UP AND ABOUT AGAIN

Tony is up and about again having had another hospital stay.  At least this time it was at home. The upgrade at Pindara private hospital is fantastic and still on going.  Old scar tissue from 40 years ago had to be severed from organs and it was very successful. Both surgical procedures, the gall bladder removal in Cairns and now the scar tissue problem (this time via laproscopic surgery) were done by South African surgeons. Both surgeons immigrated to Australia 5 years ago.  Tony now takes pancreatic enzymes with every meal and snack. His huge loss of weight was due to non absorption of food. I'm happy to report he's now putting on weight.

SO FIRST TRIP WITH TONY FEELING MARVELOUS, WAS VALENTINES DAY IN SYDNEY.  OUT ON SYDNEY HARBOUR FOR DINNER AND CABARET CRUISE AND STAYED AT SEBEL PIER ONE UNDER THE BRIDGE IN THE ROCKS AREA OF SYDNEY.
A PIECE OF ART ON THE ROUNDABOUT WITH TONY OR THE OTHER WAY AROUND?
