We are out of ICU and in a general recovery room (1532). Max is doing very well. In fact, if he continues to progress like he has so far, we could possibly be discharged tomorrow...UNBELIEVABLE!!! We'll be released to the good ole Best Western across the street, where we will wait for his follow-up appointment next week. We are told it will not be until Thursday or after.
The last "not fun" thing to do is remove the drain line from his incision site. He'll get a little morphine before it's removed, so we pray that goes smoothly. Every time anyone in scrubs enters the room he gets extremely upset (that's happening on the hour at this point), but we are able to get in bed and hold him so it makes those moments better for all of us.
Courtney slept in bed with him last night, so I get the privilege tonight. How thankful we are to hold him again!!!
I'll post an update later today and hopefully include some pictures of Max moving around!

That Best Western looks like a castle at this point. How wonderful, we celebrate with you all over the continued healing Max is experiencing.
