Diamond Earrings
That’s what I call my new hearing aids. Why? Because they cost about the same. I knew my hearing had deteriorated as I couldn’t hear from another room, I needed the TV turned up. Nothing too drastic but I knew. Then I failed the test Sophie passed in Sydney. She was dropping coins in the slot when she heard a sound and I didn’t hear a thing. So long story short I got myself tested and there was quite a loss. Then came the choice of aids. Four levels of cost and of course because my hearing is so important I had to choose the best. You can’t even see that I am wearing them they are so small.

Sophie’s Ear Operation
I just saw that she has had her operation and that she is recovering well. Lots of love to her.

Easter Egg Hunt in Singapore
It is such a hard life for Singapore Clan. Off to Bali with Scottish friends then back for Easter fun. I have made three videos (see RHS) of the traditional egg hunt. It was not good news to hear that Kate was so ill whilst in Bali.
Easter Visit
On Easter Sunday Erich and I took the new car for a run to Yarragon to visit Trish Neilson and Graeme Hart. Trish is a very long standing friend of Erich. They have moved from a tiny house in Abbotsford to what I must call an estate in Yarragon – about an hour and a quarter run from Melbourne. For what they sold Abbotsford they got 4 acres and a huge house in Yarragon. Graeme is originally from there. The property was spectacular.


James in Championship Soccer Team
Well done James. His team won the Anza Soccer U8s. Makes those early Saturday mornings worthwhile.

Oh Là Là Charlotte
Charlotte received her placement for Middle School. Very exciting news. Congratulations.

Health News
Not so good I am afraid. At my last visit 3 weeks ago my blood markers from previous visit were up to 45 (normal is 30 and under) and this visit the previous visit’s results were even more alarming. They were up to 65. So I had blood taken again on Friday and the oncologist will call me with those results when we gets them. We hoped late Friday but that didn’t happen so looks like Monday. If the markers are still high(more than likely) I will have to go for a scan to see what’s happening. I asked if I would go back onto chemo and he said no. He said because I don’t have B1 and B2 but maybe some other renegade gene I may be eligible for some special drug – taken in tablet form.
I am not sure I want to talk about it right now. I will know more later in the week I imagine. Maybe the cancer is back. It is very frustrating as there no actions I can take to fix things. I just don’t know how I feel about anything.
