    I have refrained from saying much on this thread as I don't know what to say. Anyway I have helped a little on the fundraiser and am so glad to see an improvement, albeit small at this stage. I am not big on relegion, but have a friend who is and she has I think the entire Irish Catholic community of Perth or maybe even WA praying for your son.

    Today was a great day for my son as he got to spend some time outside the hospital for the first time in over 5 weeks, the smile on his face was incredible.
    Over the past week Andrew has been amazing the staff at the RPA with his recovery, he has gone from having no chance of survival to being able to sit up and have his ventilation turned off for periods of time. He has slowly been weened of the heavy sedatives and pain killers and has been able to communicate with us by writing and typing on a tablet or phone.
    All the ICU staff at the RPA keep coming into his room and saying how impressed and happy they are with his progress. The head ICU nurse said they have a policy of patients leaving ICU in a wheelchair but with Andrew they want him to walk out as that is fitting for him and the strength he has shown.
    He has been frustrated and impatient as he wants the tracheotomy and feed tube gone so I have keep telling him to be patient, he desperately wants to talk and eat and drink.
    To think 2 weeks ago the doctors were telling us we should choose a funeral company, should never give up hope.

    That is bloody great news, Tony. Give Andrew my best wishes.
    My advice is: not to follow my advice.

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.
