And so begins the rest of our lives...

Mon 4th Aug - How can so many things happen at the same time? Today is my sister's birthday, my friend's son's birthday, and another friend's birthday; tomorrow Jonica has her teeth crowned and my parents leave on their 5wk Canadian holiday. Doesn't sound like that much when you write it down, but it adds up to a lot of emotion!

This afternoon Daddy and Jonica left on their adventure to Toowoomba. They're staying overnight tonight because surgery is early tomorrow morning (apparently she's second on the list) so they need to be at the hospital at 6:30am, and we thought it would be better to already be in T'ba rather than leaving home at 4:30am! Apparently she's vomited in the motel room tonight, more likely a consequence of being too full than of anything else, but still not so fun for everyone. Hospital says to come in as planned anyway and see what the anaesthetist says in the morning. Great, just what we needed, a spanner in the works. Hopefully she'll sleep ok the rest of the night and all will be well for tomorrow...

Stay tuned for more updates, I'll try to post as things happen, every few days.
