Hello Gabriele,

My brother is in Perth and I am on the Central Coast of NSW, but I have spent 3 weeks with him and his family returning home 6 weeks ago. Another sister is in Perth now for 3-4 weeks helping out.

What was your treatment, Gabe? From your signature you seem to have had a very torrid time. I hope you are well at the moment.

I wonder if anyone on the forum is from Perth?
