John Baker Update

Today has been a busy day for John, He had another ultrasound early this morning, then Physical therapy for his arm.  Neurology came to look at his arm. He also got up and sat in a chair for 40 minutes. It was quite an effort  but he did well. They moved him to a bed that will go with him when he leaves ICU. He is still unable to eat, but it shouldn't be much longer before he can start having clear liquids. His blood counts remain low, but not signigicantly lower than this morning. The surgeon says the blood loss is to be expected with this type of surgery. Please feel free to send comments, John would like to hear from you. Thank you.
