The sleeping dog, never supposed to be allowed inside the door but got further and further in each day to sleep in strange positions!
I've just moved out of the one-room in Banana with Simon, bringing the whole chapter to a close... I really haven't been one for commitment!
So, now I'm living back on school grounds but still spending most of my time with Alfan in hospital. I moved him to a private hospital which I will somehow pay for, as I discovered that he was receiving the wrong treatment... despite my many appointments and consultations and investigations to make sure it was all right!
I took him to a visiting specialist on Saturday and had another x-ray and things hadn't improved as well as they should have (due to the wrong weight in traction) so I moved him and things improved overnight!
I have just found out about my IMPOSSIBLE ticket:
For the last few weeks I have been told again and again that my only option was to leave here on the 17th Dec, spend a useless (and expensive) week in Thailand before leaving on Christmas Day to get to Sydney on 26th.
I asked just one more time to changed (I've asked over 20 times since May) and now at lease I can have that extra week here with friends instead of somewhere in limbo. I still won't get to Sydney until 26th but I'm much happier. It won't cost as much either.
So, Christmas on planes and in airports! They had better give me champagne!
