Mitch's xray looked good so Mitch had the breathing tube removed (much to his pleasure) at 1030am, which according to the docs was very soon. He is in a lot of pain because they did have to break his sternum and put him on the heart/lung bypass machine for 2 hours during his surgery.
He is doing well though, the surgeon and docs agree.
They want to get him up in a chair later.
It is amazing to see him take deep full breaths on his own!!! Remarkable.

Walking comes next, later today or maybe tomorrow. Then the fun begins. Don't worry about the sternum. Mine's still a little out of place. You'll get used to it.
