The nurse came out and told me that Max had a good night. His lungs did well and everything looks good. He is scheduled for surgery tomorrow. They have taken his arm out of the sling, he has freedom with his other arm. They had to restrain him and I know he's glad he can move it.
I forgot to mention yesterday they gave Max the suction tube to clear out his mouth. The respitorary therapist told him that he would have to build up his muscles and his lungs would clear better as he got stronger. He sits there and coughs and clears his throat. For someone who had a bad gag reflex he is doing amazing. He's already working hard to get out of that bed!
I will let you know as I know through the day. We are just waiting to get in and see how well he's doing!
