Auckland so far

We arrived in Auckland on wednesday , went straight to Ronald McDonald house to drop our bags off then went up to Starship. Logan had to have more blood tests, before we could see the specialist. That was pretty straight forward.
Thursday we had to be back at 12oclock for blood pressure etc. He went into theatre at 1.30 to have his line put in. Two hours later they took me to recovery to see him. Logan was really groggy which he didnt like, he wanted to wake up fully straight away. He said to the recovery nurse " how much anaestetic did they give me?", She thought that was quite cute. We then had to wait 4 hours before he could leave, they had to make sure there was no bleeding etc.
The line goes in through the jugular vein and gets thread through untill in reaches the top of the heart, he has a bit of bruising and tenderness but other than that he is good.
Friday we had to be back at the hospital for a preadmission check, that also was straight forward.
So thats all the blood tests and checks untill monday when he has to be back in at 9 oclock.
Saturday we had a visit from Kane, Rachael and the kids, we all managed to get tickets to see Walking with Dinosaurs, what a great show.

  2. hi Logan & Jenni, thinking of you. Everyone at school is asking after you and watching your awesome blog with interest. We had Phil's little girl Tilly in here at morning tea today and 2 of MaryLou's little puppies - cute little powder puffs who played on the floor and bit Tilly on the head! Morning Tea has never been so much fun!
    Better get back to work! Lunch was over 10 minutes ago. Love Debbie/Mrs Willson
