Quick update, Thursday 11:39am

Tony and John are in bed resting and watching "Cars." John just got a dose of oxycodone in preparation for the removal of his "pacer" wires. He will go to the procedure room, but they assure us it is just two little tugs and over. The anxiety and dread will be the worst for John, so we are planning on going with him.

He had a good morning. Tony stayed with him last night and I got there about 7am. Tony left for shower and breakfast, John and I had fun playing with cars, playing Nintendo DS (Smart Boys Toy Club has a great balloon popping game), and reading Berenstein Bears. When Tony got back, I went to breakfast, Mimi and Pa came and they went to the Atrium, a play area where no medical procedures at all take place. They were back in the room by the time I got back, but he (and his chest tube collection chamber) got to the ride in the wagon. I have been assured there were pictures taken.

Here is the link to Granpaparazzi's blog, where there are lots of pictures from the past few days. There is one that is hard to look at, so be warned.

Thanks.

Thanks for the update! While that picture is hard to look at, it reminds me that his progress in the last 48 hours is absolutely remarkable! Does John's room have a mailing address?
