I visited Jim and Diane this afternoon. It was the very first time I EVER saw Jim HEALTHY and alert and sitting up and making jokes and laughing - no tubes, no wires...
He's in the rehab section now, so his new doctor popped in, took a quick look at Jim, stepped out into the hallway and checked the name on the wall, then stepped back in rather incredulous, looking at Jim's chart, and asked "what are you in here for?" Jim answered "liver transplant". The doctor asked "WHEN?" Jim replied "12 days ago". The doctor was stunned. It was obvious he wasn't putting it on... he seemed genuinely stunned that Jim was sitting up in a chair, laughing and telling jokes, and talking about "going to my Church and meeting my new family for the first time".
August 4 is the day Jim is scheduled to be released from the Hospital to go home.
