3rd day post-op

Things are definitely starting to look up for little Muriel.  She lost her right side chest tube this morning, after a night of very little drainage.  The left side is also nearly dry, but will stay for at least another day.  She was awake most of the morning and did a good job eating.  She is talking and seeming more herself.  I've been out of the room most of the day trying to catch up on some work, so am missing some details at the moment.  I'll post again tonight.  Just don't want folks to think we have forgotten them.  Seems quite a few people are following progress this way, and I can't be letting you down!
