At about 3:00 pm one of the surgeons came in to remove Mason's pacer wires and his last chest tube. Great news for us! The drainage from the Chylo will be monitored to determine if there continues to be any build up in his chest cavity. They already took an x-ray and will take another in the morning. I imagine there will be several others before we leave. Currently, they are in the room preparing to do an echo cardiogram of little Mason's heart. I will have the chance to view all his new plumbing.
We will be trying another feed by mouth at approximately 5:00 pm. I'm looking forward to seeing if he can do it again.
Oh, and another big thing-his cord fell off today! Big firsts all around.

Rosie, Just maybe this response will go through. I guess I had to sign up for a google account. Meanwhile I have been sending you comments and they have been going nowhere. Anyway, Mason is gorgeous. His color is perfect and so is he. He truely is an Angel from God. What a fighter, I think he wants to come home and meet his brothers and sister. This website is awesome and each day is a new journey. We love you very much and prayers to you both. Love Marsie and Billy too
Thank you guys so much for having faith in him and always keeping him in your prayers. We are so lucky to have you as such good friends.
With love,
Mason & Mommy
