Yesterday, Travis Roy -- accompanied by his mother -- was
transfered to the Shepherd Spinal Center in Atlanta to continue
his rehabilitation.  According to an article in the Boston
Herald, he is expected to be at the center for two months. His
family hopes that he will be home by the end of April in
time for his sister's wedding.
 
The BU team said goodbye to Travis on Sunday at BU Medical Center,
and it was "an emotional afternoon."  Travis also told the team that
he is hoping to return to school for the fall semester.
 
In a press conference yesterday, Travis' father, Lee, said that
Travis' bed sore has healed, and he has regained some weight and has
had some sensation in his right arm and abdomen.  However, Travis "is
still in need of a miracle or a new discovery of medical science to
be able to walk again."
