Yahoo, he has turned into a horrible teenager! Nic is back, with a body that wants to go forward and a feisty personality that is so Nic! Oh my Gosh, you can put the teenager in a wheelchair but never out of the child. This drive will take him to places no one ever imagined…if…
April 21st Week Ten
This was the week of challenges and finding strength. While I was in ICU way back in February (seems like a year ago!) I was reading that the Oprah Winfrey Show was coming to town for the first time. What sealed the deal for me was Deepak Chopra and the Bishop T.D. Jakes were…
April 17th Week Nine
How far have we come? This is a picture that Mitchell took the first week Nic was in ICU. I couldn’t post it back then, it was way too scary. I wanted to keep everything positive and Nic protected, and this would have let you all know just how Big this was. I remember…
April 7th Week Eight
Happy Easter Everyone!! On Monday was our first family meeting at Lyndhurst. I was a little concerned. I didn’t want anyone to tell Nicolas, based on your level of injury “You are this”…I don’t believe in “You are this”. I should have known better…they where amazing as always. Overview of the last couple…
March 30th Week Seven
Hi Everyone, Lyndhurst Rehabilitation Center is a community with everyone wheeling, motoring, shuffling and pretty much just moving. It is CRAZY cool. As I write this in the center core, the Coffee shop is humming and people are just being their normal. Everything is accessible here and it’s like life should be this way…
March 23rd Week Six
Do you ever wonder why things happen to certain people? I truly believe that this adventure that my family and friends are on is to see what is truly important in life. This change in our lives has touched many people…and I think most of you stepped back and thought of how thankful you…
March 14, 2012 Week Five
I can’t sleep…it’s 12:21am and I am looking over St Michael’s Hospital from the 17th floor of my hotel…and my mind is racing. Mitchell and Brittany have left to Muskoka to look after the puppies and to sleep in a bed they can both fit on I think. The three of us have…
March 13, 2012 Week Four
Hi Everyone, Week 4, I cannot believe it. I look back at the last blog and it seems a like a lifetime ago. So much happens in our lives in such a short period of time. Nic…well he is told the goals as we go along and he blows them out of…
March 2, 2012 Week Three
Hi Everyone, We are at Week #3. I “Love” the end of the week, because I get to tell you all the great things that Nicolas has accomplished. At the start of the week, his oxygen levels where awful, his lung kept collapsing…physio worked on him so hard that he was exhausted…
February 24th Week Two
Hi Everyone, It has been 2 weeks since Nicolas’ accident. Amazed at how he has handled the ups and downs of this adventure. We where waiting for days for a surgery that we decided not to go ahead with. This surgery was to fuze his neck from C3 to C7 vertebrae, to stabilize his…
