A couple of weeks ago, we were invited to afternoon tea with the Governor General of Australia, Ms Quentin Bryce. What a fabulous afternoon we had. Quentin Bryce is just wonderful. Veronika and I had a lovely chat with her. She asked me lots of questions about my journey with Veronika, and asked if I had other children(yes I do, Jordan 9 and Jakob 6).

I guess on reflection, if I didn’t have Veronika, this is something I never would of had the opportunity to do. Met and have afternoon tea with the Governor General. What a privilege to be in company with possibly the most elegant lady in Australia. A lady who, to me was genuinely interested about my journey with Veronika. A lady who congratulated me on the job I was doing, helping Veronika on her journey to health and mobility……a conversation I don’t think I will ever forget.
