Sunday 28 December

Today we started the day early and went for a walk in the park with Melanie and some ball throwing. The only problem is that Gus hasn't quite mastered the art of retrieve and will get the ball but will then run around the park for the next 15 mins with Nina chasing after him chackling. Nina and Gus love it though and Gus especially likes to run to the creek and sit in the cool water for a cool down with the ball in his mouth!

Trish, Bill and Melanie went to Murchison for a day trip to have a picnic lunch with Nana, Grandad and Joss. They managed to find a lovely place near the Buller River and had a great couple of hours in the sun eating sausages in bread. It was a lovely warm day and Melanie and Bill went for a swim in the river. Very cold but very refreshing.

Granny had lots of visitors yesterday and was feeling a little tired. She has been moved to another room with 3 other ladies. The nurses got Granny up in her for the whole day yesterday but we are not sure how much walking she was able to do. She had two blood transfusions (500ml each we think) today but we are not sure why. Dad is going to see her tomorrow morning so will find out all the details when he goes in. Mum said that the surgeon was Dr Alex Rutherford. I do another post tomorrow and let you know the details.
