Hey everyone,
Good day today started with getting familiar with the cycle equipment which Chris spent 40 minutes on and we tried all the different configurations and looks like it is going to be a welcome addition to the workout regime. Snow storms all day today after lunch we went out side in warm sunshine and stood in the snow fall letting it cover our faces and shoulders quite a sensory awakening experience. We had a great session on the tilt table and have worked out a few changes with custom cut foam supports and Auntie Helen's head band. I will be cutting a custom arm support out of wood in their shop tomorrow and getting it to fit properly so it will support his upper body. Had talk with Dr Gray re: some other drugs that were recommended by some of the docs Chris worked with and Dr. Gray is willing to give it a try. The pool thing I think is now going to work out as I ended up talking to the head of the Unit and she is happy with my ability to handle Chris in the water, so it looks like I can get in when ever open pool time permits. I left him asleep with the game on and having dinner a bit late, but he was completely wiped out with activity today. So we look forward to another day the same tomorrow.
Good Night
Kevin

Things are definitely back to moving in the right direction, in Ponoka.! Good on Dr.Gray for being so receptive; good job Kev, and keep up the good work, Christopher.!!
Congrats on your Grandaughter / Niece, Gwen Portia Anne Bigelow Bradshaw.!
Sounds like a great day for Christopher, we sure wish we could be there to see him working with all the equipment. Wow, what a change from Surrey !!!
Give Christopher a hug and a kiss for us and tell him to keep up the good work.
Lots of Love
Janet,Pat, Carl and Julie
Congratulations on the new little girl...wuch a beautiful and long name? Glad to hear things are moving forward there, I am happy that you are finding more of what you need and want at the rehab centre. Sounds like it's a great facility for Chris, Surrey being a general hospital just wasn't able to give you these same options. Too bad really that GF Strong wouldn't take him so he could have had the same type of care but closer to all of you. Would love to see some pictures of him on the bike or in the pool there. I love the updates...everyone on N51 is always asking me how you all are doing out there so it's nice to give them the current updates.
Oops I didn't mean to have a ? after the name of Shelley's baby...I originally had asked what the name was, then saw the name and changed my comment but not the punctuation...I really do love the names.
