Daily Highs:
Mitch moved OUT of ICU into the step-down unit to recuperate!!!!
He also had his bladder catheter out and is now sporting boxer briefs, therefore feeling more human!!!
Lungs functioning well...O2 Saturation higher and heart rate and blood pressure lower today. Body adjusting!!!!
2 good walks!

Much better day, respectively.
Daily Lows:
Still uncomfortable with the chest tubes, yet headache better. Eating clears, digestion working.
Upcoming Plans: Docs doing a lung bronchoscopy, probably Wednesday. (going into new lungs and taking culture and samples to check out the body's response to new lungs, check for rejection, etc.)
Maybe getting 1-2 out of 4 of the chest tubes out soon?
