PROGRESS BEING MADE!!!

Lee is making slow progress. They are having to adjust his medicines. He can't take the normal antibotics because he is allergic to penicillin and sulfa drugs. The antibotic that they put him on to prevent pneumonia is making his blood oxygen be low---so they will change that. Also the predisone they give him is making his blood sugar be elevated. So they have started him on oral meds for blood sugar as well as insulin on a sliding scale depending on his blood sugar. His incision is doing well and still draining but has decreased in amount. He took a shower today with a little help from me ( his feet and legs). He is walking around the circle at a slow pace (without a walker or oxygen)!! The surgeon said "perhaps" he can be discharged tomorrow. I will let you know the Homestead Suites address when I get it. God Bless you all!! Keep those prayers going upward. The transplant coordinator told us that when he went back to church he was to come in late and leave early (to avoid crowds). So our life style will be changing at least for 6 months to a year. Rules will change a little after that. We don't want to risk infection or rejection! She also said if he walked into a room and people were coughing for him to turn around and walk out. Please bear with us and keep those prayers agoing!! Thank you for being understanding! Love to each!!
