After a tough end to 2016 personally, 2017 has not exactly been great either so far.
My Dad had sudden bowel surgery yesterday, and during surgery found other complications that likely would have mean death in near future if not picked up as it by chance was.
Dad is in ICU and sure the recovery will be much longer due to the extensive surgery, but Dad and us have been very lucky in the circumstances.
The ICU staff and Dr who performed the work at Calvary have been outstanding. They deserve a massive thank you for their fantastic work.

As for events in Bourke St yesterday, Mrs Toes was affected and my old man was almost hit by the car on the corner of Bourke and Elizabeth. Mrs Toes' work is right where the whole thing came to a close, where the shots were fired, and they had dozens of people charging into their store screaming out "shots fired, run to the back" etc.
She was a mess last night. The old man couldn't believe how lucky he was, having jumped clear of the car on the footpath and witnessing others less able to jump clear get struck.
Luckily for me I'm still on hols as I could easily have been amongst that crap any other work day at that time.
What a crazy world it is FFS!
