A Cut Above

Guy Henry
Several months ago,
my young nephew met a man.
He met Dr Guy Henry.
Lucky!
Dr Guy Henry saved his life.
He cut my nephew open
– twice!
 
 
The second time,
he removed a chunk of cancer cells
from my nephew’s tiny body
 and then, carefully and neatly,
sewed him back together.
What an amazing job he has!
What an incredible thing he does!
Dr Guy Henry is a
specialist Paediatric Surgeon.
He’s been doing this
for over ten years.
I’ve never met Dr Guy Henry,
but I will always be grateful
for what he did…
and how well he did it.
My nephew’s scar is almost healed.
It’s almost perfectly straight.
 
Maybe, in a few years,
we might have trouble
even seeing the scar.
But, each time the sun shines
 the right way
and a glint of scar shines at me,
 I will send a quiet
“thank you”
to Dr Guy Henry.
Apparently, he loves
rugby and fishing –
but rarely has any luck
catching a fish.
I hope he catches
the biggest fish next time
 he drops a line in!

New Beginnings

2012 brought some great things...
but, it was a long, tiring
and often... awful year.
But, it's gone!
 
Welcome 2013!
Here's to smiles, love, laughter
and great health!
Happy New Year!
 
And... in Thai:
สุขสันต์วันปีใหม่นะคะเพื่อนๆ
