Its good that he has gone from 0 to 4
Just think what he will be after a few more days

I want to see his toes twiddleTHEN I'll be very happy

butto you love

Can't really find the right words...

Our thoughts and prayers are with you both. Stay strong - and tell him we're all thinking of him!

All we can do is support him hoggy and be there if he needs us

my hootoo family is always there besides megoes without saying.

friends are!

It is good news, indeed!

Glad he is making steady progress and the right decision, for the moment at least. Bodies are miraculous things as you know well Prof.

Give him a hug from us (Me and N) if you can touch

Hello prof whats today's progress repot, good news I hope smiley

you and your son have all our best wishes prof,
hope all goes well, can't imagine what you must be going through
but we're all here to wish our support

27th Apr
this morning while the physio was there, he twitched a toe on his left foothe couldn't do it mm and his cousin this aft' but one twitch is as good as 100
he can also, since yesterday, lift his right arm so he can sort off stroke his right eye
they will transfer him from Leeds G.I. to Pinderfields spinal recovery unit (Wakefield) as soon as a bed is available and he'll stay in prone position he is in at the moment for about 6 to 8 weeks, then I think they'll operate on the broken bone/s in his neck


to add suspensedon't ask me which toe


I ain't got a clue

That is good news proff tell him well done from us.

Things are on the right tack he will be well and soon enough the wait is going to be frustrating but he will make it.

Tell him to hang in there - not that he has any choice if he is laid up and has you for a Dad

to your family. I can't pretend I know what you are all going through, but I have a good imagination.

Congratulations! Good work there.

Twitch on!

At this stage that's as good as a long walk!

as you know mehumour is my life, so I have to take all advantages

I've now a son,who's a failed "Darwin Award" entry
also I've told him that if he tries to get out of hoovering the house, I'll stand behind the living room door with a powerful magnet with him on the other side
(more than likely to have steel plate/s and pins in neck)

Congrats and a hug to him.

And a hug to you, too.

28th Apr update

had a phone call confirmation 11.00am ish, they are transferring him back to Wakefield/Pinderfields spinal recovery unit this afternoon and he will remain in his present state (prone)for approx' 6 to 8 weeks (according to one doc')and then back to Leeds G.I for the op', then back to Wakie for recovery and "rehabilitation" I expect


the other day, he must have been having a "sponge down" ? or something and at a certain part of his body he said "I can feel that" the nurse replied "and that's all your going to get" that's my boy
