I'm so glad to hear he's finally gotten up and going! Like Logan said, when my mom had quintuple (?)(5) bypass surgery, they had her actually sitting in a chair that night and up and walking the very next day! I was amazed at how quickly they got her up, but they said it was best for the patient. However, the nurses would NOT take no for an answer. They MADE her get up and get going - which it sounds like Andy's nurses are not doing. My mom's surgery was over 10 years ago now, so maybe the staffing situation has become worse in those 10 years - meaning maybe the nursing staff is understaffed more now as compared to 10 years ago and they just don't have the time to spend with him.

Anyway, glad to hear he's at least been up and about a little bit.
