    Slight improvement

    W. gradually gets himself up. After more than 4 weeks in the hospital bed, he is looking forward to getting up. He is still very weak and has hardly any appetite. The last cannula to irrigate the chest and abdomen will hopefully be pulled tomorrow. He now needs strength to carry on.

    Confident in rehab

    Now, finally, our grandpa is in rehab again, we hope that he will regain his strength now and that the heart will continue to work without further complications.

    Thanks for the support. But now we have had enough worries in the family.
