Kyle is still doing well and continues to move. He now found out how to move his bed plus trying to pull himself up by holding on to the railing. He is trying to mouth words now . Garth was doing something yesterday with Kyle and Kyle came up with the left paw and caught Garth on the face and laughed too funny. Take care
As we all know stroke
Hi again everyone
I just checked Kyle's facebook group and there were no new posts. I guess that Mr. Kyle must be all tuckered out after a weekend of storytelling with his friends.
Hope you are having a good week Kyle...

Thanks for dropping by.
If there is news tomorrow I will post to the blog but if not I will wait till there is.

Hi Everyone
Thanks for all of your feedback to my last post.
I have a favor to ask.
A young man (18) Named Kyle Jay from our community here on Prince Edward Island suffered a Brainstem stroke in March and has been in hospital in Halifax ever since.
His family is with him, his friends have created a group on Facebook and his community and workmate have been organizing various fund raising events and acts of kindness to help out.

Hi Gang
Well I have been wandering around the globe and having such fun. (virtually of course) This can easily be accomplished through the use of the internet that is now referred to as Net 2.0 (social networking)
I have been introduced to http://www.facebook.com Over 60,000,000 accounts have been set up and people are finding long lost friends from years ago. Even lost family members turn up. There is way too much to FaceBook to even begin to explain it here. If you haven't set up you

I also wanted to let Clark Taylor know that I did find his reply on my last post....Thanks Clark. I am so happy to know that you are doing well.
I really havn't made a lot of plans for 2008 but the Consumer Electronics Show starts today in Las Vegas so I guess I will be keeping an eye on that over the next four days.

Well I am finnaly back from summer... What a summer it has been. August was a very full month as I was involved in the Thirty Day Challenge 2007 and that was way busy.

October was taken up with another new Kingdom Hall construction project and getting ready to give a presentation at the Provincial Heart and Stroke Conference Nov 01st to 03rd. Also I was asked to attend an extensive environmental course Nov 05th to

I got Steve's email just as I was about to create a blogger blog and just had to make this post due to the urgency of Steve's article. Of course one way to help Steve is to hug, love and vote for the blog so that it gets a higher ranking in the search engines and more people will

I just dropped in to check on stuff and I think I am totaly lost. Nothing looks familiar to me. I am not sure if this is part of an upgrade or just a freaky twist in the digital weather but I find it very confusing.

Just wanted to let everyone know that the PEI Heart & Stroke newsletter is online in PDF format.
You can download it by going to that site (just google stroke pei) and look for the download link part way down the page.
I am not including a link here as there is a donation request in the newsletter and it is not in keeping with Strokenet policy to link to other sites of that nature. (I think)
But...If you google Stroke PEI and go to the PEI Heart & Stroke

This post is in response to a question from HostSue about the Anne series being filmed here on P.E.I.
I believe the Anne series was filmed in Ontario while great pains were taken to make it look and feel like P.E.I.
There was another series (based on the writings of Lucy Maud) that was filmed here on P.E.I.
It is called "Emily of New Moon" and I think they filmed three seasons. The girls featured are Islanders and the set was in the Cabott Park area just East of S
