Sun 1-Mar-09 (Maria comes home)

Apologies for the dot-points, but I want it to be punchy as there is a fair bit ahead for us over the rest of the afternoon/evening:

  • We arrived home about 3:45pm and she is currently sleeping on the lounge downstairs.
  • The kids will be home in a while and no doubt excited to have her back.
  • Effie’s flight arrives in Tel Aviv around 10pm.
  • Maria has enough medication to kill a small horse!
  • Her inability to sleep has been due to the dosage of steroids she is receiving, which will commence winding down over time.
  • Our Neurosurgeon will meet us next Sunday to go through the pathology results and discuss treatment options.
  • Not sure when Maria will be up to visitors, quantum, duration, etc….. Watch this space.
  • Our dear friend Kathy Stewart is coordinating meals (sorry Kathy). Please contact her if you wish to be involved. If you don’t know Kathy and want to contact her, please reply to this email and I’ll pass your information on to her.
  • Thanks again for the tremendous support we continue to receive.

    It’s good to be home!
