    I hope, like others, that everything works out well for you both.
    Gee 4 months is along time. I suppose that you will be getting a lesson in exercising patients.
    One great thing for you will be the chance to sneak off and get a "shed fix" from those hospitable Forumites around Bris.
    Just do it!

    Kind regards Rod

    I was building a CBG in the garage until the owner objected to the sawdust.

    Getting organised to move now, I'll be driving down over 2 days, Wednesday & Thursday to be here ready for Friday.

    First week or so will be a big learning curve but once I've settled in, I'll be looking to make a nuisance of myself.

    I wish you well and good health to you and yours my friend.

    Just to update this thread. (I've had a couple of people ask)

    Treatment is going well, we were allowed to take a break to drive out to Longreach for my Dad's 80th birthday & then we flew to Hawaii for 2 weeks.
    (Holiday had been booked & paid for at the start of the year, we just needed to wait to see how things were going.)

    We are back in Brissy for another 2 months at least.

    Hope to be going home fore Christmas.

    I've resumed work on my CBG, (thread in the Musical Instrument Section) I just have to do the sanding out on the driveway.

    Default Update.

    Op is over & done with.

    We went to see the surgeon on Friday, don't need to see him for 6 months.
    Went to the Oncologist today, don't need to see her for 3 months.

    Gina will get Herceptin every three weeks for the rest of her life, had a dose this arvo, next dose will be in Cairns on the 30th.
    She is on a plane tomorrow arvo, I'll start driving Wednesday morning, plan to do it in 2 days, about 900K a day.

    Gina's car is in Cairns so she will spend a couple of days there catching up with friends & then she will drive up the hill Thursday arvo to be there when I arrive home.

    Home in time for Christmas.
    Cliff.

    Good news about your wife, Cliff. Drive carefully and patiently - remember it is usually the other idiots being impatient and taking risks that cause the accidents, so be very careful approaching the crest of hills
    regards,
