Little Hawk, I'll be keeping Raptor, his fiancee, and friends like you in the Light. Thank you for sharing this information. I'm glad he has the Canadian Health Care System and is already able to use a walker. I pay for one of the best available in the US and once was in an induced coma for almost a month. When the insurance money for my occupational and physical therapy ran out, I was just starting the transition from a walker to a cane. (I'm much better now because of what I've done on my own. Unless you saw me stepping off a curb or walking down stairs with no railing, you wouldn't know I'd ever had a problem.) Please continue to let us know about Raptor's progress. I'm glad he has you for a friend.
