Finally rehab in sight

[waters3]

Hi All,

First I want to thank all of you so much for all the information and the advice to keep pushing and advocate myself for my son (Anthony). Alot has happened in the past couple of weeks. Anthony was approved to be moved to Jackson Memorial in Miami for rehab, wounds and all. Of course he will not be able to start right away; but at least he is somewhere that he needs to be. I am so glad he is out of St. Joseph's in Tampa. We were flown down two days ago and the difference here is like night and day. After looking back on his stay at St. Joseph's I don't know what to say. They have a more positive attitude here and am so grateful for a Dr. Kuluz that tried hard to get him here after hearing about his case. He says he should be able to be weaned off the ventilator. They just had somebody in here with the same level of injury as Anthony and that young man was successfully weaned. The team of Drs. that Anthony has is great so far. This is what it is supposed to be like. We will keep in touch.
