One chest tube out and pink fingernails

One chest tube down, one to go. They pulled one of Mason's last two chest tubes yesterday. Ironically his draining has picked back up so it doesn't look like they will be pulling the other one anytime soon. Or at least not today or tomorrow. His O2 levels look great, however, which is awesome. That can be seen in his pink fingernails. Yes pink fingernails! One thing kids with Mason's condition have is lower O2 levels and with each surgery those levels get a little better and closer to normal. Right now he sitting in the 90 to 92% range. Never has he been that high before and it is good to see a 9 in that first number. Okay back to the wild man. He says bye.
