John has had lots of doctors come to see him today.  Dr Masri, his cardiologist dropped in and told us how pleased she was that John finally got his new heart.  Dr Hussin came in and did an echo.  He indicated that the left side was now working perfectly, and for some reason the right side usually takes a couple of days after transplant to get up to par.  Right now, he is taking a 30 minute breathing test to make sure he can breathe by himself without the ventilator.  When that is successful they will remove the breathing tube and he can have ice chips!  Yeah, he loves his ice

Thank you for all the wonderful comments you have been leaving for him.  I'm reading them to him and he responds favorable.

I am so glad to hear that everything is going well! You have had a lot of prayers heading your way from over here in Idaho, and we are all so happy to hear about your progress. I sent out a prayer request to our parish prayer tree yesterday and many people have asked how you are today.

My Daniel (age 7) said "Uncle John got a new heart. I hope it lasts at least 20 years so he can come to my wedding!"
