Yeah the doctors had hoped that his body could recuperate after the first transplant when they found out that the lungs had holes and other issues with them. Well his body struggled along as it was never getting ahead. They had one chance here as he was nearing not being able to sustain life on the first set of lungs. They took the chance. He was up walking and talking off of almost everything, breathing on his own. Then the fungus showed up and within days the doctors couldn't do anything about it.
The fungus was something that was dormant in the lungs until they got transplanted and his immune system saw this fungus and tried to fight against it but could not.

Dan fought through it and kept his head up being positive for his family and friends. Although he will be missed by a lot of people. I am glad that he is not struggling anymore.
