The tube is OFF!!!!

AT ABOUT 3:45 they took out the ventilator tube.  Mel was extremely bothered by it.  She is breathing on her own. and so much more comfortable.  Yay!

  2. Sending so much love to Melissa.....from her cousins in Atlanta. We are so glad that the surgery is behind you and that all is going so well thus far. I remember my dad saying that the absolute WORST thing about his open heart surgery was that stupid tube down his throat....so thankful it's OUT!!!! You are an inspiration to us all and we are praying for a swift recovery. Love and hugs to you, David, Jesse, Sam and Paul!
