14 inches of tube. That's right FOURTEEN were pulled out of my poor little wife's chest. It was one of the craziest things I have ever seen. Now she is breathing easier than ever. She told the nurse practitioner that the most painful thing about heart surgery is having the drainage tubes taken out. The nurse said that most patients say the same thing. Dr. Woo's nurse practitioner Leigh had a much better technique for pulling them out than the nurse from yesterday. She is the bomb! Shannon wanted to give her a trophy.
We have been moved to a private room tonight so she should rest better than ever. There is a good chance we will be going home tomorrow. -Jeff

What a great Christmas present, to breath easy. I am so excited that things are going so well.
Love,
