He's requesting food intermittently and the thing that he wanted the most was orange Gatorade. He finished about 3/4ths of that and Tera and Anika are on a mission to find a dinner roll in the cafeteria.
About midnight they are supposed to put his chest tube 'on water seal'. That means it stops bubbling. I don't know how to explain it other than it sounds like a fish aquarium. There are several chambers that measure suction pressure, drain output, etc. One of them connects to the tube in his chest. The other connects to a suction unit on the wall. There are some interconnections.
This is a preliminary step to having the chest tube removed. We were at this stage a couple of days ago. Then in the morning he will get another chest xray.
We are so glad Lars is doing so well! He is an amazing young man. Your family has been in our thoughts and in our prayers. We continue to pray for you and know the Lord will bless your family with the strength you need. We miss your family. Love from MS, the Bath's
