12th December 2008

What a great night last night’s prize giving was. There were a few special guests there, like the chairman of New Zealand Rugby League Ray Haffenden, Melbourne Storm Coach Craig Bellamy and a few life members of NZRL, however the most important guest of all was “THE RUGBY LEAGUE WORLD CUP” Who would’ve ever guessed that poor old Wellington Rugby League would get to have that at their prize giving. Anyway enough bragging.
My little girl had her surgery today. By the time she got over to theatre it was just after 2pm. Antz met her surgeon Toni Wilson, I’d already met her. We discovered she was a rugby league supporter so we knew she was in excellent hands. We were told it would take about 3 or more hours so we went down to Courtenay Central had lunch and then looked around the shops in town. At around 4pm we decided we should go back, then my cellphone rang, I did a bit of a panic, it was her surgeon and they had finished and she was back on the ward already. She
looked quite alert and was moving around when we talked to her. She has a drain in her chest to drain any excess blood or fluid that may be around the area they operated on. The cut is very small so the scar will be very minimal when she gets older. It will be interesting to see how much of an improvement she makes after the surgery has worn off.
