Glimmer of Hope

This am Mahaela had a total of 90ml out of her chest tube for the previous 24 hours and a clearer xray. I am tentative, but encouraged. She had very little output throughout today. I am praying that this is officially a slow down in her drainage and not that her chest tube is plugging up again. If she has a good looking xray in the am and still very little drainage out, we may be on the road to fixing this problem and healing. They will then start to wean her off one of her medications and then feed her...all the while hoping that she does not begin to drain again. Praying Hard!!! She walked twice already today, and had much better strength and mobility. After very little sleep at all during the night (and no nap yesterday) and a grumpy attitude in the am, she perked up by mid morning and was happy girl. Thanks for praying and keep it up! Prayers are being answered.
