Friday 20th June – Netta
June 20th, 2008
Hi everyone – It was lovely to get so many comments from you all and the banter going between you was great too. It would be good if mum continues with the blog but I don’t know if she will – I should get her to try it over the next few days eh?
Congratulations Ollie and Linda and good luck Georgia.. We already did ‘Don’t jump off the roof dad’ last week but you must have missed it so heres another rendition…

We think those lads holding on to each other were blind Nathan. Thats the nursing school and they go in and out of there everyday we think.
Good luck Rachel – You can do it.

Check out the turn on the following vid – he did it without even thinking about it. Try to remember what he was like before. The actual walking doesn’t look any different from last week but his confidence has definately improved and things are becoming more natural. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IT2M9puoD3A Walking

Hi All
Terry it is fantastic to see what you can now do, and your speech is so much clearer, your movements are better than when we on the cruise last September. You have said that the main benefits can take up to 6 months so what are you going to get up to at Christmas?
Nearly time for you to all to come home, what an experience it has been for you, and all of us watching via the blog. Looking forward to seeing you in the flesh, and having that dance.
more funnies for you, part2.
7) I wish to report that tiles are missing from the outside toilet roof. I think it was bad wind the other night that blew them off.
My lavatory seat is cracked, where do I stand?
9) I am writing on behalf of my sink, which is coming away from the wall.
10) Will you please send someone to mend the garden path. My wife tripped and fell on it yesterday and now she is pregnant.
11) I request permission to remove my drawers in the kitchen.
12) 50% of the walls are damp, 50% have crumbling plaster and 50% are plain filthy.
13) I am still having problems with smoke in my new drawers.
Have a good weekend,
Anita & Rodger

Hello All
Great to see the fantastic moves terry, I think we should have a party for your return – it will be you we can’t keep off the dance floor (instead of Lee!).
I’ve lost the sound on ‘utube’ so can’t fully see the transformation, but the visuals are great!
The kids are looking forward to seeing you, Matthew will be dragging you to the 5 aside grandad, get your footie boots ready.
Nett, I’ve sent you some wedding photos on your personal email.
Lots of love and lots of kisses, Lee, Sinead, Kaitlin & Matthew x

Hi All,
Terry the inprovement is just amazing. Its great to see you laughing and joking. The dancing and singing are so good that we have entered you into a talent contest in Greymouth at Christmas!!!
Keep up the good work. There will be great celebrations when you return home. Its a pity we won’t be there. We will look forward to seeing you in the near future.
Lots of love,
Chris & Sheila

Great vids again, for a moment I thought Terry and Lynda were going to burst into a line dancing routine! You never know with bit of practice you could make a great double act, thta is if Terry didn’t mind you sharing the spotlight!
You all look great and not long to go now so keep up the good work.
Don’t now what we’re all going to de when you come home, logging in has become part of everyones daily routine. You have to keep it going, but perhps not daily. Unless Terry fancies his own daytime TV show – please think about it!
Paul – we’ll give you a call this weekend.
Love to you all

Hello everyone,
Have just been catching up with the messages & videos before Ieaving the office for the weekend. We will all have to join Terry with his new exercises by doing the hokey cokey. I do think Lynda does need to try doing the journal & videos etc, so that the blog may continue, (perhaps an update once a week), once Terry is back home so that we can continue to share the experience of his great improvement since arriving in China., as well as keeping regularly in touch.
Enjoy your last weekend there. Bye for now
Love Janis
