@stella25, Awesome that he is ready and able to return to work! Have his co-workers seen him since his transplant? I would bet that he is a changed man with his new liver.
Will he have to be around people? In addition to the current Covis-19 safety precautions, will he be making any other physical adjustments to his work place such as his own physical limitations? Will he be able to work a regular schedule or will he be on reduced hours due to possible energy level?
This is exciting!

@rosemarya OMG he looked like a boy when he went into the hospital. He was so thin & yellow, just a shadow of himself. Today he looks like the man he was meant to be!! Some of his coworkers had a surprise social-distance gathering for him in their office parking lot just after Christmas. They had a big basket of gifts for him (blanket, socks, sweatshirt, cocoa, popcorn, etc.). It was so sweet of them. They even had gifts for me & my husband just for taking good care of Dan:-) We have been humbled by the kindness of people. Dan works for a company that manufactures medical equipment. They are currently producing Covid-19 testing kits. It's already a sterile environment so that's a huge plus. He is a quality manager so he will be able to do much of his work at a desk for as long as necessary. It's a good company that he has been with for almost 10 years & is well liked & appreciated. They were super accommodating during his struggles with PSC. I have no doubt they will allow him to ease back into his work schedule. It is exciting! I know he is anxious to get outdoors & do some hiking. Hopefully soon:-)
