Recovery - Day 9

Well, we are still here, still much of the same. Blake is still draining. It's slowing down, but very slowly. Tuesday is now the earliest we could get out of here. Blake's sats continue to go up (ranging between 96-98) and he continues to be in good spirits.

We thought the hospital was slow on a regular weekend, but on a holiday weekend it's practically vacant. We are stir crazy, to say the absolute minimum. We did convince the attending doc to let us wander off the 15th floor, so we went to go see the miniature train village which was a thrilling adventure.

Since there isn't much new news to report, I thought y'all might like a picture of our groundhog day:
