Ok..so mommy is very nervous because tomorrow is July 4th and since you came on a holiday I am worried. Holidays are gonna make me anxious for a little while. The NICU called us at 1AM this morning to tell us that you had another pneumothorax in your left lung. Mommy and Daddy came straight there to check on you and you were stable. We stayed the night in the courtesy room because we were so worried. This morning you were still stable and we saw your chest x-rays. We need God to heal those lungs and make them strong! Be strong little man. Another chest x-ray this afternoon showed a little air still in the left lung at the bottom. Dr Payne didn't think it was a good idea to mess with it right now, but later this evening they ended up repositioning your chest tube and got rid of the air. You did really well with that and were stable when we left much later. I pray you stay that way. I hope you have a restful night and we will see you in the morning. We love you.
We are praying that Cruz's lungs heal and he stops needing the chest tubes. This little guy is so precious to us.
