Gabe had a good night and the doctors say things are still going well. He has some fluid on the right lung today, but they think it will resolve itself.
When I got here, Gabe was somewhat sitting up (with the help on many pillows) in his bed. His color and everything look great today. He was able to have a sippy cup of water, which he took down. Luckily, he kept it down as well. He may get to have some milk today which will make him SO happy. They also want to try some food this evening. Our "sentence" here will depend on how things go with food. Cross your fingers and toes!
He is resting right now which is great and he doesn't seem mad at me at all today. I think this could be the day that turns things around. However, the arterial line will stay in until tomorrow. Boo! Which means, I still don't get to hold my Bubby. Hopefully, things will continue to progress and tomorrow, the line goes. Thanks for all of the prayers, things are looking so much better now.
Unfortunately, my parents are headed back up to Mayo today. My dad has a few more tests over the next couple days and hopefully they will have some answers for him. Please include him in your prayers. They have been a great relief this week because both would come up a sit a couple hours a day to relieve us. It will be a little more difficult this week without them, but I am sure we will manage.
We appreciate all of the support and we love the comments on the blog. Hopefully, upcoming blogs will all be this hopeful and positive!!

Praying you can hold that sweet boy tomorrow, for his continued healing, and now for your Dad. You're a brave, strong Mommy!
