RE: Shaun Harris in critical condition
From Fiona via Facebook (Thursday 4th Feb) 

So day 13.

Shaun has stood and taken a few steps. At first not knowing how to formulate how to move legs. Getting really frustrated.

I do have to laugh at some of the inappropriate things he mouths and the faces he pulls.

Sometimes he's here, next lights on no one home. Normal head injury stuff.

He has come a very long way from the night I was told we'll give him 72 hours then turn off life support. If he survives that he will probably be a veg. (No jokes he already is Icon_wink or what kind of veg ).

I have had amazing support and great words of encouragement so cheers for that.

Amazing news! Shaun sure does know how to knock himself about. He's like a prize fighter, he ALWAYS comes back for more!
I am sending my best wishes for a speedy and full recovery.

RE: Shaun Harris in critical condition
From Fiona via Facebook - Day 16 


Shaun has really made remarkable progress to how he was 15 days ago but that is his fighting spirit. 

He has walked around ICU with gutter frame and two physio ladies helping. 

He still has a trachy but breaths by himself with humidified oxygen attached to it. 

He sometimes is with me mentally and those are the hopes I hang onto. 

Funny I seem to be the one drug free thing that calms him (makes a change). 

He is in ward 28 CHCH Neuro ward. 

Petra and myself have to go home today so it is kind of a gut wrenching day for us. When I fly back on Friday for weekend, made possible by people's generosity, I hope to get a thumbs up pic. 

Again thanks everyone for support we all have battles so I very much appreciate it.

RE: Shaun Harris in critical condition
From Fiona Saturday 13th

Ok so its day 21

I'm back down with Shaun. He slept for 6 hours first time last night/morning. Go Shaun.

Got back to ward after he had woken and what a change. ...He wrote me a message on the white board..... Txt to Fee from Shaun Harris. Blew me away.

He still is here one minute and then not but what amazing determination that man has..... 21 days post a serious brain injury. Shaun you rock.

If you visit, take him as you see him.

Thanks Cam fund, My boss Robyn Sanders, Dom his in and outlaws, Dianna. Karen and Andrew Stroud (you keep my faith alive) and my beautiful children and parents.

Kind of feel like that was a grammy speech. I have so many more to thank and I will. I'm so greatful.

Fiona :- Today Friday 19th (or maybe Saturday 20th) !!!

3.30 wake up call cause Shaun misbehaving. Jumped into bed with him, took 5min for him to fall in to a deep sleep so now I get to watch him sleep. But there's nothing better than that.

Today Friday 26th


Fiona Kelsen

Morning again Avon and CHCH hosp.

Off to pace another day with the crazy man. ( I mean that with a lot of affection) Pacing is what Shaun Harris does well, if you can picture him at the track. Wink

He has a lot of his procedural memory back, the rest in time I pray. He still has his personality and I thank God for that. No one like Shaun.

Fiona Kelsen

Have had a great long weekend with Shaun, Petra and Asha.

Visits from friends to ABI who made an awesome difference.

By the time me and girls left today he was that bit more onto it.

Left him with a borrowed radio ( thanks Spyda and Rachael).... dialled to the rock an hopefully loud as lipsyncing to follow.

Go hard Shaun. Waiting to hear the real thing in our garage. X

Saturday 2nd April - From Facebook

Fiona Kelsen  

I spent another day with Shaun, this time with son Avon daughter Jinni and their daughter Rainah. What a difference that has made. 

What a rascal he is especially with Avon in the mix egging him on. Was great to see. 

Funny thing was me and Shaun would go for a walk and when he came back to Avon it was like seeing him for the first time all over again. He was so happy. 

His trachy cuff was deflated so he could talk. Good news his trachy will be out on Monday so he'll be able to start eating and drinking aaand talking out allowed, ouch. 

I know he has a long road still and I know we are luckier than most but today was the best time I have had with him since. X
