Dad update: So please forgive me if I dont explain this exactly right because I find all the information I get a bit confusing. So they think that the leak in lung is self closing and may not have to do the procedure. They are going to clamp the chest tube to to see if the lung inflates by itself. He had to get 2 pints of blood today because all labs were so low Wb, Rb, Hemoglobin and etc. They do believe that is caused by all the antibiotis he is on therefore they stopped all antibiotics for now but will have to find another antibiotic because he still has an infection. If the lungs does well he may get to go to rehab next week. (keep our fingers crossed) On a happier note they were able to take him outside yesterday and today for the first time in 2 months. He said being outside felt really good. Once thank you for all the love, support and prayers.
