It's too soon for formal physical therapy. It's very frustrating, but he will
recover. He needs to get more nutrition in him, and he will slowly recover
and gain weight.
He NEEDS TO WALK around. That's the best therapy for this point.
Having a whipple CAN and OFTEN causes depression. Talk to his primary care

changes in his body.
