Cant sleep
Cant sleep its 4.30am lots going on at moment, global womens summit next week speach to sort out, GYNae day sorting out, Telstra award interview next month, new baby grandson arrived this week in UK, finding funding to present at Aboriginal womens group in country all very exciting but keeping organised is the biggest challenge. Plus my 83 yo mother needs attention also. etc etc. So having got that out of my head I will turn off the light and go back to sleep. Good health to all. Kath

Completed 3 day Landmark Education course
Hi Everyone had a full on intensive 3 days but what I gain ed was fantastic. It showed me I have to move on with my life, being more positive proactive and leaving my past baggage behind. Thanks to Landmark I plan to do the next level so I can find more ways to promote the International GYN Awareness Day. Wish me luck. Look out here I come.
Thanks to all who support the cause.
WA Nursing Gyn presentation/donation this week
Hi to all, I am to present and pick up a cheque from a nursing assoc. for GAIN this weekend. It is at their xmas party so how does one talk gynaecology at a Christmas lunch.
I heard a woman telling funny poems about women as they age and their bodies – she was very funny. I am now realising that people dont want gynaecology in their face – too hard so I need to find a way to put humour in my speeches. My homework for this week. Wish me luck.

Kath to be featured in Finally at 40 Magazine
Kath will be featured in the Autumm Edition (due out in March 2010) of the popular national Women’s Magazine, Finally at 40.
An excerpt from the article…
“…Imagine if you will, doctors, nurses, women, men, politicians, public servants or other community representatives, all sitting across the table, enjoying a cuppa, sharing a scone and their experiences and knowledge. Asking questions, allaying fears, uncovering misconceptions, dispelling stigmas and normalising sexual health. This is the progress I would like to see in my lifetime and I can gratefully say, I am seeing before my eyes. It’s been fifteen years of hard work but I’m so excited to see the shift finally happening.”
