Hi Jo

I having my radiotherapy at Charlie Gardiner and staying at Crawford Lodge.

I live in Port Denison/Dongara 65klms south of Geraldton.  it is a lovely spot.

I hope you do heal very quickly and your infection clears up with the antibiotics, if not maybe suggest they try different one which worked for me :-)  until it decided to return months later.........

Maybe we can catch up for a coffee
