Hospital: Day 7

Tuesday, April 12, 2011

You may or may not have heard that Griffin didn't get his chest tubes out today. A little frustrating, however Amber and I have discovered that our timing is not always the best timing. God has the best timing and He knows exactly when Griffin needs to come home.


It sounds like they are going to remove the chest tubes some time tomorrow. They might even start him on the blood thinner tonight. It is hard to get any hopes up because we have thought for the past two days that the tubes were coming out and they haven't. Pray everything moves along smoothly.

As much as I love being with Griffin and helping him out, I am pretty sick of this hospital. Amber and I are eagerly awaiting the day when we can have our family all back together again. Thank you again for all your support and prayers.

Here are a few pictures from the day.

they removed the dressing on his incision today,
you can see his scar.

we have had some great father-son time

probably his favorite thing to do:
play with the remote and push the nurse button

we had a sweet skype session with Amber and the kids before bed

this is how he fell asleep

That's how his Uncle Tony falls asleep as well. Must be a really strong Maltais gene!!
