HT, Here We Come!!
The numbers for Jackson's chest tube were right on this am, but we had to wait on his surgeon's approval. Once again we played the waiting game. He finally came around about 1:30pm and said to pull it. He went ahead and pulled it while he was there. We took Jackson back to the treatment room (where they do all procedures) which he screamed the whole way! He pulled it without any pain med or sedation and Jackson was back in his room within 5min. Jackson has been WIDE OPEN ever since! After an ECHO and chest XRAY. We got word to head to the house. After getting all of his medicines, etc. we got home about 10:30pm tonight. Needless to say, but no pics for tonight. The bed is calling our name!!!

Wow! What a recovery! That is truly a blessing for you and Jackson. I am so happy for you guys. Please keep us updated on how he does during his recovery at home. Since we are having the same procedure, it's been great following Jackson and knowing what to expect in these days to come.

Now that I have officially gotten the tears to quit flowing. Jackson, I have been in the military for over ten years, and yes have seen many things in those ten years, you man have been through more than I could ever think about having to endure. Combat or not. And to do it with such a smile!!!! WOW Keep your head up and know that the Man upstairs will look out for you in every way possible!
