Chace had his breathing tube removed around 9:30 this morning.  He says it's still a little hard to breathe, but the nurses said his airways sound good, his lungs are strong and he's getting enough oxygen.  It will just take a little time for him to gain strength and feel comfortable with breathing on his own, it's been almost a full week that the machine has been doing it for him.

He also asked for a wheelchair this morning, which the nurse said was a very good sign that he feels well enough.  They may try to get him in one later today so that he can get out of bed.
