Jack survived Schoolies week and got his VCE results on Friday morning at 7a.m. He did well, getting all B's so now has to decide what he wants to do next.
Chris's operation went well, although he did faint afterwards on the operating table. Theoretically this should not have happened because they had eliminated the pathway that was causing the problem. So, on Friday, he had a stress test, which involved being wired up to a running machine and being put through his paces. I am glad to say that his ECG came back as being normal, so he will just have to see if the blackouts re-occur when he starts running again.
Sam and Will finished school yesterday and can now look forward to a 7 week Summer holiday. Today, Sam took two of his friends (Harry and Aaran) on the helicopter flight that Chris had arranged for the "One Year in Oz" party back in August. The flight took 20 minutes and flew all over the sights of Melbourne, as you can see on the Flickr fotos to the right. They all said it was awesome!
Granny and Grandad arrive early on Monday morning and this time next week it will be Christmas Eve.
HAPPY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!!!!
Well done Jack on your results :-) Photos of helicopter ride look amazing - very brave Sam! Cant believe the boys have finished for long summer holiday! Girls have finished for 2 weeks but Jess will be revising as exams all start in January and only 6 months left at secondary school. She has had interview for Peter Symonds and waiting for iv for Barton.
