Update from the Weekend Nov 4-5
Tyler had a busy weekend; lots of visitors and concerts to attend.
There were 3 concerts at HHH this weekend; Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
Tyler went to Friday and Saturday's concerts. He even brought the robot (Robbie) to the concert on Saturday and made him dance. He had some surprise therapy on Sunday and missed the big band swing machine.
He was able to get our of his room alot this weekend with his visitors and even went outside and played his guitar with Tammy.
Sunday's dinner featured potato gnuocci (sp?) that Tyler was not crazy about. So he made a zulu warrior sculpture out of it using the raisins from his carrot salad and tinfoil. He has some pictures from his cell phone to prove it. His nurse got a good laugh over it when he showed her!
On Saturday there was a shoot a thon, a Varsity Boys and JV boys Basketball tournament and a bake sale at MPB school. There was also a JV girls tournament at St Stevens in Warwick. There was a great turnout for all the events. Thank you to all the particpants and the people who worked so hard to make the day a lot of fun and a great sucess.
The MPB varsity boys won thier tournament on Saturday and they took the winners plaque (sp?) to Tyler on Sunday. They dedicated the win to him. He was very happy to see the boys even though he was feeling a little under the weather.On Monday he starts his first full week of therapy and is told he will be getting a different chair and a new Doctor by Wednesday.
Till the next update... Has anyone figured out the joke sent by Aodhan: Why does a goose cross the cement (hint the cement is wet)?
We are looking for help with this so give us your answers
LoveTyler, Jay Lori Justin and Keegan

Update for Monday and Tuesday Nov 6-7
This is a combined update for the first 2 days this week. Tyler had a crummy day on monday because his medications made him feel sick. He wasn't himself most all day and went to sleep around 7:30.
Teusday was a much better day. He felt good enough to dress himself without any help. He did his morning therapy and went to the cafeteria for Lunch. Today's therapy involved having him STAND in a special device. The device holds his body up straight and supports most of his weight for him. He stood for about 10 minutes and said it felt good.
Tonight he is excited to see Aunt Maureen because she is bringing him a "zulu sword" from her trip to South Africa. He has been waiting "patiently" for it to arrive. We can only hope it as cool as his zulu warrior sculpture made out of his potatoes last sunday. He took a picture of the sculpture with his cell phone and is trying to get it up on the website today.
He also changed to a lighter wheelchair on Monday and it seems to roll better abd steer easier. It won't be long before he asks to have the wheelie bars removed so he can do some "sweet" tricks.
Thank you everybody and keep those comments coming....anybody got the goose joke figured out yet??
Tyler, Lori Jay Justin and Keegy
