Firstly, sorry for not having updated, i'm not as diligent as Tor.
Tor is doing well and making steady progress. She has been moved from ITU to the main transplant ward, and is being given intensive treatment and rehabilitation. There have been a number of ups and downs, wobbles and tears, and smiles as she sees the sun start to peek through the clouds.
Although still on oxygen and with a tracheotomy in, today Tor walked from her room to the ward doors- a massive achievement just four weeks after such major surgery. Note the enormous smile on her face- i don't think it will be long until she's making a run for it!

  3. I'm only a Twitter follower and it's been so good to read about her progress. I think you said in one post Tor that you struggled 20 steps to the bathroom. Now look how well you are doing on the comeback. Many best wishes to you and thanks to all those that have kept us up to date with Tor's progress.
