Hopkins - Post-Op Day Three - 2

Today's bronchoalveolar lavage was a HUGE success! Trying not to offend anyone's sensibilities but they got some super-sized boogers out of Max's left lungs. I have NEVER been so happy to see mucous in my entire life!

By the afternoon Max's chest x-ray showed incredible improvement, much of the collapsed lung was clear. Obviously Max hates the tube but once he woke up from the massive drugs they gave him for the procedure he looked much, much more like his old self! Example below:

Mr. Max makes a return!

Keep praying and stay tuned......
