The surgery went as expected with no major complications.
Today was a bit rough though. As Nana was taken off of oxygen, one of her lungs collapsed. The Dr's fixed her up quickly by putting in a chest tube. When we saw her after that she was doing well (no pain). The Sprout had fun kicking a blown up rubber glove up and down the hallway of the observation unit. (sorry nurses- the other patients and I got a good laugh though! That Grandpa of ours always gets us into trouble!)
Later (about 10 pm) we got a call from the nurse to tell us that it looks like Nana needs a little bit more help breathing so they are going to move her back to ICU and they might have to put her back on the ventalator for a while. Just until she gets a little stronger. I am off to be with Yoda and Nana at the hospital. Will keep you all posted.

Oh, I'm so sorry to hear about your mom. I'll be sending positive thoughts your way.
Very best wishes for Nana and your family! Take care of yourself too!
Chantelle,
Just wanted to let you know that we are keeping all of you in our thoughts at this time. Please let me know if you need anything.

Sorry to hear about your mom. Is she at RUH? I have a good friend who works in ICU there--in fact she's working a night tonight (not sure if it's in ICU). Her name is Darcie--if you see her, tell her I said she needs to take extra care of Nana--tammi said so!
My thoughts and prayers are with Nana and your family Sassy. Take care.
