Had been feeling really well since my last blog, however things took a slight turn for the worse last Wednesday around lunch time. I felt faint and nauseous and headed off to the doctors for treatment. The nausea settled, but on Thursday pain levels increased in my chest and abdomen area. Taking maxalon tablets for the nausea and off to the doctors again tomorrow to look at pain management. I am breathing shallowly to minimise the pain in my chest however, it's not stopping me from spending time in the garden and continuing with volunteer work at the school and hospital.

Enjoyed a wonderful weekend with Marg after dropping Tahnee and Marli off at the airport to go to Perth to spend a week with their brother Andrew.
We continued onto Melbourne, staying in an apartment in Little Bourke Street in Chinatown for 2 nights. We enjoyed the Vic Markets, a movie at the Nova and the Tim Winton play "Rising Water" at the Playhouse and then dinner with friends on Saturday evening.

You would have been proud of us on Sunday morning reading the Sunday papers in bed and enjoying a large fruit platter before heading off to St. Paul's Cathedral for a choral communion service.

Faith still strong and determined and I have a walk planned with some friends this Friday and hopefully going to the West Coast/Collingwood game at the MCG on Saturday before picking the girls and Andrew up on Saturday night.

Thank you all for your kind and generous remarks and ongoing support of thoughts and prayers. They are very much appreciated.
