Hospital Count Days: 22
With so much excitement going on it was nice to have a day where not much happened. Friday was a day o' watching and waiting. Things were fairly steady most o' the day. But in the evening, my oxygen levels started to get low. So the respiratory doctors tried a few different things to help bring my levels up.

My sister has been so supportive during my stay. She makes the long trip from Grove City to Pittsburgh everyday to see me. Since I was in the ICU now, I didn't think she would be able to bring Caden. But early in the afternoon, a surprise peeked around the curtain.
