I took a nap at a hospital and woke up with two wisdom teeth removed. So far so good although I’ll be Mr Puffy face for the next few days, with the next speaking engagement on Tuesday. Ice cream, mashed potatoes and other soft foods are my friend.
I’m really thankful for the care shown by hospital staff; we are very blessed here in some parts of Australia. In the bigger picture, there is still work to be done in bringing comparable services to other parts of our nation, especially with remote and indigenous communities.
I also take confidence that Ku-ring-gai is in good hands. If I am ever out of action, we have a very capable Deputy Mayor who is here to serve our people, and the others councillors are capable of stepping up as well. They’re all great.
Anyway I’ll see you all out and about in the community as soon as I’m fully recovered. See you soon.
