December 2011 - more sad news - this time about Gumpa

We thought life had pretty much returned to normal as Dunc was getting used to his new look and getting on with life. Then the next bombshell hit us. Dad was told he had a very rare form of lymphoma called Burkitt's Lymphoma. The plan for him and Gummy to travel around New Zealand and then spend six weeks with us obviously had to be cancelled and before we knew it Dad was admitted to the Royal Free Hospital (just up the road from their house fortunately) to start his treatment. I made a quick decision to fly over there with Iona and Arthur in January. Counting the days to see him.
