My family has a history of clogged arteries which despite being a virtuous non smoker I have been unable to escape.
So I ended up Saturday morning at Auckland Hospital for an angioplasty and a few stents. Procedure went well and I’m hassling the doctor to let me go home. Hopefully tomorrow and after a few days of working from home, I’ll be back at work.
A big thanks first to doctors, nurses and staff. They been really great, both professional and caring. They are a wonderful cross section of multicultural Auckland. It’s fantastic that in our country people get the urgent treatment they need and according to that need and not ability to pay.
Thanks also for the kind messages from so many people. Heartfelt appreciation!
The painting was done by my lovely granddaughter Brooklyn.
