Untubed in time for Olympic trials

Jack is in good spirits today as his last tube will be removed, making him completely unhinged from the machines around him.

He also was able to get up and walk around a few times yesterday, which had to be a happy time for Jack.

Jack told me yesterday that the Transplant Olympics will be in Madison in 2010. He's excited to participate in one form or another, and if he's gets his doctor's go-ahead, he'll be entering for swimming and/or race walking.

  1. Maybe they'll have a 'tightrope walking' WII competition - I've seen him in action and he's GOOD! Love, Amy

  2. Jack! Glad you are thinking Olympian; it is one of the few conquests not yet attained by an Eigel...

    Hope all is well, from one John Christopher Eigel to another.
