Chest tubes are still attached to Rob's personage. Vacuum is still sucking. He is still draining. Once that stops happening, he may be able to have some MacGyver'd contraption to allow him to go home until they remove them.
His pneumothorax is still there (that's why they hooked him back up to the vacuum). It takes some time for those to heal.
We are unclear as to how going home will work, since we were told earlier that as long as he has his chest tubes, he will have an epidural to control the pain.
Rob is in great spirits. He seems as happy as a clam (who wouldn't with the amount of drugs - what pain? hehehe). He is ready to get out of here and go home to be with his family. (We would love him to be at home with us, as well.)
The kids came with Elaine after school today to visit Rob. Tarali and the kids raided the 'nutrution room' and found some ice cream. They came back to the room and ate their 'plunder' with their Dad.

hey.... You weren't supposed to find out about that!
Jessica - I can't believe all that Rob has to go through. I can't wait for this ordeal to be over for you. I love your spirit in your e-mails you are always so up and witty.
I asked Virginia to ask you if you would like to be one of the Hostesses for the Arbonne Road Show in Salt Lake City on March 27th, I feel kind of funny asking you while you are at Rob's bedside, but thought you would like the opportunity and know you would be great! I will talk to you about details later.
Wishing you and your family all the best. Miss talking with you once in a while live! Love, Bonnie
