[quote]He is doing so well!!! Can you believe it?? He looks way better than we expected and even mouthing words. His face is of course very swollen, especially on the left. They took 3 teeth too. His tongue looks good, swollen alot, but pink and the bloodflow to the transplant has been good. He's made some funny jokes and can write too. His left hand already has full mobility. He smiles too, it's mostly in his eyes. His color is excellent.[/quote]
