Moving forward

John was sitting in a chair when I got to the hospital today. He looked exhausted. They still hadn't drained him. Fortunately, one of the internal med doctors tapped him bedside in the afternoon and drained almost 5 litres of fluid. After that, he fell into a sound sleep. It looks like he'll be released in a day or two to a skilled care facility for rehab. Working with the social worker on that one. So that is good news. He can't wait to get out of there, but will be getting physical and occupational therapy to get his strength back. He'll undergo the rest of the tests for transplant evaluation soon. Praying he'll get on the list!
