27 - 31 October 2008
Jess and I spent the last week, doing the last shopping, seeing friends and my turn to see doctors....the week went very quickly but included having Dinner with Julie and Andi, Taryn and Jason on Monday night; A talk on Cyprus and dinner with Mags on Tuesday night; Wednesday Aline took me to the Westcliff for afternoon Tea, such a treat and then we had dinner at Les and Paul with the family and the Lairds!!; Thursday was a quiet night at home with Les and Paul and spent packing and lastly I sorted out the bills with the hospital and spent the morning with Aline saying goodbye....it was a sad day, but I also realised how much I missed my family, and the feeling of being safe in Qatar. I was forever watching my back, hanging on to my bag and had a constant feeling of being unsafe. Jessica also got to spend time at St Teresa's with her class on Tuesday and Thursday and loved every minute of it. We visited Betty again and also got to see Belinda and Acacia & Barbara, Kevin and Jen...
