The best Fathers Day gift

Gemma Elizabeth from Hutt Valley District Health Board

"My name is Kelsey.

I am an ED nurse on maternity leave.

My husband, Jason, and I recently had our first baby, a little girl, which we named Heidi.

Our daughter was born on 2 September via emergency caesarean.

We wanted to say a big thank you to everyone who was involved in both mine and Heidi's care.

Heidi spent five days in SCBU with neonatal sepsis. She had amazing around-the-clock care from some spectacular nurses.

A special mention to the staff member who calmed Jason, a very nervous new dad, while Heidi had her IV inserted.

Also, a big thank you to the staff who helped establish breastfeeding and gave me so much confidence. The staff showed amazing empathy and communication.

Jason was able to take us both home on Father's Day - which was the best gift he could've hoped for." - Kelsey

Stamps wanted

Marty from Johnsonville

I run a Stamp club at Tawa School to encourage children to collect stamps and learn about countries, history and more. Unfortunately new stamps aren't often seen these days as it's all electronic! If you have any stamps or old collections sitting around, let me know and I'll come and get them.
