Jim's Journey - Day 48 post transplant April 17

Guy, Jim's newest hire stops by this morning to give Jim a full deep tissue message. Jim says it feels both good and extremely painful at the same time. Guy is amazed at the amount of stress on Jim's muscles. Instead of the original 1/2 appointment, Guy actually worked on Jim's legs for an hour plus. He cautions Jim to stay off his feet for several hours today so the work he did gets a chance to relax and revitalize the muscles. Jim naps off and on until about 3:30pm. He states that his legs feel amazing. Off to work on the lawn mower with Norm.

About 7:00 Jim hobbles in, extremely worn out. He has been working on the lawn mower since 4:00, without a break, and has overdone it a little. Norm stays for dinner and we have a good conversation. Jim is very relaxed and animated. It is nice to see he is feeling very good.
