Jamie’s Surgery: Day 4

Evening cell update: We’re still in ICU with Jamie, but just to say that more tubes are out, and he’s looking more comfortable. He’s off the morphine – just antibiotics now through his neck tube. He was back on the oxygen this morning after his forced removal of last night, albeit mainly for protocol’s sake. We’ve just come from the Waterfront after wandering around for an hour looking for something we actually felt like eating. So we’ll be here for a while, watching NZ wipe us out, and I’ll put some pictures and more info up once home.

Having returned home, we can say that he’s doing nicely. Again, sleep beckons, and I don’t think it’s worth staying up for the cricket, so shouldn’t be long now. As an aside, I decided I needed to pick a new driver this year for F1 since Montoya’s exit, and opted to support the fresh-from-GP2 sensation, Lewis Hamilton. Seems to have been a prudent choice, and it’s nice to see some competition at the sharp end of the grid. Hopefully I get to find a telly showing the race tomorrow…
