Well today Mark is doing well. Last night at around nine, he was able to drink a little water and have a cherry Popsicle. At 12:00am he had another one. (it might not seem wonderful to you but, normally it takes children a few days to start eating and drinking things). It was just amazing that he started doing this. At 3am Mark was still awake and he had an x-ray and expelled the last Popsicle orally. He developed a little fever and with the help of Tylenol it was disappeared completely. He took a nap at 4:30am to 6:30am and very carefully told his cardiologist "No, No Do not touch me". Later he was examined and was told that he was doing fine. He will get one of the chest tubes removed tomorrow, some of the hard wiring, and will be allowed to sit up in a chair. He is being allowed to eat if he would like, and he will be on a low-fat diet for a month following. Lets keep praying for a speedy recovery!
