The awesome part was that his oxygen absorption stayed at 95 even under duress! This means that the new lungs are doing their job and its just the body that is tired and that is what physio is all about for the next 2 months. Strengthening those muscles!!
We have the apartment till the end of May and hopefully after that if more time is needed we can drive in from home. I'm sure that Rob will be happy to have us back by then :)

Pete also had a Pulmonary function test done today which measures how well the lungs take in and release air and how well they move gases such as oxygen from the atmosphere into the body's circulation. This was good.
We managed to do a couple of wheelchair excursions outside today and enjoy our beautiful weather. A wonderful treat after being in the hospital for 4 weeks .
Thankful for such a wonderful day!
