@myson, I am very happy for your son! This is fantastic news.
I do not hear from many lung transplants, but it sounds like he is making good progress toward returning to a healthy life. I know that you are proud of him for his strength and his determination. I agree with everything that you have written in your message and I would 'double like' if possible.

How often will he go back to Mayo for bronch procedures?

Thank you for sharing: It is success stories like this that provide Hope and Encouragement for others. Miracles are happening.

There have already been so many bronchs. All tests come back good, which is great. There is an issue with the left "connection" being weak and needing ballooning...which they may have to stent. So, every week a bronch is scheduled but can be deleted as long as his daily spirometer tests stay good. There is so much to do every day -- forever. God bless him. We were so nervous because he began coughing more and just didn't sound good. Turns out to either be medication or most recently this weak connection. So scary.
If there's one recommendation I can make to anyone coming to Jacksonville for a lengthy stay ... Avoid the Mayo Inn. The rooms are filthy. Needs shut down and renovated. The filth is shocking.
