Hello everyone,
Chris was up and on the cycle again for 20 minutes on Friday and was able to keep going. Pretty exhausted so arms only about 10 minutes. Sunday U Larry, U Robert and A Helen will be spending the afternoon with him, going for a walk and talking.
I am driving back home today and will be flying back to Ponoka on Tuesday to continue pool and cycle therapy as well as his usual therapies, will have more updates on progress at that time.
Still struggling with government programs or lack of as well as the ability to come to grips with appropriate house and area! These all take time away from the therapy he really needs it is very frustrating having to make that choice between therapy everyday or taking days to push and argue over things that should just be there when needed.
All the time and research put in to locating equipment and uncovering things that work is that I get to apply them in a way that Chris can benefit as well I can share with so many people in need.
I hope the facility in Ponoka will invest in some of these cycles for the many people they work with everyday.
Talk again on Tuesday,
Thank you,
Kevin

It was awesome to see Chris on the bike on Friday. He was peddling on his own and started to slow down to almost a stop and U Robert talked to him and coaxed him into picking up the pace and he obliged nicely and continued at a good pace. It was really an emotional thing to witness. You are doing terrific Christopher, it was great to go for walks with you and just sit in the sunshine. Can't wait to see you again. Love U Robert & A Helen.
It would be wonderful to see a picture of this bike and even more awesome to see a pic of Chris pedalling the bike. Thankyou for updating the blog with this really exciting news, Helen, and I hope Chris knows he has a huge cheering section for him here at home.
