One less tube

The intubation tube came out about about 9:30.  Turning down the vent was one of the scariest moments I have ever witnessed in my life.  The trick is to get the lungs to function again without the blood pressure rising.  If the pressure rises the graphs blow and that's it....
Tedious work..and thank goodness David the nurse was there to reassure me.  I've seen enough of that thank you very much.
Hallelujah the vent tube is out, and the breathing has resumed.  Which also means that the talking has resumed.  Which means all I hear is I'M IN SO MUCH PAIN.
After witnessing all of that I have decided to stay until I feel like he is more stable.
I have to tell you....today I have seen goodness...and I have been pushed to the brink of my limits.  Without my faith, my family and my friends I would not be able to walk this journey.  So thank you to each one of for praying and encoraging us to keep fighting to break out of here!
