Joel Menard Quotations

He is not a vegetable. He is conscious. He understands what we say. He can shake, open and close his eyes and move his head. He cannot speak...all his body parts can move but without coordination. This is generally positive since doctors were worried that the left side of his body may be more affected than the right. So far that is not the case. He still has a tube in his throat for breathing. They tried to take it out but were obliged to put it back. He is fed through his nose.

There is no longer a chance of death.

We have two to three critical days ahead of us. Doctors have set a period of five to eight days to see an improvement.
