Steve's surprise

It was Easter Monday that Steve received a big surprise.

The surprise had been in the making since the beginning of the year when Harold and Josie visited us at Maslins Beach. 

Aware that Steve would have no energy to do any outdoor gardening, they thought it would be a great idea to organise some sort of working bee to help him out.

They left that day with an idea which in time became a well crafted plan that included hairdressing industry, family and friends.

It became the most well hidden secret. Ongoing coordination by Harold and Josie over the months resulted in a 'master piece!'.

It was the landscape design and work of Cameron Polgreen Contractors who eventually transformed a piece of dirt into an amazing garden sanctuary.

A permanent memory of the love from his family, friends and colleagues now exists close to his heart.

A small gathering of family and those involved in the planning were there to witness the wonderful moment when Steve arrived at his ‘Garden of Wellbeing’ (aptly named by Harold).

It was an amazing effort by Harold, Josie, Shannon and all others involved to create another uplifting moment for Steve during this tough period of his life.

Steve was overwhelmed by it all – as you would imagine...

Lucky it was a ‘small affair’ on Easter Monday – unlike the full attendance of all contributors planned for the week prior but cancelled due to Steve’s health.

He would have been really ‘blown away!’ (not sure if that would have been too good for him at this point!)

So the last few days he’s found some energy to potter in his garden and enjoy the plants and beautiful weather.

Another ingredient I’m sure for healing and wellbeing.

His health has picked up a bit more now – just in time for round 5 on Monday.

Fingers crossed that he has a smooth run...

Once again thanks everyone for your ongoing communication, calls and emails - they truly do lighten his spirit...
