Hi Everyone

Well I just peeked into the J Room and found a post from Mama J. Here it is.

Hello everyone, Kyle is having a bit of a down day today. Really tired. But continues on with his corking and bound to get it out soon. He can put his sunglasses and hat on now. Each day he seems to do a new thing. Oh Happy Bday to you Pam, miss our chats.

Pam I assume is one of Kyle's nurses in Halifax. It is great that they (Halifax staff) can follow Kyle's progress on his Facebook group.

When I was out for my evening walk tonight I met five members of the Jay family at Tim's in Montague. Kyle's Grandfather and his Grandmother as well as his aunt Brenda, his dad Garth and his younger brother.

His grandmother thinks that Kyle is doing better since he made it back to Charlottetown. He had some friends visit him today, so even though Kyle had a down day with some sickness he was lifted up with visits from his friends.

Kyle is not in the rehab unit yet. He will be in Unit 5 until he is able to get his trake removed and able to take in food the old fashioned way. He is working hard on getting to that level as soon as possible.

His dad told me that he seems to be understanding that this is a long haul thing and he is settling down to taking it one step at a time. Kyle's attitude is good and he is making good progress.

He is being kept busy with his recovery exercises and routines so when I do get to visit with him it will most likely not be a long visit.

I will post again as more news comes in.

Thanks everyone for all of your encouragement. Kyle's dad said tonight that there is certainly a large group of stroke survivors encouraging his son and he would like to say thank you for your support.

Smiles
