    Until last week, Hamish has been doing well in his recovery, despite not being able to access outpatient physical therapy from the Hospital yet, he and Kelly have been paying for private therapy for him. He was recently accepted into a program through QE Health which he was due to start this week. Unfortunately late last week, he has had a further setback when it appeared he had a further stroke, upon admittance to hospital, the Doctors said that a migraine was causing pressure in his brain, causing left side paralysis. He has begun bouncing back from this set back though, and came home again yesterday.

    Hamish's recovery process has been going well until the weekend. He has developed strep throat, and had an unfortunate fall from his hospital bed during the night. No broken bones thankfully, but he's certainly had a set back. Family are pushing for new MRI and CT scans to be done as he has had a recurrence of the intense pain in his neck that he had in the early days.

    Hamish is making small but consistent steps towards his recovery. Thank you so much to all those who have donated, shared the link and spread the love.

    Recent medication changes have helped ease the "non-seizures" that Hamish has been having, which helps him rest. He has started physical therapy too.
