Gonzalez's Heart

Jaden is stable and looks really good. He is asleep and they will extibate him as soon as he comes to a little more.

Sal and I were about to go in to see him and the nurse stopped us and said we had to wait a little longer. She had said one of his lungs had collapsed a little and they needed to put in another chest tube to help release the pressure from the air that had collected around his lung. They said this should not be a problem and the chest tube will solve the problem. Having to go in after the surgery to add a chest tube does not make it any easier on any of us.

He is a trooper and is super duper CUTE!!!

Steph,
I'm so glad this step is finally behind you. I pray Jaden's recovery is quick so that you can go home soon. I'll also pray for your quick return to good health.
Take care,
Sara

We are also hoping that no news is good news! Hopefully you were able to get some rest last-night and know that now you are one step closer to being done with the surgeries. Spend some time with your little cutie today!

Sorry I couldn't get my posts to work yesterday. I left a comment after each post but there was something wrong with blogger and I had downloaded the update. I thought about you all day and hoped all was well.

Take care.
Love,
Krista
