The hospital has been doing there best and being very supportive. We have been keeping juicing up from vegies, fruit to coconut water, lemon and rind he is drinking it all. He has been fed chicken liver as Ted advised. The human body is marvelous and amazing how quickly it can respond. All his organs are functioning even though only a third of his heart is working. The doctors will check his blood count today. The hospital has been giving him regularly a special injection that build up his blood and immune, it costs about $1000.00 a time.
I will be flying out from Australia to Auckland, NZ tomorrow to join my sister and mum. What has been a wonderful blessing is that with all the family flying in from all over the globe to see my brother-inlaw there have been many kind acts of support from friends, acquaintances and family. There is food and home cooked meals dropped off daily to feed all of the family, there is round the clock support for my brother inlaw he has some one there with him all the time in hospital, my mum has not had to do any cooking which means she can concentrate on her juicing!

Tania: It may not be as potent as the I.V. nutrition but oral drops of Cellfood would work wonders also. E.C. may not post this as it is a brand so you might wish to search something like cellnutrition or cellfuel. In addition to consuming Liver for anabolic nutrition, try cooked Beef/Bovine Heart if your local grocer has it or maybe the local butcher; this will greatly help rebuild the heart muscle. It would make good in a broth or veggie stew.
If the opportunity arises you will also want to consider the nutrients Carnitine and Ubiquinol as they are completely safe and very effective in restoring energy function to the heart. Many Dr's are also recommending D-Ribose, a simple energy promoting sugar for heart health. Search Dr Titlebaum for his recommends (i think he's got an ihealthtube video).
