Mar 19, 2014 | 10:25 AM

Tim Bozon is now in stable condition and has been moved out of the intensive care unit.

The star Kootenay Ice hockey player was admitted to a Saskatoon hospital early this month after being diagnosed with meningitis.

Bozon’s parents said in a media release that he is awake, moving around in his bed, trying to feed himself and trying to speak.

He had been in a coma and doctors were slowly trying to wake him up.

The Bozon family is thankful for the support they are receiving through things like anonymous gifts, restaurant vouchers and fruit baskets.
