So close, we can taste it!

The Dr's just came in this morning (following a "stat" 6:45am xray) and said that things look good. They are waiting for a final report from radiology, and assuming that they concur with his Dr's, we will begin the hospital discharge procedure. There is no visible pneunothorax (collapse) of his lung, although they did say that his left lung remains a bit shy of 100%; due to the stapling that took place near the apex. They did say however that the lung may gain some of that capacity back, as he gets active again and his breathing improves.
If all goes well, we hope to be home this afternoon!

More to follow.
