Just had notification from my Doctors surgery- both GPs have resigned from 15th July - burned out unable to guarantee patient safety - the visas of their 2 overseas practice nurses werent renewed 18 months ago and they have been unable to replace them - hours and hours of admin stuff has had to be completed for the health restructuring on top of caring for their patients - I only go for my flu shot and ring every three months for my script repeats - they were brilliant when my husband was receiving palliative care .No doctors in Napier are taking new patients so thatÔÇÖs a bit of a pickle
I couldnÔÇÖt wear my gold wedding band or engagement ring - developed an allergy to gold so had a silver ring made and put my gold rings in a box - when Robie got engaged I gave him my rings and told him to get them remodeled- all my jewellery was stolen and never recovered the following year I was thankful Robie had the rings .We all fought over Dads wedding ring - not seriously - but I think it was the only thing we had to draw out of a hat to see who won - of course the golden child my brother won - I think my Mum put his name on all the bits of paper !
Have left over Thai takeaway for tea tonight - it always tastes better the next 
Jan Central Medical in Marewa are taking new patients. You might need to hurry though as there could be quite a few people looking for a new Doctor
