Sorry it has been a while since my last post - things here at home have gone a bit crazy! The tests I had in Singapore showed that I need an operation but our heath insurace have decided they won't pay for it or cover me any more so mummy and daddy and I moved back to NZ - we had 3 weeks to sort everything out, say goodbyes etc. so things were quite hectic. We all have mixed feelings about leaving Vietnam - mummy and Jonathan are not enjoying the cold of winter however all four of us love being back to the land of yoghurt (amongst other things). We miss our friends, ourr apartment (and the pool) and I miss my school and being at school! Mummy has waitlisted me for three places here but so far no result. One of them has promised me a place in early September tho.
The nice doctors in NZ saw me as soon as we got home and then I had more tests (not nice as I had to have a catheter and IV line put in). We found out that I had a blockage on my urether where it exits the kidney so I had an op in mid may. I had to spend two nights in hospital and had a general anasthetic but I was very brave and the nurses all told me I coped very well. After 6 weeks I had a second op - a day procedure this time (but still with a general anasthetic). A few days later I got a UTI so was back in hospital for another 4 nights but I am all good now. I have to have MORE tests in early august and after that the doctors will decide if I need another op to deal with my reflux. I think all this has been harder for mummy and daddy than for me!
Jonathan has just turned 1, is cruising round the furniture and is starting to feed himself. Daddy has a new job which he really enjoys. Jonathan is having a party this weekend so we'll post some pictures after that so you can share in the celebrations.
