Jaime may not understand because he is having to deal with being caught with TM. Share your feelings and thoughts with Jaimie, and ask him to share with you. > Dr. Kerr told Jayme that there is no reason why he shouldn't walk > again with lots of aqua and standing.

I know. I live in both countries. If you have the right insurance or lots of $$$ you can get the Physiotherapy to get that toe wiggling, but Canada has sociallized medical care >I have hurt my back from trying to move Jayme's legs and helping him.

Maybe asking at the hospital's social service department. Someone to come in several times a week for an hour or two?? >I shouldn't be complaining but sometimes I just need > reassurance.
