Hi everyone,

 

With February half over I thought I would include March in the next group.  I have lived in Bathurst NSW since 1999.  When we first moved here I was a bit in awe of the living in the same town where we have so much Australian History. Bathurst being the first inland city in Australia.  I have developed a deep respect for what this means for our town, the need to preserve history, heal deep divides in the community which have separated people of our town.  I felt like I kind of understood the need for healing and need for preservation which our town has presented us with. These photos are from a park called "Peace Park" on the banks of the Macquarie River.

Hi everyone,

 

Last week I travelled down to Sydney to catch up with the crew at Synapse Reconnections (Brain Injury Support Group), we have a lovely morning strolling around the Sydney Botanical Gardens. It was great to meet up with people I talk with over safe social media!

 

Hi Sue, 

 

How lucky to have the opportunity to meet others who are different times of their journies. This is something that I would love to have, that is, have a cup of coffee with others and share your thoughts and ideas. 

 

I have lost a lot of my Japanese language skills and conversation confidence, so it would be nearly impossible to have a 'survivor coffee club.' Bummer. 

 

It looked like a good day to check out gardens, flowers, and plants. 

 

Best, 

 

Marcus

 

 

 

 

Hi Marcus,

 

It was a great day and I so hear you about the getting together with others.  It was 7 years until I found group support and oh boy did I feel like I found what I had needed.  And I had to move towns, move states for me to find it!   What sort of after care support does the hospital system offer?  Or is this still all in Japanese?

 

I wonder with the development of EnableMe into the future if real time video links will be able to be accessed.  I'd  enjoy having a cuppa with you Marcus! I I like to dream big, it helped lead me to where I am today.
