Moving right along

A big team of doctors has been through today and they are very pleased with Anthony's progress. They removed his foley cathether, central line and a couple IVs. Right now he is still on the pain pump but they are about to take him off of it. He is getting ready to sit up and go for a short walk. The surgeon told him to move around until he starts to feel out of breath to make his lungs work harder. He just finished a smoothie and a bowl of fruit and is looking forward to lunch. He will be transferd to the cardiac floor this afternoon. He still has 3 chest tubes that will hopefully be removed tomorrow.
