Delma and Wes visiting Mark in Tweed Heads Hospital.
Mark's heart specialist last Monday (with Wes) saw him sent to hospital.
His heart in not pumping as it should -outcome - fluid in lungs, tummy
(bloated), legs and feet - the legs and feet release the fluid - very
painful feet. Legs need dressing every day - soaking wet. Given fresh
dietary, Mark home on Frid later afternoon under authority. Delma might
be little, but a mountain of woman.

Table Tennis Table was donated to CYC Burleigh for their
youth camp. It originated in Moruya Basil Sellers House - Timeout in
Moruya where the Chinese AIS Gymnast coaches challenged Mark (chaplain) -
1980 Shell Australia Table Tennis title. It came with us to Tweed Heads
15 years ago. With the new prayer room it was folded up. I caught up
with Andrew Grant CYC Burleigh at church (Living Temple Christian Church
- Tugun Baptist) offering it (youth camp). It was snapped up and
collected. Table Tennis is a favourite in both Delma's and my families,
we both grew up on table tennis. Anthea in Sydney continues the family
tradition with a table.

Visiting the new Prayer Room at Timeout in the Tweed statistician for the young writers John
Grocott and the Rev Ben Kruzins a young writer for Christian Today
Australia and UK Christian Today. John / Ben visit Frid mornings to
ensure Mark gets a break from his hectic schedule, watch a DVD - mostly
military movies. After the DVD last Frid morning John and Ben agreed to
have their photo taken at the entrance of the prayer room - constructed
a week previously. A wall was constructed with an open entrance, the
crimson thick heavy curtain Delma sewed 14 years ago for the art studio
was relocated to the Prayer Room.
