Woohoo!!!!

Dad's tube came out early this morning and he's doing fine. He's anxious to eat and is currently having a swallow test done to see if he can eat solid foods. Dr. Cahill was here and said his chest sounds good and that seeing him look so good has made her day.

Hopefully he'll be transferred out of the ICU soon and back up to the 5th floor. We're all so grateful for the prayers and encouragement from all of you over these past few days where things were pretty scarry. Your love and concern have carried all of us.

As we I look at my dad, smiling and hopeful, I can't help but get choked up at the gratitude I feel for the donor for the precious gift she has given our family. Life is good!

    You look prety darn good to me for a gentleman who has just been through a lung transplant. Keep up the good work and GO UTES.

  2. You hang in there, Mister. You are needed way too much on this side. Your kids and especially your grandkids need you here not to mention your loving wife. We want to come see you when it is safe for you to have company.
