Today Kallan had a meeting with one of Dr Stalley's registrar's Dr Will Aston.He wanted to check on Kallan's wound and just to see how he was coping.He said that the wound looks very good and wants him to take it slow with his exercises and movement.There was no results back from pathology as yet and Dr Aston said that it may be another week or so before we know anything.We are no closer to finding out when his next round of chemo will start as Dr Stevens(his oncologist)said they can't start anything untill given the all clear from Dr Stalley.They gave no indication when that will be but said they'd like to see him go home for a while.I'll find out if that's possible tomorrow.
After our meeting we ventured out to visit my cousin Peta in manly.It was a much cooler day so i decided it was a good idea to go the extra long route(that's my story and I'm sticking to it)to Peta's place.Once there we checked out some photos of peta and my uncle Dan's trip to PNG to walk the kekoda trail.It was really quite fascinating viewing and i would love to do it someday.Then it was downstairs for some serious air hockey matches where kal beat shay then shay had a lucky win against me.Kal and Peta fought out the final played under house rules(Peta's house,Peta's rules subject to change at any time).In a thrilling finale' it was Peta winning 9-8 but Kallan has vowed redemption next time round.After a very enjoyable day i thought it was such a good day for driving that i would again try a very different route home.I think it's important to explore every possible way to get from here to there just in case you find yourself in an unusual location(believe that and you'll believe anything).When we arrived home the house had put on a big bbq for everyone which went down very well.

Darren, Darren, Darren - I can just imagine the adventures you went on travelling to Peta's place. How funny. We had a good laugh at that one.
Love Al
Ha ha ha Darren! You don't fool me with your tourist route story! It's a good one though!! Very amusing. You're doing a fantastic job on the blog, by the way. It's really good to hear that you're all having some good times out of the ward. We were thinking of coming down today but if you're coming home - maybe not such a great idea. Will give you a ring.

Hey Dash It - you forgot to add the bit about me having to come and lead the sheep home. I didn't know you got lost on the way home as well:-).
Hope I see you again for a re-match soon.
