Ben had a very good day today. His morning Bronch was great, showing only a little build up of secretions since yesterday. Things are definitely improving.
Another first today.. his first proper shower post-transplant. Although he complained about the quality of nurses who accompanied him (haha) it's definitely a rewarding effort! One that's left him looking a lot better as well!
Dr Peter Hopkins met with Ben around 5pm tonight. He filled us in on the progress thus far, commenting that the "lungs are no longer collapsing", which is great!!
Overall his spirits are high and like yesterday he is a lot more lively. His sense of humour wasn't left behind either with him constantly having us in fits of laughter with his antics. It's great to see him getting back to his normal self.
The goal is still to get the ventilator tube out as soon as possible and with his current form it looks like this might only be just around the corner. Fingers crossed!
