  1. Wow, Brent, Scot and Carolyn!
    This is news we've prayed for for a long time. It must be thrilling and very scary at the same time to contemplate your return home and away from your medical team. You continue to amaze and inspire me. I continue to pray for your strength. Peace be with you.

  5. Wow. What terrific news for you and your family! There is still lots of work to do with physio when you get home, but you'll be back in Saskatoon!! Great for you. I know all of the hospital staff and we Reginans who have been following your progress will miss having you in our city....but know that we are sooooo happy for you.

    I sure hope you continue to update us all through your blog when you're back up north!

    You should be so proud of yourself Brent! You've come such a long way. Your parents deserve special mention too...way to go!

    Keep getting stronger. Keep smiling. And rest well.

  11. So glad to hear that you're coming back to Saskatoon soon. You'll have to come over and hang out with Ben. Our basement is new and we have a great comfy couch for you to sit on. You're invited to have your first sleep over at our house.
