Hi ,
It is now almost 11 o'clock and I didn't want to write but here it is.
Quiet morning Chris got to sleep in until I woke him so we could get washed and shaved before the pool. The pool session was great as the rec therapist is now getting more involved as she sees the movement and sounds Chris makes when in the water so instead of her only staying in for a half hour she stayed the whole hour and it worked out perfect for Chris.
They have hot showers on deck so upon leaving the pool you can shampoo and shower the chlorine and crap off before going to get changed.
Got back to his unit and proceeded to have lunch and sleep while eating then that crazy cough of his started and kept him up and awake all of the lunch time and then left him wiped out for the afternoon therapies, Oh well being tired from working out can not be all bad.
Chris and I managed to stay awake for most of the Pittsburgh game. When he fell asleep during the second period I stayed and watch the overtime then drove back to Edmonton.
Another pool session in the morning so better sign off and get some sleep as I will have to be down there early.
Till tomorrow good night.
Kevin

Slowly but surely, the aqua-therapy is coming together. Now if the Rec Therapist can convince the O.T., and so on, and so on, they might be able to enlist a helper when you are not there, so they can continue this part of Chris' treatment....!???
The better game is on tonight; Go Canucks !! - 6:00 your time; so both of you try and stay awake for this one. And yes - what Helen says: "drive carefully, after your long and busy days. Bye for now; thanks for the Update.
(Bob & I dessimated the black team this a.m.; hope to see you home for a few days, soon.
Big hugs for Dr.Bigelow.
Love, Pat, Janet, Carl & Julie.
Thanks again Kev for keeping us updated. If you're unable to post for awhile we do understand. Like to know you're taking care of yourself too! Sounds like water therapy keeps getting better - glad to hear it. I know how hard Chris works during those sessions. Please let him know we're thinking of him and sending our love and encouragement.
