im doing well

Hi to all of you
Im sorry about the delay in myresponse to all the cards and letters.
I am out of the hospital as of three weeks ago.
But typical me i cant stay still, within that time line I have taught a class on tactical medicine to divers in Victoria, several classes to guys at the base and i have even flown to ottawa to meet the CDS and the Prime Minister. Last saturday we were (my wife and I) the head guests to the Governer Generals ball in ottawa (she is second to the Queen in canada).
So i have been super busy.

As for my recovery again I am doing well. I have two c- legs which are this very nice articfical computer laden prostehtic device.

We have also had lots of media attention lately and i will put some links of some things on here.

This is me and my recovery story

Re: im doing well

Welcome back! Glad you found the new forum too. I was curious about the C-legs, so found this link which might explain a bit more if anyone's interested:

And don't worry too much about returning any mail, your responses here are a great update. Keep your spirits up.
