Mom and I agreed to
not say much yet, but I'll post the basics here. There has been a
setback, although the doctors and nurses say not to worry. The
chest tube went back in today. There was an air bubble and fluids
in the chest cavity, around the left lung, which kept the lung from
filling completely. Dad said the pain of that tube going back in
was the worst yet, but we know it's for the best. I'm glad this
turned up in the hospital, instead of 26 miles away at home, with Mom
not being a driver. Keep praying, but I know all will work out
fine. He'll be in for a least a few more days, now.

- I have an amazing husband, 4 kids ranging in ages from 21-33, only one of whom still lives at home. We have 2 fat dogs and nothing about us is normal. But normal is boring, right?

So sorry to hear but you're right....he's in the right place. I'll keep all of you close in my prayers.
You remember my car accident, right? I ended up with a chest tube slammed into me. I can commiserate with your Dad... the pain was horrific and no amount of morphine made it any less.... but....after the initial pain....eh...I could deal...(like there was a big choice?) I hope they're giving him plenty of pain meds....

Thanks for the info, Rachel. Will keep praying. So glad he is still in the hospital. That's where he needs to be until he can function on his own.

God is still in charge and I'm still praying.
You're right, the hospital was the best place for this to be discovered. Doctors these days are so very talented. Prayers are coming your way!
