"I am genuinely so grateful for all the kindness shown to us in so many ways during these past five challenging weeks." He also shared a picture of him wearing his "brand new" Bluetooth headphones which were a present from his wife, Paula, who is still recovering at home.
Gareth said: "Progress here is slow but going well, and I am starting to feel big improvements overall, even though there's still some way to go. Positivity is strong and the glass is half full.
"I will be here for a while longer, so no point just for now guessing when I might be back on air. I'll let you know as soon as I know."
He also thanked all the staff at the SIVUH who have been "fantastic with their support and kindness since I arrived here.
"I hope you're enjoying the good weather. I hope this is not going to be our summer! Have a good week and I'll keep you posted."
