We are all at the hospital still, but they moved us to pediatrics and out of the ER. Bobby got more medicine so he's sleeping again. I stole his laptop to write a quick update.

Mom and Bobby have to decide whether or not to do pulmonary surgery in the morning. They will go inside his chest, irritate his chest cavity so that it will harden and cause the lung will stick to it making it less likely to collapse again. They'll also staple all of the weak spots on his lung so that they won't allow air to escape anymore. Even with the surgery there is always a chance this could happen again, but without it, the likelihood is 50/50. The doctors are impatient and are pushing for a decision, but Bobby is scared and doesn't want to do it. We still don't know how long the tubes have to stay in. Mom thinks the surgery is the best option, but doesn't want to pressure him to do it.

It's scary and I hate seeing him in such excruciating pain... I really hope this never happens again.

Last night his blood pressure and heart rate bottomed out and dropped so low and so suddenly that 10 or so doctors and nurses rushed in like you see on TV calling for stats and tubes and all yelling over each other. Mom said it was one of the scariest things she's ever witnessed. Thank goodness they were able to stabilize him!

Anyway, I will update you when I know if we're doing the surgery in the morning or not.
