Today they had to put another tube into Teagan's chest to drain some blood that was around his right lung. They said it drained 45-50 cc's of blood in the 1st hour and since then it has slowed down to 4-5 cc's per hour. They said he is doing well, this is not uncommon after a big surgery. Getting this blood out has helped his breathing a ton, he should be off the ventilator sometime tomorrow. They sent us this picture from the cell phone, you can't tell but his eyes are open. His left hand is wrapped so he can't grab tubes, we were excited to get a pic, he looks great!

Glad to hear an update! Keep fighting little Teagan. You have so many that love you and are praying for you. I would have to say....considering he does look great! Looks like he has been able to put on a little weight too? Or maybe the cell phone is adding a few ounces ;-)
