Wracking Our Brains

Dr. Mercer said that we should expect that it would take John a full calendar year to catch up to where he was when he went in for surgery. Surgery was November 15th through the night to the 16th and this is just June 25th, a mere 7 months and 10 days later and Mark and I are wracking our brains trying to remember what John could do before he went for transplant that he can't do now. Funny Dr. Mercer's peers seem to think that he tends to be unrealistically optimistic at times, seems to me like they need to give him a break :)
