Update on Lee

We are finally settled in @ Duke Tower Condos...not affiliated with Duke Hosp.  To see our new home check out http://www.duketower.com/ and take a virtual tour of the premium condo. We are close to the pool and the courtyard is quite lovely with flowers and places to sit outside under the trees.  At night the trees are bright with little sparkling lights.  We have 24/7 free shuttle service and maid service once weekly.

Good news!  Today Lee began his first rehab session which was an evaluation to determine how long he would need to stay in the six week program. After working him for an hour an half, it was determined that he was strong enough to move to the next level.  He had moved ahead six weeks in one hour!  Tomorrow he will be entering the next phase which is rehab four hours a day, five days a week.  He will be asked to work very hard, but he will be given adequate oxygen and will be monitored closely.  We are very excited about this.  We will both be attending educational sessions each week.  Lee will go every day for an hour and I will be attending sessions each Wednesday and a couple other days.  We will be very busy and probably very tired!

I will not be able to stay with Lee during the rehab and this will free me to do some other things ( like maybe enjoy the pool and shop!)

Please continue to keep us in your prayers.  We are confident now that we will be closer to Lee getting new lungs.
