Ok so I got the news from the doctor that the fluid around Rhett's right lung has decreased which is great! Knowing that I asked about the hazy stuff they could see in the right lung and the doctor said that the hazy stuff that they saw on the x-rays were pockets in his lung that were still collapsed. SERIOUSLY! Apparently he doesn't have enough negative pressure to inflate it all the way. So now I have to figure out a how to get his lung inflated again. I was also told that I need to take him in and find out from the pulmonologist and get his opinion on what to do. So it looks like he has never gotten it up and working since the collapse from after surgery.
Gosh I guess I can say that this really sucks. But I guess I can handle it right, or maybe He has too much faith in my abilities. Not having a good time right now with all this drama but most of it is emotional drama. Not sure how to juggle all of this on top of everything else.

So sorry, Andrea. That's so frustrating. You're stronger than you think, you're still hanging in there, which in my opinion is a lot. I used to tell people who thought I was strong that you do what you have to for your kids, it's not strength, it's that you have no other choice. But sometimes even that isn't enough, sometimes it does come down to strength when you've lost it all, regardless of what you "have" to do. Hang in there, you're in my thoughts.
Emotional stress is the worst. I'll be gone for the next few weeks, BUT PLEASE think of me when you a shoulder or a break (not an emotional break - hehe - a physical break. Pedicure? But give me two weeks until I get back.
