Getting Better

Sammy is doing well, overall. Her chest tube was removed last night and the doctors say she's doing great. The goal now is to switch her pain control from the epidural to oral medication. Once that works, Sammy will pack her bags and go home. Could be as early as today. We'll see how it goes.

We will keep you posted.
