Sorry I am slow to post...it has been a stressful day and I finally got an hour alone with Danny and I needed to talk to him. Not for him but for me...

So they put the trach in and everything went fine. They are going to leave him sedated until tomorrow. His lungs are still very congested and the muscles he uses for coughing are not working properly. We still do not know anything more as we really have to wait for his lungs to clear and for him to be stable breathing on his own.

Patience is definitely a virtue. Tomorrow will be a better day.
