Goodbye Kira

 


Trelawnyd Productions loses its director this week for Kira leaves the village to return back to her native love, her home country of Canada. Only recently has she put down some connections with us locals and I hope we have all been welcoming in our joint venture of the Christmas show , which was such a success only a few months ago now.

We had planned a leaving do for her tonight, which I had to bow out of for obvious reasons, so I wanted to give her a little token of our appreciation, something that would mean something but something she could carry easily in transatlantic luggage 

So I chose three things. A centenary cup depicting the Memorial Hall, a copy of a 1950’s photo of the village and a hand drawn child’s drawing of the hall itself donated to me from a flower show some years ago, The  hall is the building we all want to save for future generations, and was one that received a nice donation from Trelawnyd Productions from a review Kira worked so hard to support. 

Bon Voyage Kira,

Be happy

  1. I'm sure Kira will remember her time in Trelawnyd with great fondness. I'm sure there will be many tears at her leaving do. The gifts (I'm sure there will be many others) will bring back fond memories for her.
    How are you feeling today? A little less uncomfortable, I hope and getting used to things. I'm glad you're finally getting sorted, albeit slowly. Hugs. xx

  2. Those are great gifts for her. How nice that she had a good impact on your village.
    Sorry to hear you are still suffering with the catheter. It's good that as a nurse you know what to do to help yourself. Hope it is all cleared up soon, John. xo

  3. I go away for two nights and all hell breaks loose here. I'm glad you got sorted our with regards to your urinary retention. I've had patients that needed to go to the OR to have their catheters inserted due to the pain. I don't know why they didn't use topical anesthetic the first time, but glad they did the second time.
    I know you've had an ongoing problem with bladder infections. Did they cause strictures? Not my business, but I am a nosey nurse:)
    I can't imagine it's easy to get used to have a long term catheter. Can they do anything else to deal with the retention?
    Sending hugs sweetie.

    What perfect gifts to give Kira as wonderful mementos of her cherished time in Trelawnyd and that she will certainly be missed. Sorry you cannot be there, but you're excused!

    Hugs!
