Update 18

Dr Mahadeo just came in to give us the run down of his status. He is very pleased overall about the healing of the surgery and the setting of the plate in his neck. He is also happy that he has mobility in his left leg and some in his right, though at the moment his right leg is not useable at all. His right arm is still a concern but the fact that he has feeling and some slight movement is very promising. Jim and I have already had lengthy discussions about the merits of having a robot arm with interchangeable attachments; hook, clamp, disk, swizzle stick….the possibilities are truly endless. In fact even when he does regain full use of his arm (and he will) I think he should still have one installed anyway because it would look pretty cool. Again, I am not a doctor.

There will be lots of rehabilitation and physiotherapy required and quite a long road ahead. If anyone is able to recommend a physiotherapist that will  a) be able to come do home visits and  b) be able to tolerate extended amounts of daily shit talks. Please forward us some recommendations to either trudycraig@hotmail.com or tracycraig@gmail.com

  1. I am SO HAPPY that he is doing so well. Tracy, THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart for making this blog, it’s brilliant to be able to check in every day and stay up to date with the situation. BIG HUGS AND LOVE AND KISSES AND GOOD VIBES! P.S. I would like to add that granny June and I did a good vibes dance slash prayer together (rain dance style) for Jim during his operation via FaceTime. It was special.
