Our initial appointment at the hospital went very well. The place is modern and clean with good facilities and the team involved in the SDR surgery are located together in a suite of rooms on the 4th floor. All the staff seem professional and focused but also friendly.
We watched a video presentation of the SDR which included a close up of the surgery being performed, and I don't blame Daniel for looking away from the screen!
We met the main surgeon, Dr Park,and he said that Daniel will be very weak for a few weeks after the surgery but may walk with his frame again before we come home. He said Daniel will reach his potential in about 2 years when he should be able to sit comfortably and upright, walk with crutches smoothly, and cruise around the house with no walking aids.
We met a man from Dublin whose son was near the end of the treatment, and he was full of praise for the hospital which was very good to hear!
