Vaccinations and Underlying conditions

Avinesh from Ranui

Firstly let's do our part and stay home, stay safe and get vaccinated IF and WHEN you can. I say IF, because there are some of us in the community that have certain underlying conditions that possibly could suffer a potential relapse from the vaccine. Now, I am not saying I am an expert or have the abundance of knowledge as the experts, however if you have an underlying condition that could potentially affect your health post vaccine, please do consult your specialist. I only say it based on personal experience where I suffer from nephrotic syndrome, have been in remission and off medication for past 5 years. Had my first jab back in July and in 8 days suffered a relapse to the higher end of the condition. Upon some research, obviously overseas based especially in the UK and States, it is found that the pfizer could cause relapses of nephrotic syndrome. So, if you have kidney conditions do speak to your specialist. I could be a special case, but who knows maybe this information could help you from not going back to square one in your journey to recovery. Stay safe

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
