Jeff got his first real shower today since Jan. 3. With the help of a shower gurney (aka Shamu), he got to use his fancy shampoo and his phoofy body wash. Pretty boy!
More importantly, the trach is gone! Jeff is completely breathing on his own. In addition, most of his congestion and cough has subsided along with it.
Yesterday, he donned one of his Fox shirts for the first time, too, complemented by the famous cargo shorts.
He is enjoying the physical therapy and occupational therapy exercises and is in good spirits. All the hard work is tiring, so he has been getting some healthy naps.
Food is good and the Arnold Palmers are flowing.
Amanda has also gotten some good sleep the last couple of nights. Jeff has no roommate, so she gets the other bed.
They seem to be settling in to the new digs and working hard to learn the ropes.
Enjoying our first trip to Lake Martinez, AZ "the river". Good times! Finding our new normal.
Good news about getting that trach gone.! We are pulling for you Jeff and Amanda. Love ya
