It worked!

Although he felt worse last night after the lung draining, it seems to have helped. He had to be at work at 4:45 this morning, which means the alarm goes off around 3:30. I'll be the first to admit... that is a little early for me. I can usually lie in bed and in the quiet of the early hour I can hear him breathing as he gets ready. The shortness of breath was pretty prominent. I am happy to say that this morning I couldn't hear him breathing!! (Words I never thought I'd be happy about!) The draining seems to have helped. One small step...

We Got In!

Thankfully, the lung was drained! It was not a pleasant experience for him, very uncomfortable, but it was rather fast, so hopefully he will notice a difference tomorrow. They did say it would seem a little worse, before it feels better, but by morning he should feel a difference. Keeping our fingers crossed!

One thing I forgot when I sent out the link to the blog... please feel free to send it to other people I may have missed.
