Donations for Connor

"I've made this blog for my brother Connor Dick. He was in a bad work accident falling 30+ feet off the UBC building they were working on October 24th, 2013. He sustained multiple injuries, the worst being a traumatic brain injury called Diffuse Axonal Injury. I will post updates and pictures on his progress along his road to recovery. We've made a PayPal account and a trust account for Connor where you can make donations. Every bit helps no matter how big or small. You can also help bring awareness to traumatic brain injuries by sharing his story."

X-Ray Results

On April 23rd, 2014 just one day shy of the 6 month mark since his accident, Connor and our mom went back to VGH to get X-Rays done on Connors wrist. We were all patiently waiting for the day to come, to find out if the plate would be removed and his bones fused together, or if the plate could come out and Connor could get all his functions back. I called my mom on their way back from the hospital and she told me the fantastic news, on May 5th, 2014 the plate is scheduled to be taken out and Connor will be able to start using his wrist again. It is however considered an elective surgery so hopefully he will get in that day and they wont push the date back. The doctors had said all the broken pieces did exactly what they were hoping they would and apparently Connor had the biggest smile on his face when they told him. I know he'd been extremely worried about what he was going to hear that day and I'm so happy it's now one less thing for him to worry about.

    That’s great to hear! How is he doing? Did he get in for the elective surgery? I hope he’s recuperating well after all the necessary treatments and procedures are done. I wish him a quick and smooth recovery. Have a good day!
