The Tube is OUT!!!!

The doctor finally came in yesterday and pulled Lisa's last chest tube!! He also informed her that she now holds the record for most surgeries to repair chest tube issues. Not exactly the record she was hoping for, but she's definitely left her mark.
After her chest tube came out, Lisa even felt inspired to do a little art therapy. Her spirits were lifted and she now is looking forward to getting out and starting her therapy. We anticipate that she will be released soon!!
