On Thursday, the club revealed the prop had been discharged \u2014 with coach Craig Bellamy telling the media he had exchanged texts with an \u201cultra positive\u201d Kamikamica.<\/p>\n
He was visited in hospital by players and staff following the stroke.<\/p>\n
And the Storm offered yet more support to their player on Friday evening when skipper Grant, 28, sprinted out onto the field at the CommBank Stadium while showcasing a Fijian flag.<\/p>\n
In response to the heartfelt moment, Storm fan Theresa said on social media: \u201cHarry running out with the Fiji flag, nice little gesture towards teammate Tui.\u201d<\/p>\n
The moment came just 24 hours after the Storm faithful received the positive news that Kamikamica had been allowed to leave hospital \u2014 and was expected to return to the club and continue his rehab process.<\/p>\n
Boss Bellamy said: \u201cI exchanged texts with him there yesterday \u2013 he\u2019s always ultra positive. He says he\u2019ll be back soon.\u201d<\/p>\n
However, Bellamy refused to be drawn on when Kamikamica could be back on the pitch, and dismissed any speculation surrounding the signing of a replacement forward.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m not going to say whether it\u2019s a year, a month or whatever,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
\u201cAt the end of the day, I don\u2019t know, and with all due respect, we\u2019re not concerned about that.<\/p>\n
\u201cI didn\u2019t think of (recruiting) myself actually. At the moment we are just concerned with hopefully Tui making a full recovery.\u201d<\/p>\n
On Wednesday, Storm director of football Frank Ponissi told SEN: \u201cHe\u2019s made a remarkable recovery.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe\u2019s still got a long way to go, but in terms of where he was Monday morning after his medical episode and (being) rushed to hospital, it\u2019s quite remarkable.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe\u2019s getting released from hospital today into some rehab, so he\u2019ll go to a rehab centre and start some more rehab but also get assessed.\u201cThe doctors have ruled out anything coming from the game or travel or any conditions like that. It\u2019s purely a medical episode that he had an underlying issue, but as I said, remarkable recovery in such a short period of time.\u201d
Teammate and former housemate Will Warbrick said he was \u201cemotional and rattled\u201d when he first heard the news but was put at ease when Kamikamica cracked a joke when he visited him at hospital.<\/p>\n
Fellow prop forward Josh King said the news put things in perspective for Storm.<\/p>\n
\u201cFor us, it\u2019s a timely reminder how precious life is and how you can sometimes take your health for granted,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cTui is a fit young man so you\u2019d never think that something like that could happen to him.<\/p>\n
\u201cFor us after two losses, you probably think how there are other important things in life other than just football.\u201d<\/p>\n
Storm went on to lose 50-10 to the Panthers on Friday night as they suffered their third defeat in five games.<\/p>\n
