ALI BOULALA UPDATE & COMMENTS
ALI is currently making good progress in his recovery, after leaving PTA ward (post traumatic amnesia) he is able to walk unassisted to his bathroom, where the nurses happily wash him in the shower, much to ali's distaste as he was never one for showers in the past. He partakes in physical therapy on a daily basis, each day he becomes stronger and stronger due to all the excellent hospital food that he can now eat and no longer requires being fed through his stomach, he has been given an electric wheelchair to assist in longer journeys around the hospital and has undergone the advanced electric wheelchair course and is now allowed on short rides on the streets under hospital supervision, the last contact with ali he talked about putting some chrome accessories on the wheel chair to pimp it out,all in all ali is making headway in his recovery and the doctors are happy with his amazing progress. We will keep you updated in future posts.
Below is a comment section for Ali and his family.
