Day 4 post-op: another good report!

More good news on Henry's progress today! His heart rate has slowed down to the lower 200s...and his nurse is determined to get him to dip below 200 before she leaves her shift tonight.  Blood pressure and kidney function look good.  They have even been able to take the line out of his head!  Things looked so good last night, that the nurse told David & Dana that they should go home to get some rest overnight.  Much needed! 

So, today is a good day (I'm sure a great birthday present for Aunt Abby in New Mexico).  And we have faith that this trend will continue.  If so, it is possible that they will be able to stitch Henry back up by the middle of the week! 

As always, thank you to all the friends, family, and those that don't even know them for your continued prayers and support for David, Dana, and Henry.  It's working!
