Hi everyone,

So I think I have Reggie's feeding and hydration under control now. He seems to be tolerating all very well now and am able to keep up with the standard 2500 + 48 oz. protocol.

I now have a new concern. Today he is 2 weeks out of the hospital and 23 days post op. I can't get him out of the recliner. He gets up in the morning around 6:30 am and moves to his recliner where he spends the majority of the day sleeping. I understand that Reg is 66 and had major heart surgery just 61/2 mos. ago., but I am trying very hard to get him to get up and move and walk and shower, etc. It's very frustrating that I can't.

2 yrs. ago I had a liver transplant and I made myself move and walk and get back to a normal routine even though it hurt and I didn't want to. I wish Reg had my fortitude. What am I to do????
