Did her lung totally collapse? Mine was only about 50 - 75% (at one time) deflated. Since she was in intensive care, it sounds like hers was worse than mine. And the fact that she's in a lot of pain, too. The only pain I really had was at the tube site and before they admitted me there was a little pain in my shoulder when I walked - kinda like a bad gas pain. I'm glad she's doing better. I hope they can get it reinflated without surgery - like I said, that was an excrutiating (and very long) recovery! I'll be thinking of ya'll!
