The Pleurx was installed yesterday. We asked the nurse to make sure Ma doesn't feel any pain from the procedure, and she didn't. Afterwards, the PA removed Ma's second chest tube. She felt some pain despite the morphine, but Darvocet took care of it.
This morning the nurses showed Pa how to drain Ma's catheter. They did it too early, before I arrived at the hospital, but I have a DVD and instruction manual on how to do it.
Ma is going home today. We've started packing and are just waiting for the discharge papers.
