Wheel Chair

Saturday, September 5, 2009
This is the third day John has sat up in a wheel chair. Each day he has tolerated it better with less of a drop in his blood pressure and stayed up for a longer period of time. His chair is specially adjusted for him and is his alone for as long as he is in VGH. So far he hasn't made any journeys as he is hooked up to so many things but the occupational therapist told him the next week they would start moving. Right now there is a red N new driver, no moving without an OT sign on the back of his chair. A special friend, Rick, from Powell River visited today and they were setting up a wheel chair race down Burnaby St. when John gets back to PR

  1. Hi John...it's such a joy to read and see pics each day how things are going with/for you! It's an affirmation too, as we who are praying see you going on with each day's details. Can't wait to see you taking on Burnaby St! Love and prayers, and hugs to all.

  2. Hi John,
    I am thinking of you, Laverne and Katie. I know my whole family is also praying for you. Thanks for keeping us up-to-date on your recovery.
