Wednesday - Mr Fitness

I can't get over how quick things are proceeding. It's an obvious sign of just how much he has improved the past few days.

The tracheotomy has come out completely! He's breathing solely by himself with the help of oxygen (2L) when needed. They've also removed the IV line as well.

The fitness regime is moving full steam ahead. He spent 20mins straight on the exercise bike this morning. If there was any doubt about the lungs it's now been squashed with his lung capacity up to 97%. Just think, pre-transplant he was only getting around 27%, absolutely amazing!

He's starting to do more things for himself. Like getting in and out of bed, eating, walking, showering... all these things that bring back the normality of life. It's great to see.
