Day two. While Steve was heavily sedated and on the ventilator Dr. Ismail wanted to get the feeding tube in. Surgery number 2 was scheduled for 8:15 then moved to 10am and was performed in his room. SUCCESS! This surgery actually only took about 1/2 hour since Steve had been marked on Friday before things went to hell in a hand basket.
We impatiently were waiting for the pulmonary dr to come in and remove the tube. Steve's nurse paged him and he called back after an hour and said he wanted to leave it in another day to make sure there wasn't any swelling.
