The Rehabilitation Facility is less that 10 minutes away. John has his 2 month follow up appt with Transplant Coordinator and a surgeon yesterday. Doctor is pleased with his heart, lungs, kidneys and liver functions. His only concern is John not eating. He explained to John that it is up to him to eat. John is currently getting his nutrition from the feeding tube hooked up for 18 hrs a day. The doctor would like to see John reduce the time to 12 Hrs and finally off the tube. The doctor says its up to John to eat, maybe start with soft foods, and since John's hands are tremoring, I should help him eat until he is strong enough to feed himself. He has to eat.
John was very alert during his appointments and today he was very active with his occupational and physical therapy sessions. I was there for training to be able to help John when he gets home.
