Time for a Josh update. It's a bit confusing. Not everything has gone well, yet the nurses say he's doing great. I think what seems like giant issues from our side are more like tiny little bumps in an otherwise bumpy road for them. The takeaway is that the doctors and nurses are happy with his progress.
Perhaps the best update came from Josh this morning: "Heyo! So how did all you did do with your transplant surgeries? Mine is feeling pretty breezy." Then in the next post admits the past few days were rough. I think that's only the second time he's posted in the family chat since the surgery, so that's a good sign.
One of his biggest issues so far was he had a lot of gunk in the lung they had to suction out. But he was doing a very poor job relating his current status to the nurses, so they weren't aware. He's accustomed to having gunk in his lungs, so he probably didn't think to complain. After that, the numbers started looking considerably better. He is also coming back to life so to speak as they remove tubes and whatnot. It's know he started with 6 suction tubes around the lungs and that was miserable for him. I think he is down to 2 now.
