A third person account by Jude, Jane's husband. A Blog of her recovery from a double lung transplant done at Northwestern Hospital, Chicago.
Entire staff at NWM are amazing. No stone was left un-turned and they spared no effort to provide for her recovery and well being. Not for one moment in the entire recovery did I ever think that she was getting anything less of the best medical care in the world. I applaud the work well done by the Northwestern Hospital Lung transplant team.

white blood cell count is back to normal
Jane is doing ok this morning. She had a bit of nausea again this time right when she started physical therapy. They gave her some extra nausea medicine which knocked her out to sleeping. Slept deep for the next couple of hours. But woke up energized and was able to do her second set of physical therapy just fine. Her ventilator support is down to 40 percent. Also today was the first day since transplant that her white blood cell count is back to normal this means no infections. Doctors now want to really concentrate on getting her up and walking which will boost her breathing abilities too. Thanks for all your prayers!
