our next 3 hurdles are 1) He needs to pee. That means his body is healing. And once his swelling goes down, than all that excess fluid leaving will help his oxygen stats increase. 2)His chest will be closed. 3) We need to wean him of the respiratory machine. So this is a marathon, not a sprint he says. Time is going to go really slow.
