I cant even imagine what it is like for you waiting for your husband to return to his old self. It must be awful watching him go thru the treatments then pnuemonia and now at 3 months post tx he still isnt better. It could be a long time before he bounces back. I hope he steadily improves to get close to how he was before. Best wishes with everything.
