Remy moved to Southlake Regional Hosp New Market ON

Hi all, Remy was moved earlier this week to Southlake Regional Hospital in New Market ON.  Kerry reports back that they were well received and that Remy is setup quite nicely.  Also, the staff and programs that they have available for Remy are really good and we remain quite impressed.  Remy has shown some improvements lately that we are so happy and impressed by.  He actually wrote his name and "mom" on a piece of paper.  His handwriting hasn't improved much but we'll give him a pass on that as he'll have lot's of time to work on it.  He can actually communicate using his thumb to signal.  We're pretty sure he can see but we're not sure how much detail there is for him.  He is quite active so if you go to visit you can't take your eyes off him as he may accidentally kick you.  He's a tall man and his legs are going non-stop an occasionally they go over the bumper boards.

They have a good plan and program for him including speech therapy, when he's ready, and also physio and occupational therapy. 

A big thank-you goes out to his mom Kerry, for staying by his side 24/7 since the accident and helping with his recovery and making sure he's getting the best treatment and the attention that he needs.

I also want to thank  all of Remy's family and friends for the wonderful support, well wishes, and for visiting Remy and keeping him in your prayers.  Big shout out goes to Remy's friend Alex, and the Swisha Team.

Here's Remy giving a "thumbs up", wearing the army hat I got him.  It's a bit big for him but I already have a couple of replacement ones that should fit better.  He'll be able to using when he goes camping and fishing.


Oh yeah, when visiting Remy, be sure and give the Hosp a call to find out what room he's in and the visiting hours etc.  Kindly keep the noise down too when in the room as sometimes it agitates him.

Peace and Love, Ciao Rej
