The sling is slung!



The sling is slung and the blogger is back! We visited Dr. Martinez yesterday at Clinica International and received a very positive report - only use the sling when travelling on local transport for the next few weeks, begin a light exercise program with Margot and report back to the good Doctor in one month. Using the sling on buses is a great idea because it seems to draw great sympathy from the locals - and an immediate offer of a seat. However, it does not seem to have much effect on the driver, you still only get the absolute minimum of time to 'adelante' and 'bajar' - get on and get off - before rapid acceleration takes place!

Tomorrow all the Aussie and Kiwi Columban priests and sisters are gathering for an ANZAC Bar-B-Q at Fr. Peter Woodruff's place at Huandoy, Marion and I made the guest list. Hopefully all the proceedings will figure in my next edition.
