Hi Caffy

Hmmm....sounds like somethings going on. :bye: If his spinal cord was 50% damaged then some messages must be getting through from his brain. 10 weeks isnt long and changes can take place for a couple of years...... Good luck - I will keep my fingers crossed for you both! :lol:

:bye: Is the expression I think aswell! I dunno, very hopeful and positive. CT scans and things show a 50-60% damage to his spine but steroids were quickly administered and the spinal shock seems to not be gone yet but also not have caused any more damage to the cord further up his spine.

Looks like he's a leftie, good left hand movement, sensation down to his belly button and getting serious pins and needles to his left leg when he tries to move it.

Waiting game, waiting game.. oh how I hate thee!
