I don't know when I am coming home yet but the chest tube is the hold up...the CT scan earlier showed a reduction in fluid but also a pocket of trapped fluid. They got on the ball and talked to the team that has put in my four other drains about aspirating the fluid using a tube that would be taken out at end of procedure...seemed successful and now I just need to keep breathing deeply to claim that pleural space between lungs and chest cavity...baby steps, baby steps...going to go for a walk tonight again...going on New antibiotic that can br given in pill form when I leave..woohoo! Could still be deeply on meds so excuse my typos...
Love you all and want to see everyone sometime next week...
