Here is this mornings update <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">
<i>We are on Day 7 post transplant. Garran is doing so well! Today the surgeons came in and said that after the bronchoscopy tomorrow morning they will look at taking the final two chest tubes out. If they cant get to it tomorrow then they will take them out Wednesday. And possibly by Friday he could be going home!
Yesterday he had a visit from some college students who were going around the ward dancing for the patients. He saw them as we did his second walk yesterday, and they were in the hall dancing for another patient. So, Garran being Garran, stopped in the middle of the hall and asked them to dance right there for him...lol...He was so happy. He said "Mom they made my day!"
Of coarse he also asked them for their autograph, and phone numbers. He was beeming with joy as they danced a second time just for him outside his room. And then he made them a valentines card. He talked about it all day.
Sicne he has been allowed to have his siblings to visit, he has had such a good outlook, and the depression that he was having in the PICU is not prevalent. They have always made him feel so much better when he is sick. Even if they are fighting, he has more spunk and joy when they are there.
Anyway, I will update when and if things change.</i>
