Dad, Uncle Robert, Ultrasound and Turramurra Rotary

It’s been a rather unusual week.

Dad has been admitted to Palative care. He has suffered a bladder infection, and in his weakened condition, it is better for him to be in the care of professionals.

It’s very sad seeing Dad, he seems to not recognise me anymore. He at times seems aware, and other times, he seems to just look through me. I love and respect my Dad, and it is hard to see him slowly loosing conciseness!

On happier matters, My Uncle Robert came down from QLD, and stayed with Tomoko and I for a night last thursday. He came to visit Dad, unfortunately in Dad’s weakened condition, he stayed with us for the night. Uncle Robert offered both Tomoko and I a lot of comfort. It was great seeing him again.

Tomoko and I had a great day. We had our first Ultrasound scan today, and we were delighted to discover that the baby is growing beautifully. We could see his/her little heart beat. We can’t yet tell it’s sex. He/She is now 8 weeks old, and about the size of a jelly bean.

Finally, I was welcomed to Turramurra Rotary Club tonight. It was lovely to be made to feel so welcome. Tomoko came to dinner as well, and everyone was so nice and open. I am looking forward to helping Turramurra Rotary with the fantastic work they are involved in.
