Second chest tube in, procedure went well. Surgeon explained that it is too soon to tell whether the lung is going to completely recover and re-inflate. She said it is possible that he may not get complete restoration of his left lung and we will cross that bridge when we get there.
We're back in the room and he is pretty loopy. Right now, we're dealing with one of the side effects of the pain meds; it slows your system down and nothing comes out. It's always something.
Good news is that his pain is managed and hopefully he will sleep better tonight. Tomorrow will tell a lot.
Thanks again for all the love and prayers.
