Another long wait with no answers

Hi,

Good Thursday afternoon, Chris has had a wonderful day started out in bed with full stretching routine this morning, then an hour later into the pool for an excellent stretch and sitting session, followed by 30 minute relaxation session in the pool. It was great today we had the pool all to ourselves and the music soothed the whole time.

Out of the water quick change and onto the tilt table for some squats, with Chris really applying himself this morning using some great muscle to move in his squats, then a standing session with some great motor work from the arm and neck, followed with trunk stretches then chest physio.

Chris even helped the unit try out a new pool chair they are buying to make trips for all easier to use, guess it was fitting as he is the one who uses the pool the most.

Still no word on any extension or from
Fraser Health regarding funding to make their demands come true. We will wait patiently as we always do, expecting all is well and they are just crossing t's and dotting i's.

Will let you know as soon as it happens.

Thanks all for the support and wishes,

Kevin & Christopher

Dear Kevin,

I sat down today with my morning cup of coffee to read the daily Red Deer Advocate online news. I quickly became absorbed in reading your story and blog. I was very touched by the relationship that you have with your son and your overwhelming love and dedication to him.

Your situation left me pondering what I might be able to do to help. I recognize your lack of support being so far away from family and friends and the fatigue you contend with as primary caregiver. Although your stay in Ponoka may be coming to an end, I want to offer you some of my time. If you have any need for a volunteer (maybe to read to Christopher?) please feel free to email me at freedom33@shaw.ca I would be happy to give a small part in helping you along this journey.
