I just spoke with Tubes and he's feeling a little better after surgery yesterday. They created a "window" in the membrane surrounding the heart to drain 1 1/2 GALLONS of fluid!  So he's breathing easier and hopes to get the drain out tomorrow. Hopefully he will be out of the hospital in a couple of days. They plan to have him up and walking some today.  Hang in their Tubes my friend!  |

Thanks Okarol. Beth got a call from him today, but as she was answering-the call was dropped. He is all we have been talking about the past two days. Tubes, we want you well. We have big plans for Vegas so please take care and heal. We love you, sweet boy! We will keep checking on you and saying lots of prayers! |
