Day 9 afternoon

Another good day. A few minor issues--his ankles and legs are
significantly swollen so they gave him "old lady stockings" and put
him on a diuretic. Temporary diabetes is commonly seen with steroid
treatment and should resolve as the steroids are decreased. He was not
too pleased with his first meals of supposed solid food cuz somebody
goofed and ordered thick liquids. Pudding and grits were not on the
top of his list.

We met with the transplant nurse for pre-discharge discussion (#2 of
2). And Justin and I got moved into the apt. So we are getting closer
to discharge. That is it for now.

    Heya Chris!
    We're so proud and amazed by your strength, (we all think that this is better than Christmas!) and we wanted to let you know our hopes and prayers are with you.
    Kris and Jon want to know if you saw the amazing header by Germany to win their match against Austrailia in the World Cup. Get better so we can go out and kick with you sometime!
    Love, the Kolvereids
    P.S. Ellie likes pie and says that you are one of her favorite-est cousins.
    P.P.S. Jon wants to say that he can't wait to hear you laugh again.
