Coming Home!

Well, it looks like Aaron is coming home in about an hour!  He'll be released at noon today.  He's been making excellent progress, so they're sending him home.  Aaron will have an oxygen tank, as he still needs that for a little bit.  They tried taking his oxygen down yesterday and his saturation level went from 95% to 75% and he nearly passed out.  So, as long as he has the tank he should be fine.  That's really incredible progress.  He was originally expected to stay in the hospital for a week, but he'll be coming home 76 hours after they cracked his chest open.  Not too shabby.  By the time I get this published, Aaron and his big heart will be home.  Go Aaron!

  1. What a crazy drama all of this has been. Thanks for posting all of this for us to keep up (or in my case catch up) on what has been happening. I haven't seen Aaron in a couple of years but still consider him a good friend. It's scary to think how easily everything could have gone wrong. So glad he's doing well.
