Subject: RE: BS: Prayers and Thoughts for Raptor
I visited David in his new lodgings today. He's on the third floor of the Rebhab clinic and he has a balcony. From this balcony can be seen an enormous and beautiful weeping willow and some other trees and grass. We talked about stuff for about 2 hours, and then a couple of his motorcycle club friends showed up. He is improving rapidly, left arm is now working fine, but they say he has a touch of pneumonia, so he coughs a fair bit. His mood is cheerful and upbeat.

Here's the Thursday update from Julie:

Thursday 2220h:

This morning I packed up 6 1/2 weeks worth of stuff in my hotel room. It's remarkable what one can collect! Giant thanks to Kim Gate for picking me up and bringing me home to Barrie. And what an overwhelming surprise to come into the house and find that it had been cleaned by my new neighbour, Jennifer! I did not have the energy for that job and was dreading it. After I got settled in and collected some things for David, I went back down to St. John's. David had his first day of therapy and was pretty worn out. They are going to make an appointment for him at a special clinic at St. Michael's to have his lungs checked. We'll go down in a wheelchair taxi. Mary Hetherington and her girls stopped by for a nice visit and David was able to play Mary's guitar, which was a huge relief to him. It was good to hear him sing and play!
