Feeling Confl ictedEveryone has experienced a confl ict

with another person Even if it was one of those thatrsquos never been spoken about in the open itrsquos still a confl ict And not all confl ict is bad there are just bad ways of dealing with confl ict

So how do we deal well with confl ict The fi rst step is to deal with the right

person Talk to the person you have a problem with Gossiping to someone else about it or asking them to speak on your behalf will never improve the situation only make it worse

The next step is to listen and ask questions rather than jumping to conclusions In my experience many disagreements could have been defused if the person hearing what sounded like an attack could have just stopped asked for clarifi cation of what was being said and realised it wasnrsquot what they fi rst thought

Not all confl icts are that straightforward of course Some will produce a great deal of hurt and pain even loss But whatever the scale we then have a choice to make A common response is to lsquopay backrsquo the pain we feel An alternative response is to off er forgiveness Thatrsquos not to say the hurt isnrsquot very real and forgiveness very costly for the person who off ers it We canrsquot control other people but we can choose how we act ourselves Which path will you choose

When Jesus broke into the world he brought forgiveness at great cost The cost was so great his death on the cross that it highlighted how great was the confl ict And yet it is forgiveness that he off ers us For those of us who have experienced that forgiveness we are freed to deal with confl ict in a way that serves and forgives others

Preschool

How are you settling into the new-ish yearWith the kids back at preprimaryhigh school itrsquos onto

sizzling routines packing lunch boxes (sigh) washing school clothes class information nights notes from school and lots of organising Itrsquos full-on isnrsquot it

Sometimes with all of this lsquodoingrsquo we forget about lsquobeingrsquo with our kids

When do you make the time to just lsquobersquo with your kids Time thatrsquos free of distractions where you lsquohang-outrsquo and enjoy each otherrsquos company where there is space for them to talk about what matters to them (the big stuff and little stuff ) and where you LISTEN

Some parents say their kids wonrsquot talk to them or they canrsquot get past the one word answers like lsquogoodrsquo lsquonothingrsquo lsquonowherersquo and lsquonobodyrsquo I ask those parents if they make the time and if they do then do they shut-up Kids clam up when parents pressure kids for answers jump in and off er advice rouse on them for getting things wrong when theyrsquove had a go Kids are actually very smart and they can be supported to generate their own solutions to their problems ndash yes even really little kids

I have spaces in the day where I am ldquowithrdquo my kids and fi ll it with my silence and my presence ndash the walk home from school afternoon tea a snuggle on the lounge one-on-one time with each of the kids even if it is just grocery shopping Silence is one of my favourite parenting tools but with the silence comes my openness and willingness to listen and use refl ection when my kids talk (for more information about this go to the ldquoRefl ective Listeningrdquo post at handsheartsmindswordpresscom)

I recently asked a group of parents the qualities they value in a friend They said someone who

bull is non-judgementalbull listens listens listensbull doesnrsquot bombard you with advicebull doesnrsquot blab on about their own stuff or lecturebull you can trustbull caresYou are not your childrsquos friend but your role as a parent should

St Patrickrsquos Day is observed on March 17 because that is the feast day of St Patrick the patron saint of Ireland It is believed that he died on March 17 in the year 461 AD It is also a worldwide celebration of Irish culture and history St Patrickrsquos Day is a national holiday in Ireland and a provincial holiday in the Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador

The actual colour of St Patrick is blue Green became associated with St Patricks Day during the 19th century Green in Irish legends was worn by fairies and immortals and also by people to encourage their crops to grow

Shamrocks are worn on the lapel on this day

In Ireland on St Patrickrsquos Day people traditionally wear a small bunch of shamrocks on their jackets or caps Children wear orange white and green badges and women and girls wear green ribbons in their hair

Many young people dye their hair green for the special day

Many people wear green on this holiday to avoid being pinched

Costa Rican TarrazuIn many peoplersquos opinion Costa Rican Tarrazu is one of

the worldrsquos greatest coff ees It has a light clean fl avour and a wonderful fragranceDescription

Costa Rica with its rich well-drained volcanic soil was the fi rst Central American country to grow coff ee and bananas on a commercial basis and both commodities are among its major exports Coff ee was introduced into Costa Rica from Cuba in 1729 and today the industry is one of the best organised in the world

The best Costa Rican coff ee is labelled ldquoSHBrdquo (Strictly Hard Bean ) which means that it has been grown at an altitude above 5000 feet (1500 metres)

Higher altitudes produce better beans because it produces a higher acidity in the bean and also because the colder nights and regular rainfall at these high altitudes cause the beans to mature much slower Both these two aspects create a fuller fl avour

Panic AttacksIf you have ever experienced a panic attack or witnessed

someone having one you will know it can be a very frightening experience

Panic attacks are periods of intense fear or apprehension that come on suddenly They are surprisingly common varying in intensity and duration from minutes to hours

Signs and symptoms of a panic attack include bull A sense of overwhelming amp seemingly uncontrollable

panic fear or anxietybull The thought that you are dying or lsquolosing controlrsquo or

lsquogoing madrsquobull Increased heart rate often feeling like a heart attackbull Diffi culty breathing (feeling that there is not enough

air)bull Excessive perspirationbull Dizziness light-headedness or feeling faintTriggers for panic attacks - basically any fear can trigger a

panic attack ndash the memory of a traumatic experience and the thought that it could re-occur fear of heights amp falling spiders needles fl ying getting lost etc

As an onlooker what can you do Stay calm and assure the person that they are safe Speak gently but assertively and positively amp get some help if necessary If the person is in any danger encourage them to move to a safe area

What can be done to prevent them By working with a therapist to address the underlying fear the severity and frequency of panic attacks can be greatly reduced if not avoided EFT is eff ective safe amp noninvasive and is gaining world-wide recognition for helping people eliminate their fears

Starting a FamilyStarting a family is obviously a huge

moment in a personrsquos life but it is also a time where seeking fi nancial advice is highly recommended

When starting a family the income and expenditure requirements change

immensely Although initial expenses donrsquot grow substantially as children grow older they account for more and more of the family budget This is especially if full time child care or private school fees are involved

The biggest change for most couples is going to a single income for a period of time At the risk of generalising most modern couples are duel income at least before they start having children and their lifestyle becomes reliant on both these incomes

Preparing for living on one income presents some challenges The most eff ective way to prepare for this is to reduce fi nancial commitments leading into having a family This may involve reducing debts cutting some lifestyle costs or building wealth in advance to prepare for reduced income

This reduced income due to time off work whether it is a matter of months or more long term may open opportunities not normally available There are strategies that are income tested Whilst working full time you or your partner may be unlikely to qualify for this however earning a reduced income becomes a viable option

The Government Co-Contribution is an incentive for low income earners to contribute to Superannuation The Co-

Contribution sees the government match contributions up to $500 for those who earn less than $31920 The maximum Co-Contribution reduces for amounts over this phasing out at $48516 Those that have the funds to make this contribution eff ectively double their investment instantly For many this period where income is reduced is the only opportunity they have to qualify for a Co-Contribution

The Spouse Rebate is another incentive by the government for low income earners to contribute to Superannuation Those who make after tax contributions to their spousersquos Superannuation fund can be entitled to an 18 tax rebate

The maximum contribution for this rebate is $3000 for those earning less than $10800 This maximum reduces for those earning more with the rebate phasing out at $13800 Again the time off work whilst starting a family may be the only time many qualify for this rebate

The most pressing fi nancial planning matter surrounds insurance Although many see insurance as a ldquodirty wordrdquo there is no point in a couplersquos life that they are so fi nancial reliant on each other and the death or disablement of one member of the couple has the potential to fi nancial ruin a family

With a young family if the working spouse was unable to work for as little as a few months with no income coming in at all most families would be in fi nancial hardship

There are a number of insurance options and strategies that can avoid this fi nancial risk

For more information on these strategies and other life events please view our website wwwfuturefi nancialservicescomau

Camillersquos PetsI am so lucky that I can take my dogs to

work with me every day They sleep behind the front reception desk and pop up occasionally to say hello to the customers

Bella is my 13 year old kelpie She had a slight cough for 3 weeks and had chest radiographs and a heart ultrasound performed

Bella was diagnosed with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) a heart disease which causes the heart muscle to lose its ability to contract As the heart is not pumping blood forward eff ectively the blood backs up and causes fl uid to build up in the chest which Bella was then coughing up Bella was started on heart medications and the cough has reduced and she is as happy as ever

The usual outcome for DCM is only a few months and Bella is now in her 7th month

Each day I have with my best friend Bella is a gift

Pony is my Great Dane x Bull Mastiff He is coming up to 3 years of age and he is still stubborn as a mule I was kind of looking for a new dog to keep Pony company when Bella passes away when I

found a new dog at Hawkesbury Pound in October 2013

My new dogs name is Callie she is 15 years of age and is a Great Dane x Italian Greyhound according to the DNA test I had performed Callie is 45kg and looks a lot like Pony except she is a brown harlequin colour I only had Callie for about 1 week before she became unwell She had a fever and she was very quiet Blood tests and ultrasound did not reveal the cause of her illness I sent Callie to see the specialists at SASH at North Ryde where they performed a spinal tap to obtain a sample of her spinal fl uid The spinal fl uid was tested and was negative for bacteria protozoa and fungi Callie was diagnosed with Steroid Responsive Meningitis-Arteritis (SRMA) which is an autoimmune disease which attacks the central nervous

system Thankfully SRMA is treatable Callie was started on a 6 month course of corticosteroids and she was back to normal within 1 week Callie ate and drank like a horse whilst on the corticosteroids which is a normal side eff ect of this drug Callie was weaned off the corticosteroids and thankfully has had no relapse of the meningitis

Bella still runs my household and Pony and Callie are like 2 peas in a pod Every day I have Bella is a blessing and even though I have had time to prepare I will never be ready for the day when Bella passes away

I also have 3 cats and 2 pet sheep but they donrsquot come to work with me

Check out our website for more information wwworchardhillsvetcomau or join us on Facebook

We look forward to meeting you and your pets at Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital and please feel free to pop in anytime and meet the team

Feeling Confl ictedEveryone has experienced a confl ict

with another person Even if it was one of those thatrsquos never been spoken about in the open itrsquos still a confl ict And not all confl ict is bad there are just bad ways of dealing with confl ict

So how do we deal well with confl ict The fi rst step is to deal with the right

person Talk to the person you have a problem with Gossiping to someone else about it or asking them to speak on your behalf will never improve the situation only make it worse

The next step is to listen and ask questions rather than jumping to conclusions In my experience many disagreements could have been defused if the person hearing what sounded like an attack could have just stopped asked for clarifi cation of what was being said and realised it wasnrsquot what they fi rst thought

Not all confl icts are that straightforward of course Some will produce a great deal of hurt and pain even loss But whatever the scale we then have a choice to make A common response is to lsquopay backrsquo the pain we feel An alternative response is to off er forgiveness Thatrsquos not to say the hurt isnrsquot very real and forgiveness very costly for the person who off ers it We canrsquot control other people but we can choose how we act ourselves Which path will you choose

When Jesus broke into the world he brought forgiveness at great cost The cost was so great his death on the cross that it highlighted how great was the confl ict And yet it is forgiveness that he off ers us For those of us who have experienced that forgiveness we are freed to deal with confl ict in a way that serves and forgives others

Preschool

How are you settling into the new-ish yearWith the kids back at preprimaryhigh school itrsquos onto

sizzling routines packing lunch boxes (sigh) washing school clothes class information nights notes from school and lots of organising Itrsquos full-on isnrsquot it

Sometimes with all of this lsquodoingrsquo we forget about lsquobeingrsquo with our kids

When do you make the time to just lsquobersquo with your kids Time thatrsquos free of distractions where you lsquohang-outrsquo and enjoy each otherrsquos company where there is space for them to talk about what matters to them (the big stuff and little stuff ) and where you LISTEN

Some parents say their kids wonrsquot talk to them or they canrsquot get past the one word answers like lsquogoodrsquo lsquonothingrsquo lsquonowherersquo and lsquonobodyrsquo I ask those parents if they make the time and if they do then do they shut-up Kids clam up when parents pressure kids for answers jump in and off er advice rouse on them for getting things wrong when theyrsquove had a go Kids are actually very smart and they can be supported to generate their own solutions to their problems ndash yes even really little kids

I have spaces in the day where I am ldquowithrdquo my kids and fi ll it with my silence and my presence ndash the walk home from school afternoon tea a snuggle on the lounge one-on-one time with each of the kids even if it is just grocery shopping Silence is one of my favourite parenting tools but with the silence comes my openness and willingness to listen and use refl ection when my kids talk (for more information about this go to the ldquoRefl ective Listeningrdquo post at handsheartsmindswordpresscom)

I recently asked a group of parents the qualities they value in a friend They said someone who

bull is non-judgementalbull listens listens listensbull doesnrsquot bombard you with advicebull doesnrsquot blab on about their own stuff or lecturebull you can trustbull caresYou are not your childrsquos friend but your role as a parent should

St Patrickrsquos Day is observed on March 17 because that is the feast day of St Patrick the patron saint of Ireland It is believed that he died on March 17 in the year 461 AD It is also a worldwide celebration of Irish culture and history St Patrickrsquos Day is a national holiday in Ireland and a provincial holiday in the Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador

The actual colour of St Patrick is blue Green became associated with St Patricks Day during the 19th century Green in Irish legends was worn by fairies and immortals and also by people to encourage their crops to grow

Shamrocks are worn on the lapel on this day

In Ireland on St Patrickrsquos Day people traditionally wear a small bunch of shamrocks on their jackets or caps Children wear orange white and green badges and women and girls wear green ribbons in their hair

Many young people dye their hair green for the special day

Many people wear green on this holiday to avoid being pinched

Costa Rican TarrazuIn many peoplersquos opinion Costa Rican Tarrazu is one of

the worldrsquos greatest coff ees It has a light clean fl avour and a wonderful fragranceDescription

Costa Rica with its rich well-drained volcanic soil was the fi rst Central American country to grow coff ee and bananas on a commercial basis and both commodities are among its major exports Coff ee was introduced into Costa Rica from Cuba in 1729 and today the industry is one of the best organised in the world

The best Costa Rican coff ee is labelled ldquoSHBrdquo (Strictly Hard Bean ) which means that it has been grown at an altitude above 5000 feet (1500 metres)

Higher altitudes produce better beans because it produces a higher acidity in the bean and also because the colder nights and regular rainfall at these high altitudes cause the beans to mature much slower Both these two aspects create a fuller fl avour

someone having one you will know it can be a very frightening experience

Panic attacks are periods of intense fear or apprehension that come on suddenly They are surprisingly common varying in intensity and duration from minutes to hours

Signs and symptoms of a panic attack include bull A sense of overwhelming amp seemingly uncontrollable

panic fear or anxietybull The thought that you are dying or lsquolosing controlrsquo or

lsquogoing madrsquobull Increased heart rate often feeling like a heart attackbull Diffi culty breathing (feeling that there is not enough

air)bull Excessive perspirationbull Dizziness light-headedness or feeling faintTriggers for panic attacks - basically any fear can trigger a

panic attack ndash the memory of a traumatic experience and the thought that it could re-occur fear of heights amp falling spiders needles fl ying getting lost etc

As an onlooker what can you do Stay calm and assure the person that they are safe Speak gently but assertively and positively amp get some help if necessary If the person is in any danger encourage them to move to a safe area

What can be done to prevent them By working with a therapist to address the underlying fear the severity and frequency of panic attacks can be greatly reduced if not avoided EFT is eff ective safe amp noninvasive and is gaining world-wide recognition for helping people eliminate their fears

Starting a FamilyStarting a family is obviously a huge

moment in a personrsquos life but it is also a time where seeking fi nancial advice is highly recommended

When starting a family the income and expenditure requirements change

immensely Although initial expenses donrsquot grow substantially as children grow older they account for more and more of the family budget This is especially if full time child care or private school fees are involved

The biggest change for most couples is going to a single income for a period of time At the risk of generalising most modern couples are duel income at least before they start having children and their lifestyle becomes reliant on both these incomes

Preparing for living on one income presents some challenges The most eff ective way to prepare for this is to reduce fi nancial commitments leading into having a family This may involve reducing debts cutting some lifestyle costs or building wealth in advance to prepare for reduced income

This reduced income due to time off work whether it is a matter of months or more long term may open opportunities not normally available There are strategies that are income tested Whilst working full time you or your partner may be unlikely to qualify for this however earning a reduced income becomes a viable option

The Government Co-Contribution is an incentive for low income earners to contribute to Superannuation The Co-

Contribution sees the government match contributions up to $500 for those who earn less than $31920 The maximum Co-Contribution reduces for amounts over this phasing out at $48516 Those that have the funds to make this contribution eff ectively double their investment instantly For many this period where income is reduced is the only opportunity they have to qualify for a Co-Contribution

The Spouse Rebate is another incentive by the government for low income earners to contribute to Superannuation Those who make after tax contributions to their spousersquos Superannuation fund can be entitled to an 18 tax rebate

The maximum contribution for this rebate is $3000 for those earning less than $10800 This maximum reduces for those earning more with the rebate phasing out at $13800 Again the time off work whilst starting a family may be the only time many qualify for this rebate

The most pressing fi nancial planning matter surrounds insurance Although many see insurance as a ldquodirty wordrdquo there is no point in a couplersquos life that they are so fi nancial reliant on each other and the death or disablement of one member of the couple has the potential to fi nancial ruin a family

With a young family if the working spouse was unable to work for as little as a few months with no income coming in at all most families would be in fi nancial hardship

There are a number of insurance options and strategies that can avoid this fi nancial risk

For more information on these strategies and other life events please view our website wwwfuturefi nancialservicescomau

Camillersquos PetsI am so lucky that I can take my dogs to

work with me every day They sleep behind the front reception desk and pop up occasionally to say hello to the customers

Bella is my 13 year old kelpie She had a slight cough for 3 weeks and had chest radiographs and a heart ultrasound performed

Bella was diagnosed with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) a heart disease which causes the heart muscle to lose its ability to contract As the heart is not pumping blood forward eff ectively the blood backs up and causes fl uid to build up in the chest which Bella was then coughing up Bella was started on heart medications and the cough has reduced and she is as happy as ever

The usual outcome for DCM is only a few months and Bella is now in her 7th month

Each day I have with my best friend Bella is a gift

Pony is my Great Dane x Bull Mastiff He is coming up to 3 years of age and he is still stubborn as a mule I was kind of looking for a new dog to keep Pony company when Bella passes away when I

found a new dog at Hawkesbury Pound in October 2013

My new dogs name is Callie she is 15 years of age and is a Great Dane x Italian Greyhound according to the DNA test I had performed Callie is 45kg and looks a lot like Pony except she is a brown harlequin colour I only had Callie for about 1 week before she became unwell She had a fever and she was very quiet Blood tests and ultrasound did not reveal the cause of her illness I sent Callie to see the specialists at SASH at North Ryde where they performed a spinal tap to obtain a sample of her spinal fl uid The spinal fl uid was tested and was negative for bacteria protozoa and fungi Callie was diagnosed with Steroid Responsive Meningitis-Arteritis (SRMA) which is an autoimmune disease which attacks the central nervous

system Thankfully SRMA is treatable Callie was started on a 6 month course of corticosteroids and she was back to normal within 1 week Callie ate and drank like a horse whilst on the corticosteroids which is a normal side eff ect of this drug Callie was weaned off the corticosteroids and thankfully has had no relapse of the meningitis

Bella still runs my household and Pony and Callie are like 2 peas in a pod Every day I have Bella is a blessing and even though I have had time to prepare I will never be ready for the day when Bella passes away

I also have 3 cats and 2 pet sheep but they donrsquot come to work with me

Check out our website for more information wwworchardhillsvetcomau or join us on Facebook

We look forward to meeting you and your pets at Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital and please feel free to pop in anytime and meet the team

Feeling Confl ictedEveryone has experienced a confl ict

with another person Even if it was one of those thatrsquos never been spoken about in the open itrsquos still a confl ict And not all confl ict is bad there are just bad ways of dealing with confl ict

So how do we deal well with confl ict The fi rst step is to deal with the right

person Talk to the person you have a problem with Gossiping to someone else about it or asking them to speak on your behalf will never improve the situation only make it worse

The next step is to listen and ask questions rather than jumping to conclusions In my experience many disagreements could have been defused if the person hearing what sounded like an attack could have just stopped asked for clarifi cation of what was being said and realised it wasnrsquot what they fi rst thought

Not all confl icts are that straightforward of course Some will produce a great deal of hurt and pain even loss But whatever the scale we then have a choice to make A common response is to lsquopay backrsquo the pain we feel An alternative response is to off er forgiveness Thatrsquos not to say the hurt isnrsquot very real and forgiveness very costly for the person who off ers it We canrsquot control other people but we can choose how we act ourselves Which path will you choose

When Jesus broke into the world he brought forgiveness at great cost The cost was so great his death on the cross that it highlighted how great was the confl ict And yet it is forgiveness that he off ers us For those of us who have experienced that forgiveness we are freed to deal with confl ict in a way that serves and forgives others

Preschool

How are you settling into the new-ish yearWith the kids back at preprimaryhigh school itrsquos onto

sizzling routines packing lunch boxes (sigh) washing school clothes class information nights notes from school and lots of organising Itrsquos full-on isnrsquot it

Sometimes with all of this lsquodoingrsquo we forget about lsquobeingrsquo with our kids

When do you make the time to just lsquobersquo with your kids Time thatrsquos free of distractions where you lsquohang-outrsquo and enjoy each otherrsquos company where there is space for them to talk about what matters to them (the big stuff and little stuff ) and where you LISTEN

Some parents say their kids wonrsquot talk to them or they canrsquot get past the one word answers like lsquogoodrsquo lsquonothingrsquo lsquonowherersquo and lsquonobodyrsquo I ask those parents if they make the time and if they do then do they shut-up Kids clam up when parents pressure kids for answers jump in and off er advice rouse on them for getting things wrong when theyrsquove had a go Kids are actually very smart and they can be supported to generate their own solutions to their problems ndash yes even really little kids

I have spaces in the day where I am ldquowithrdquo my kids and fi ll it with my silence and my presence ndash the walk home from school afternoon tea a snuggle on the lounge one-on-one time with each of the kids even if it is just grocery shopping Silence is one of my favourite parenting tools but with the silence comes my openness and willingness to listen and use refl ection when my kids talk (for more information about this go to the ldquoRefl ective Listeningrdquo post at handsheartsmindswordpresscom)

I recently asked a group of parents the qualities they value in a friend They said someone who

bull is non-judgementalbull listens listens listensbull doesnrsquot bombard you with advicebull doesnrsquot blab on about their own stuff or lecturebull you can trustbull caresYou are not your childrsquos friend but your role as a parent should

St Patrickrsquos Day is observed on March 17 because that is the feast day of St Patrick the patron saint of Ireland It is believed that he died on March 17 in the year 461 AD It is also a worldwide celebration of Irish culture and history St Patrickrsquos Day is a national holiday in Ireland and a provincial holiday in the Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador

The actual colour of St Patrick is blue Green became associated with St Patricks Day during the 19th century Green in Irish legends was worn by fairies and immortals and also by people to encourage their crops to grow

Shamrocks are worn on the lapel on this day

In Ireland on St Patrickrsquos Day people traditionally wear a small bunch of shamrocks on their jackets or caps Children wear orange white and green badges and women and girls wear green ribbons in their hair

Many young people dye their hair green for the special day

Many people wear green on this holiday to avoid being pinched

Costa Rican TarrazuIn many peoplersquos opinion Costa Rican Tarrazu is one of

the worldrsquos greatest coff ees It has a light clean fl avour and a wonderful fragranceDescription

Costa Rica with its rich well-drained volcanic soil was the fi rst Central American country to grow coff ee and bananas on a commercial basis and both commodities are among its major exports Coff ee was introduced into Costa Rica from Cuba in 1729 and today the industry is one of the best organised in the world

The best Costa Rican coff ee is labelled ldquoSHBrdquo (Strictly Hard Bean ) which means that it has been grown at an altitude above 5000 feet (1500 metres)

Higher altitudes produce better beans because it produces a higher acidity in the bean and also because the colder nights and regular rainfall at these high altitudes cause the beans to mature much slower Both these two aspects create a fuller fl avour

Panic AttacksIf you have ever experienced a panic attack or witnessed

someone having one you will know it can be a very frightening experience

Panic attacks are periods of intense fear or apprehension that come on suddenly They are surprisingly common varying in intensity and duration from minutes to hours

Signs and symptoms of a panic attack include bull A sense of overwhelming amp seemingly uncontrollable

panic fear or anxietybull The thought that you are dying or lsquolosing controlrsquo or

lsquogoing madrsquobull Increased heart rate often feeling like a heart attackbull Diffi culty breathing (feeling that there is not enough

air)bull Excessive perspirationbull Dizziness light-headedness or feeling faintTriggers for panic attacks - basically any fear can trigger a

panic attack ndash the memory of a traumatic experience and the thought that it could re-occur fear of heights amp falling spiders needles fl ying getting lost etc

As an onlooker what can you do Stay calm and assure the person that they are safe Speak gently but assertively and positively amp get some help if necessary If the person is in any danger encourage them to move to a safe area

What can be done to prevent them By working with a therapist to address the underlying fear the severity and frequency of panic attacks can be greatly reduced if not avoided EFT is eff ective safe amp noninvasive and is gaining world-wide recognition for helping people eliminate their fears

Starting a FamilyStarting a family is obviously a huge

moment in a personrsquos life but it is also a time where seeking fi nancial advice is highly recommended

When starting a family the income and expenditure requirements change

immensely Although initial expenses donrsquot grow substantially as children grow older they account for more and more of the family budget This is especially if full time child care or private school fees are involved

The biggest change for most couples is going to a single income for a period of time At the risk of generalising most modern couples are duel income at least before they start having children and their lifestyle becomes reliant on both these incomes

Preparing for living on one income presents some challenges The most eff ective way to prepare for this is to reduce fi nancial commitments leading into having a family This may involve reducing debts cutting some lifestyle costs or building wealth in advance to prepare for reduced income

This reduced income due to time off work whether it is a matter of months or more long term may open opportunities not normally available There are strategies that are income tested Whilst working full time you or your partner may be unlikely to qualify for this however earning a reduced income becomes a viable option

The Government Co-Contribution is an incentive for low income earners to contribute to Superannuation The Co-

Contribution sees the government match contributions up to $500 for those who earn less than $31920 The maximum Co-Contribution reduces for amounts over this phasing out at $48516 Those that have the funds to make this contribution eff ectively double their investment instantly For many this period where income is reduced is the only opportunity they have to qualify for a Co-Contribution

The Spouse Rebate is another incentive by the government for low income earners to contribute to Superannuation Those who make after tax contributions to their spousersquos Superannuation fund can be entitled to an 18 tax rebate

The maximum contribution for this rebate is $3000 for those earning less than $10800 This maximum reduces for those earning more with the rebate phasing out at $13800 Again the time off work whilst starting a family may be the only time many qualify for this rebate

The most pressing fi nancial planning matter surrounds insurance Although many see insurance as a ldquodirty wordrdquo there is no point in a couplersquos life that they are so fi nancial reliant on each other and the death or disablement of one member of the couple has the potential to fi nancial ruin a family

With a young family if the working spouse was unable to work for as little as a few months with no income coming in at all most families would be in fi nancial hardship

There are a number of insurance options and strategies that can avoid this fi nancial risk

For more information on these strategies and other life events please view our website wwwfuturefi nancialservicescomau

Camillersquos PetsI am so lucky that I can take my dogs to

work with me every day They sleep behind the front reception desk and pop up occasionally to say hello to the customers

Bella is my 13 year old kelpie She had a slight cough for 3 weeks and had chest radiographs and a heart ultrasound performed

Bella was diagnosed with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) a heart disease which causes the heart muscle to lose its ability to contract As the heart is not pumping blood forward eff ectively the blood backs up and causes fl uid to build up in the chest which Bella was then coughing up Bella was started on heart medications and the cough has reduced and she is as happy as ever

The usual outcome for DCM is only a few months and Bella is now in her 7th month

Each day I have with my best friend Bella is a gift

Pony is my Great Dane x Bull Mastiff He is coming up to 3 years of age and he is still stubborn as a mule I was kind of looking for a new dog to keep Pony company when Bella passes away when I

found a new dog at Hawkesbury Pound in October 2013

My new dogs name is Callie she is 15 years of age and is a Great Dane x Italian Greyhound according to the DNA test I had performed Callie is 45kg and looks a lot like Pony except she is a brown harlequin colour I only had Callie for about 1 week before she became unwell She had a fever and she was very quiet Blood tests and ultrasound did not reveal the cause of her illness I sent Callie to see the specialists at SASH at North Ryde where they performed a spinal tap to obtain a sample of her spinal fl uid The spinal fl uid was tested and was negative for bacteria protozoa and fungi Callie was diagnosed with Steroid Responsive Meningitis-Arteritis (SRMA) which is an autoimmune disease which attacks the central nervous

system Thankfully SRMA is treatable Callie was started on a 6 month course of corticosteroids and she was back to normal within 1 week Callie ate and drank like a horse whilst on the corticosteroids which is a normal side eff ect of this drug Callie was weaned off the corticosteroids and thankfully has had no relapse of the meningitis

Bella still runs my household and Pony and Callie are like 2 peas in a pod Every day I have Bella is a blessing and even though I have had time to prepare I will never be ready for the day when Bella passes away

I also have 3 cats and 2 pet sheep but they donrsquot come to work with me

Check out our website for more information wwworchardhillsvetcomau or join us on Facebook

We look forward to meeting you and your pets at Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital and please feel free to pop in anytime and meet the team

Feeling Confl ictedEveryone has experienced a confl ict

with another person Even if it was one of those thatrsquos never been spoken about in the open itrsquos still a confl ict And not all confl ict is bad there are just bad ways of dealing with confl ict

So how do we deal well with confl ict The fi rst step is to deal with the right

person Talk to the person you have a problem with Gossiping to someone else about it or asking them to speak on your behalf will never improve the situation only make it worse

The next step is to listen and ask questions rather than jumping to conclusions In my experience many disagreements could have been defused if the person hearing what sounded like an attack could have just stopped asked for clarifi cation of what was being said and realised it wasnrsquot what they fi rst thought

Not all confl icts are that straightforward of course Some will produce a great deal of hurt and pain even loss But whatever the scale we then have a choice to make A common response is to lsquopay backrsquo the pain we feel An alternative response is to off er forgiveness Thatrsquos not to say the hurt isnrsquot very real and forgiveness very costly for the person who off ers it We canrsquot control other people but we can choose how we act ourselves Which path will you choose

When Jesus broke into the world he brought forgiveness at great cost The cost was so great his death on the cross that it highlighted how great was the confl ict And yet it is forgiveness that he off ers us For those of us who have experienced that forgiveness we are freed to deal with confl ict in a way that serves and forgives others

Preschool

How are you settling into the new-ish yearWith the kids back at preprimaryhigh school itrsquos onto

sizzling routines packing lunch boxes (sigh) washing school clothes class information nights notes from school and lots of organising Itrsquos full-on isnrsquot it

Sometimes with all of this lsquodoingrsquo we forget about lsquobeingrsquo with our kids

When do you make the time to just lsquobersquo with your kids Time thatrsquos free of distractions where you lsquohang-outrsquo and enjoy each otherrsquos company where there is space for them to talk about what matters to them (the big stuff and little stuff ) and where you LISTEN

Some parents say their kids wonrsquot talk to them or they canrsquot get past the one word answers like lsquogoodrsquo lsquonothingrsquo lsquonowherersquo and lsquonobodyrsquo I ask those parents if they make the time and if they do then do they shut-up Kids clam up when parents pressure kids for answers jump in and off er advice rouse on them for getting things wrong when theyrsquove had a go Kids are actually very smart and they can be supported to generate their own solutions to their problems ndash yes even really little kids

I have spaces in the day where I am ldquowithrdquo my kids and fi ll it with my silence and my presence ndash the walk home from school afternoon tea a snuggle on the lounge one-on-one time with each of the kids even if it is just grocery shopping Silence is one of my favourite parenting tools but with the silence comes my openness and willingness to listen and use refl ection when my kids talk (for more information about this go to the ldquoRefl ective Listeningrdquo post at handsheartsmindswordpresscom)

I recently asked a group of parents the qualities they value in a friend They said someone who

bull is non-judgementalbull listens listens listensbull doesnrsquot bombard you with advicebull doesnrsquot blab on about their own stuff or lecturebull you can trustbull caresYou are not your childrsquos friend but your role as a parent should

off er the same kindness When do you off er these qualities and lsquothe timersquo to your child

St Patrickrsquos Day is observed on March 17 because that is the feast day of St Patrick the patron saint of Ireland It is believed that he died on March 17 in the year 461 AD It is also a worldwide celebration of Irish culture and history St Patrickrsquos Day is a national holiday in Ireland and a provincial holiday in the Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador

The actual colour of St Patrick is blue Green became associated with St Patricks Day during the 19th century Green in Irish legends was worn by fairies and immortals and also by people to encourage their crops to grow

Shamrocks are worn on the lapel on this day

In Ireland on St Patrickrsquos Day people traditionally wear a small bunch of shamrocks on their jackets or caps Children wear orange white and green badges and women and girls wear green ribbons in their hair

Many young people dye their hair green for the special day

Many people wear green on this holiday to avoid being pinched

Costa Rican TarrazuIn many peoplersquos opinion Costa Rican Tarrazu is one of

the worldrsquos greatest coff ees It has a light clean fl avour and a wonderful fragranceDescription

Costa Rica with its rich well-drained volcanic soil was the fi rst Central American country to grow coff ee and bananas on a commercial basis and both commodities are among its major exports Coff ee was introduced into Costa Rica from Cuba in 1729 and today the industry is one of the best organised in the world

The best Costa Rican coff ee is labelled ldquoSHBrdquo (Strictly Hard Bean ) which means that it has been grown at an altitude above 5000 feet (1500 metres)

Higher altitudes produce better beans because it produces a higher acidity in the bean and also because the colder nights and regular rainfall at these high altitudes cause the beans to mature much slower Both these two aspects create a fuller fl avour

Panic AttacksIf you have ever experienced a panic attack or witnessed

someone having one you will know it can be a very frightening experience

Panic attacks are periods of intense fear or apprehension that come on suddenly They are surprisingly common varying in intensity and duration from minutes to hours

Signs and symptoms of a panic attack include bull A sense of overwhelming amp seemingly uncontrollable

panic fear or anxietybull The thought that you are dying or lsquolosing controlrsquo or

lsquogoing madrsquobull Increased heart rate often feeling like a heart attackbull Diffi culty breathing (feeling that there is not enough

air)bull Excessive perspirationbull Dizziness light-headedness or feeling faintTriggers for panic attacks - basically any fear can trigger a

panic attack ndash the memory of a traumatic experience and the thought that it could re-occur fear of heights amp falling spiders needles fl ying getting lost etc

As an onlooker what can you do Stay calm and assure the person that they are safe Speak gently but assertively and positively amp get some help if necessary If the person is in any danger encourage them to move to a safe area

What can be done to prevent them By working with a therapist to address the underlying fear the severity and frequency of panic attacks can be greatly reduced if not avoided EFT is eff ective safe amp noninvasive and is gaining world-wide recognition for helping people eliminate their fears

Starting a FamilyStarting a family is obviously a huge

moment in a personrsquos life but it is also a time where seeking fi nancial advice is highly recommended

When starting a family the income and expenditure requirements change

immensely Although initial expenses donrsquot grow substantially as children grow older they account for more and more of the family budget This is especially if full time child care or private school fees are involved

The biggest change for most couples is going to a single income for a period of time At the risk of generalising most modern couples are duel income at least before they start having children and their lifestyle becomes reliant on both these incomes

Preparing for living on one income presents some challenges The most eff ective way to prepare for this is to reduce fi nancial commitments leading into having a family This may involve reducing debts cutting some lifestyle costs or building wealth in advance to prepare for reduced income

This reduced income due to time off work whether it is a matter of months or more long term may open opportunities not normally available There are strategies that are income tested Whilst working full time you or your partner may be unlikely to qualify for this however earning a reduced income becomes a viable option

The Government Co-Contribution is an incentive for low income earners to contribute to Superannuation The Co-

Contribution sees the government match contributions up to $500 for those who earn less than $31920 The maximum Co-Contribution reduces for amounts over this phasing out at $48516 Those that have the funds to make this contribution eff ectively double their investment instantly For many this period where income is reduced is the only opportunity they have to qualify for a Co-Contribution

The Spouse Rebate is another incentive by the government for low income earners to contribute to Superannuation Those who make after tax contributions to their spousersquos Superannuation fund can be entitled to an 18 tax rebate

The maximum contribution for this rebate is $3000 for those earning less than $10800 This maximum reduces for those earning more with the rebate phasing out at $13800 Again the time off work whilst starting a family may be the only time many qualify for this rebate

The most pressing fi nancial planning matter surrounds insurance Although many see insurance as a ldquodirty wordrdquo there is no point in a couplersquos life that they are so fi nancial reliant on each other and the death or disablement of one member of the couple has the potential to fi nancial ruin a family

With a young family if the working spouse was unable to work for as little as a few months with no income coming in at all most families would be in fi nancial hardship

There are a number of insurance options and strategies that can avoid this fi nancial risk

For more information on these strategies and other life events please view our website wwwfuturefi nancialservicescomau

Camillersquos PetsI am so lucky that I can take my dogs to

work with me every day They sleep behind the front reception desk and pop up occasionally to say hello to the customers

Bella is my 13 year old kelpie She had a slight cough for 3 weeks and had chest radiographs and a heart ultrasound performed

Bella was diagnosed with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) a heart disease which causes the heart muscle to lose its ability to contract As the heart is not pumping blood forward eff ectively the blood backs up and causes fl uid to build up in the chest which Bella was then coughing up Bella was started on heart medications and the cough has reduced and she is as happy as ever

The usual outcome for DCM is only a few months and Bella is now in her 7th month

Each day I have with my best friend Bella is a gift

Pony is my Great Dane x Bull Mastiff He is coming up to 3 years of age and he is still stubborn as a mule I was kind of looking for a new dog to keep Pony company when Bella passes away when I

found a new dog at Hawkesbury Pound in October 2013

My new dogs name is Callie she is 15 years of age and is a Great Dane x Italian Greyhound according to the DNA test I had performed Callie is 45kg and looks a lot like Pony except she is a brown harlequin colour I only had Callie for about 1 week before she became unwell She had a fever and she was very quiet Blood tests and ultrasound did not reveal the cause of her illness I sent Callie to see the specialists at SASH at North Ryde where they performed a spinal tap to obtain a sample of her spinal fl uid The spinal fl uid was tested and was negative for bacteria protozoa and fungi Callie was diagnosed with Steroid Responsive Meningitis-Arteritis (SRMA) which is an autoimmune disease which attacks the central nervous

system Thankfully SRMA is treatable Callie was started on a 6 month course of corticosteroids and she was back to normal within 1 week Callie ate and drank like a horse whilst on the corticosteroids which is a normal side eff ect of this drug Callie was weaned off the corticosteroids and thankfully has had no relapse of the meningitis

Bella still runs my household and Pony and Callie are like 2 peas in a pod Every day I have Bella is a blessing and even though I have had time to prepare I will never be ready for the day when Bella passes away

I also have 3 cats and 2 pet sheep but they donrsquot come to work with me

Check out our website for more information wwworchardhillsvetcomau or join us on Facebook

We look forward to meeting you and your pets at Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital and please feel free to pop in anytime and meet the team

How are you settling into the new-ish yearWith the kids back at preprimaryhigh school itrsquos onto

sizzling routines packing lunch boxes (sigh) washing school clothes class information nights notes from school and lots of organising Itrsquos full-on isnrsquot it

Sometimes with all of this lsquodoingrsquo we forget about lsquobeingrsquo with our kids

When do you make the time to just lsquobersquo with your kids Time thatrsquos free of distractions where you lsquohang-outrsquo and enjoy each otherrsquos company where there is space for them to talk about what matters to them (the big stuff and little stuff ) and where you LISTEN

Some parents say their kids wonrsquot talk to them or they canrsquot get past the one word answers like lsquogoodrsquo lsquonothingrsquo lsquonowherersquo and lsquonobodyrsquo I ask those parents if they make the time and if they do then do they shut-up Kids clam up when parents pressure kids for answers jump in and off er advice rouse on them for getting things wrong when theyrsquove had a go Kids are actually very smart and they can be supported to generate their own solutions to their problems ndash yes even really little kids

I have spaces in the day where I am ldquowithrdquo my kids and fi ll it with my silence and my presence ndash the walk home from school afternoon tea a snuggle on the lounge one-on-one time with each of the kids even if it is just grocery shopping Silence is one of my favourite parenting tools but with the silence comes my openness and willingness to listen and use refl ection when my kids talk (for more information about this go to the ldquoRefl ective Listeningrdquo post at handsheartsmindswordpresscom)

I recently asked a group of parents the qualities they value in a friend They said someone who

bull is non-judgementalbull listens listens listensbull doesnrsquot bombard you with advicebull doesnrsquot blab on about their own stuff or lecturebull you can trustbull caresYou are not your childrsquos friend but your role as a parent should

St Patrickrsquos Day is observed on March 17 because that is the feast day of St Patrick the patron saint of Ireland It is believed that he died on March 17 in the year 461 AD It is also a worldwide celebration of Irish culture and history St Patrickrsquos Day is a national holiday in Ireland and a provincial holiday in the Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador

The actual colour of St Patrick is blue Green became associated with St Patricks Day during the 19th century Green in Irish legends was worn by fairies and immortals and also by people to encourage their crops to grow

Shamrocks are worn on the lapel on this day

In Ireland on St Patrickrsquos Day people traditionally wear a small bunch of shamrocks on their jackets or caps Children wear orange white and green badges and women and girls wear green ribbons in their hair

Many young people dye their hair green for the special day

Many people wear green on this holiday to avoid being pinched

Costa Rican TarrazuIn many peoplersquos opinion Costa Rican Tarrazu is one of

the worldrsquos greatest coff ees It has a light clean fl avour and a wonderful fragranceDescription

Costa Rica with its rich well-drained volcanic soil was the fi rst Central American country to grow coff ee and bananas on a commercial basis and both commodities are among its major exports Coff ee was introduced into Costa Rica from Cuba in 1729 and today the industry is one of the best organised in the world

The best Costa Rican coff ee is labelled ldquoSHBrdquo (Strictly Hard Bean ) which means that it has been grown at an altitude above 5000 feet (1500 metres)

Higher altitudes produce better beans because it produces a higher acidity in the bean and also because the colder nights and regular rainfall at these high altitudes cause the beans to mature much slower Both these two aspects create a fuller fl avour

Panic AttacksIf you have ever experienced a panic attack or witnessed

someone having one you will know it can be a very frightening experience

Panic attacks are periods of intense fear or apprehension that come on suddenly They are surprisingly common varying in intensity and duration from minutes to hours

Signs and symptoms of a panic attack include bull A sense of overwhelming amp seemingly uncontrollable

panic fear or anxietybull The thought that you are dying or lsquolosing controlrsquo or

lsquogoing madrsquobull Increased heart rate often feeling like a heart attackbull Diffi culty breathing (feeling that there is not enough

air)bull Excessive perspirationbull Dizziness light-headedness or feeling faintTriggers for panic attacks - basically any fear can trigger a

panic attack ndash the memory of a traumatic experience and the thought that it could re-occur fear of heights amp falling spiders needles fl ying getting lost etc

As an onlooker what can you do Stay calm and assure the person that they are safe Speak gently but assertively and positively amp get some help if necessary If the person is in any danger encourage them to move to a safe area

What can be done to prevent them By working with a therapist to address the underlying fear the severity and frequency of panic attacks can be greatly reduced if not avoided EFT is eff ective safe amp noninvasive and is gaining world-wide recognition for helping people eliminate their fears

Starting a FamilyStarting a family is obviously a huge

moment in a personrsquos life but it is also a time where seeking fi nancial advice is highly recommended

When starting a family the income and expenditure requirements change

immensely Although initial expenses donrsquot grow substantially as children grow older they account for more and more of the family budget This is especially if full time child care or private school fees are involved

The biggest change for most couples is going to a single income for a period of time At the risk of generalising most modern couples are duel income at least before they start having children and their lifestyle becomes reliant on both these incomes

Preparing for living on one income presents some challenges The most eff ective way to prepare for this is to reduce fi nancial commitments leading into having a family This may involve reducing debts cutting some lifestyle costs or building wealth in advance to prepare for reduced income

This reduced income due to time off work whether it is a matter of months or more long term may open opportunities not normally available There are strategies that are income tested Whilst working full time you or your partner may be unlikely to qualify for this however earning a reduced income becomes a viable option

The Government Co-Contribution is an incentive for low income earners to contribute to Superannuation The Co-

Contribution sees the government match contributions up to $500 for those who earn less than $31920 The maximum Co-Contribution reduces for amounts over this phasing out at $48516 Those that have the funds to make this contribution eff ectively double their investment instantly For many this period where income is reduced is the only opportunity they have to qualify for a Co-Contribution

The Spouse Rebate is another incentive by the government for low income earners to contribute to Superannuation Those who make after tax contributions to their spousersquos Superannuation fund can be entitled to an 18 tax rebate

The maximum contribution for this rebate is $3000 for those earning less than $10800 This maximum reduces for those earning more with the rebate phasing out at $13800 Again the time off work whilst starting a family may be the only time many qualify for this rebate

The most pressing fi nancial planning matter surrounds insurance Although many see insurance as a ldquodirty wordrdquo there is no point in a couplersquos life that they are so fi nancial reliant on each other and the death or disablement of one member of the couple has the potential to fi nancial ruin a family

With a young family if the working spouse was unable to work for as little as a few months with no income coming in at all most families would be in fi nancial hardship

There are a number of insurance options and strategies that can avoid this fi nancial risk

For more information on these strategies and other life events please view our website wwwfuturefi nancialservicescomau

Camillersquos PetsI am so lucky that I can take my dogs to

work with me every day They sleep behind the front reception desk and pop up occasionally to say hello to the customers

Bella is my 13 year old kelpie She had a slight cough for 3 weeks and had chest radiographs and a heart ultrasound performed

Bella was diagnosed with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) a heart disease which causes the heart muscle to lose its ability to contract As the heart is not pumping blood forward eff ectively the blood backs up and causes fl uid to build up in the chest which Bella was then coughing up Bella was started on heart medications and the cough has reduced and she is as happy as ever

The usual outcome for DCM is only a few months and Bella is now in her 7th month

Each day I have with my best friend Bella is a gift

Pony is my Great Dane x Bull Mastiff He is coming up to 3 years of age and he is still stubborn as a mule I was kind of looking for a new dog to keep Pony company when Bella passes away when I

found a new dog at Hawkesbury Pound in October 2013

My new dogs name is Callie she is 15 years of age and is a Great Dane x Italian Greyhound according to the DNA test I had performed Callie is 45kg and looks a lot like Pony except she is a brown harlequin colour I only had Callie for about 1 week before she became unwell She had a fever and she was very quiet Blood tests and ultrasound did not reveal the cause of her illness I sent Callie to see the specialists at SASH at North Ryde where they performed a spinal tap to obtain a sample of her spinal fl uid The spinal fl uid was tested and was negative for bacteria protozoa and fungi Callie was diagnosed with Steroid Responsive Meningitis-Arteritis (SRMA) which is an autoimmune disease which attacks the central nervous

system Thankfully SRMA is treatable Callie was started on a 6 month course of corticosteroids and she was back to normal within 1 week Callie ate and drank like a horse whilst on the corticosteroids which is a normal side eff ect of this drug Callie was weaned off the corticosteroids and thankfully has had no relapse of the meningitis

Bella still runs my household and Pony and Callie are like 2 peas in a pod Every day I have Bella is a blessing and even though I have had time to prepare I will never be ready for the day when Bella passes away

I also have 3 cats and 2 pet sheep but they donrsquot come to work with me

We look forward to meeting you and your pets at Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital and please feel free to pop in anytime and meet the team

Preschool

How are you settling into the new-ish yearWith the kids back at preprimaryhigh school itrsquos onto

sizzling routines packing lunch boxes (sigh) washing school clothes class information nights notes from school and lots of organising Itrsquos full-on isnrsquot it

Sometimes with all of this lsquodoingrsquo we forget about lsquobeingrsquo with our kids

When do you make the time to just lsquobersquo with your kids Time thatrsquos free of distractions where you lsquohang-outrsquo and enjoy each otherrsquos company where there is space for them to talk about what matters to them (the big stuff and little stuff ) and where you LISTEN

Some parents say their kids wonrsquot talk to them or they canrsquot get past the one word answers like lsquogoodrsquo lsquonothingrsquo lsquonowherersquo and lsquonobodyrsquo I ask those parents if they make the time and if they do then do they shut-up Kids clam up when parents pressure kids for answers jump in and off er advice rouse on them for getting things wrong when theyrsquove had a go Kids are actually very smart and they can be supported to generate their own solutions to their problems ndash yes even really little kids

I have spaces in the day where I am ldquowithrdquo my kids and fi ll it with my silence and my presence ndash the walk home from school afternoon tea a snuggle on the lounge one-on-one time with each of the kids even if it is just grocery shopping Silence is one of my favourite parenting tools but with the silence comes my openness and willingness to listen and use refl ection when my kids talk (for more information about this go to the ldquoRefl ective Listeningrdquo post at handsheartsmindswordpresscom)

I recently asked a group of parents the qualities they value in a friend They said someone who

bull is non-judgementalbull listens listens listensbull doesnrsquot bombard you with advicebull doesnrsquot blab on about their own stuff or lecturebull you can trustbull caresYou are not your childrsquos friend but your role as a parent should

off er the same kindness When do you off er these qualities and lsquothe timersquo to your child

St Patrickrsquos Day is observed on March 17 because that is the feast day of St Patrick the patron saint of Ireland It is believed that he died on March 17 in the year 461 AD It is also a worldwide celebration of Irish culture and history St Patrickrsquos Day is a national holiday in Ireland and a provincial holiday in the Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador

The actual colour of St Patrick is blue Green became associated with St Patricks Day during the 19th century Green in Irish legends was worn by fairies and immortals and also by people to encourage their crops to grow

Shamrocks are worn on the lapel on this day

In Ireland on St Patrickrsquos Day people traditionally wear a small bunch of shamrocks on their jackets or caps Children wear orange white and green badges and women and girls wear green ribbons in their hair

Many young people dye their hair green for the special day

Many people wear green on this holiday to avoid being pinched

Costa Rican TarrazuIn many peoplersquos opinion Costa Rican Tarrazu is one of

the worldrsquos greatest coff ees It has a light clean fl avour and a wonderful fragranceDescription

Costa Rica with its rich well-drained volcanic soil was the fi rst Central American country to grow coff ee and bananas on a commercial basis and both commodities are among its major exports Coff ee was introduced into Costa Rica from Cuba in 1729 and today the industry is one of the best organised in the world

The best Costa Rican coff ee is labelled ldquoSHBrdquo (Strictly Hard Bean ) which means that it has been grown at an altitude above 5000 feet (1500 metres)

Higher altitudes produce better beans because it produces a higher acidity in the bean and also because the colder nights and regular rainfall at these high altitudes cause the beans to mature much slower Both these two aspects create a fuller fl avour

Panic AttacksIf you have ever experienced a panic attack or witnessed

someone having one you will know it can be a very frightening experience

Panic attacks are periods of intense fear or apprehension that come on suddenly They are surprisingly common varying in intensity and duration from minutes to hours

Signs and symptoms of a panic attack include bull A sense of overwhelming amp seemingly uncontrollable

panic fear or anxietybull The thought that you are dying or lsquolosing controlrsquo or

lsquogoing madrsquobull Increased heart rate often feeling like a heart attackbull Diffi culty breathing (feeling that there is not enough

air)bull Excessive perspirationbull Dizziness light-headedness or feeling faintTriggers for panic attacks - basically any fear can trigger a

panic attack ndash the memory of a traumatic experience and the thought that it could re-occur fear of heights amp falling spiders needles fl ying getting lost etc

As an onlooker what can you do Stay calm and assure the person that they are safe Speak gently but assertively and positively amp get some help if necessary If the person is in any danger encourage them to move to a safe area

What can be done to prevent them By working with a therapist to address the underlying fear the severity and frequency of panic attacks can be greatly reduced if not avoided EFT is eff ective safe amp noninvasive and is gaining world-wide recognition for helping people eliminate their fears

Starting a FamilyStarting a family is obviously a huge

moment in a personrsquos life but it is also a time where seeking fi nancial advice is highly recommended

When starting a family the income and expenditure requirements change

immensely Although initial expenses donrsquot grow substantially as children grow older they account for more and more of the family budget This is especially if full time child care or private school fees are involved

The biggest change for most couples is going to a single income for a period of time At the risk of generalising most modern couples are duel income at least before they start having children and their lifestyle becomes reliant on both these incomes

Preparing for living on one income presents some challenges The most eff ective way to prepare for this is to reduce fi nancial commitments leading into having a family This may involve reducing debts cutting some lifestyle costs or building wealth in advance to prepare for reduced income

This reduced income due to time off work whether it is a matter of months or more long term may open opportunities not normally available There are strategies that are income tested Whilst working full time you or your partner may be unlikely to qualify for this however earning a reduced income becomes a viable option

The Government Co-Contribution is an incentive for low income earners to contribute to Superannuation The Co-

Contribution sees the government match contributions up to $500 for those who earn less than $31920 The maximum Co-Contribution reduces for amounts over this phasing out at $48516 Those that have the funds to make this contribution eff ectively double their investment instantly For many this period where income is reduced is the only opportunity they have to qualify for a Co-Contribution

The Spouse Rebate is another incentive by the government for low income earners to contribute to Superannuation Those who make after tax contributions to their spousersquos Superannuation fund can be entitled to an 18 tax rebate

The maximum contribution for this rebate is $3000 for those earning less than $10800 This maximum reduces for those earning more with the rebate phasing out at $13800 Again the time off work whilst starting a family may be the only time many qualify for this rebate

The most pressing fi nancial planning matter surrounds insurance Although many see insurance as a ldquodirty wordrdquo there is no point in a couplersquos life that they are so fi nancial reliant on each other and the death or disablement of one member of the couple has the potential to fi nancial ruin a family

With a young family if the working spouse was unable to work for as little as a few months with no income coming in at all most families would be in fi nancial hardship

There are a number of insurance options and strategies that can avoid this fi nancial risk

For more information on these strategies and other life events please view our website wwwfuturefi nancialservicescomau

Camillersquos PetsI am so lucky that I can take my dogs to

work with me every day They sleep behind the front reception desk and pop up occasionally to say hello to the customers

Bella is my 13 year old kelpie She had a slight cough for 3 weeks and had chest radiographs and a heart ultrasound performed

Bella was diagnosed with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) a heart disease which causes the heart muscle to lose its ability to contract As the heart is not pumping blood forward eff ectively the blood backs up and causes fl uid to build up in the chest which Bella was then coughing up Bella was started on heart medications and the cough has reduced and she is as happy as ever

The usual outcome for DCM is only a few months and Bella is now in her 7th month

Each day I have with my best friend Bella is a gift

Pony is my Great Dane x Bull Mastiff He is coming up to 3 years of age and he is still stubborn as a mule I was kind of looking for a new dog to keep Pony company when Bella passes away when I

found a new dog at Hawkesbury Pound in October 2013

My new dogs name is Callie she is 15 years of age and is a Great Dane x Italian Greyhound according to the DNA test I had performed Callie is 45kg and looks a lot like Pony except she is a brown harlequin colour I only had Callie for about 1 week before she became unwell She had a fever and she was very quiet Blood tests and ultrasound did not reveal the cause of her illness I sent Callie to see the specialists at SASH at North Ryde where they performed a spinal tap to obtain a sample of her spinal fl uid The spinal fl uid was tested and was negative for bacteria protozoa and fungi Callie was diagnosed with Steroid Responsive Meningitis-Arteritis (SRMA) which is an autoimmune disease which attacks the central nervous

system Thankfully SRMA is treatable Callie was started on a 6 month course of corticosteroids and she was back to normal within 1 week Callie ate and drank like a horse whilst on the corticosteroids which is a normal side eff ect of this drug Callie was weaned off the corticosteroids and thankfully has had no relapse of the meningitis

Bella still runs my household and Pony and Callie are like 2 peas in a pod Every day I have Bella is a blessing and even though I have had time to prepare I will never be ready for the day when Bella passes away

I also have 3 cats and 2 pet sheep but they donrsquot come to work with me

Check out our website for more information wwworchardhillsvetcomau or join us on Facebook

We look forward to meeting you and your pets at Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital and please feel free to pop in anytime and meet the team

How are you settling into the new-ish yearWith the kids back at preprimaryhigh school itrsquos onto

sizzling routines packing lunch boxes (sigh) washing school clothes class information nights notes from school and lots of organising Itrsquos full-on isnrsquot it

Sometimes with all of this lsquodoingrsquo we forget about lsquobeingrsquo with our kids

When do you make the time to just lsquobersquo with your kids Time thatrsquos free of distractions where you lsquohang-outrsquo and enjoy each otherrsquos company where there is space for them to talk about what matters to them (the big stuff and little stuff ) and where you LISTEN

Some parents say their kids wonrsquot talk to them or they canrsquot get past the one word answers like lsquogoodrsquo lsquonothingrsquo lsquonowherersquo and lsquonobodyrsquo I ask those parents if they make the time and if they do then do they shut-up Kids clam up when parents pressure kids for answers jump in and off er advice rouse on them for getting things wrong when theyrsquove had a go Kids are actually very smart and they can be supported to generate their own solutions to their problems ndash yes even really little kids

I have spaces in the day where I am ldquowithrdquo my kids and fi ll it with my silence and my presence ndash the walk home from school afternoon tea a snuggle on the lounge one-on-one time with each of the kids even if it is just grocery shopping Silence is one of my favourite parenting tools but with the silence comes my openness and willingness to listen and use refl ection when my kids talk (for more information about this go to the ldquoRefl ective Listeningrdquo post at handsheartsmindswordpresscom)

I recently asked a group of parents the qualities they value in a friend They said someone who

bull is non-judgementalbull listens listens listensbull doesnrsquot bombard you with advicebull doesnrsquot blab on about their own stuff or lecturebull you can trustbull caresYou are not your childrsquos friend but your role as a parent should

St Patrickrsquos Day is observed on March 17 because that is the feast day of St Patrick the patron saint of Ireland It is believed that he died on March 17 in the year 461 AD It is also a worldwide celebration of Irish culture and history St Patrickrsquos Day is a national holiday in Ireland and a provincial holiday in the Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador

The actual colour of St Patrick is blue Green became associated with St Patricks Day during the 19th century Green in Irish legends was worn by fairies and immortals and also by people to encourage their crops to grow

Shamrocks are worn on the lapel on this day

In Ireland on St Patrickrsquos Day people traditionally wear a small bunch of shamrocks on their jackets or caps Children wear orange white and green badges and women and girls wear green ribbons in their hair

Many young people dye their hair green for the special day

Many people wear green on this holiday to avoid being pinched

Costa Rican TarrazuIn many peoplersquos opinion Costa Rican Tarrazu is one of

the worldrsquos greatest coff ees It has a light clean fl avour and a wonderful fragranceDescription

Costa Rica with its rich well-drained volcanic soil was the fi rst Central American country to grow coff ee and bananas on a commercial basis and both commodities are among its major exports Coff ee was introduced into Costa Rica from Cuba in 1729 and today the industry is one of the best organised in the world

The best Costa Rican coff ee is labelled ldquoSHBrdquo (Strictly Hard Bean ) which means that it has been grown at an altitude above 5000 feet (1500 metres)

Higher altitudes produce better beans because it produces a higher acidity in the bean and also because the colder nights and regular rainfall at these high altitudes cause the beans to mature much slower Both these two aspects create a fuller fl avour

Panic AttacksIf you have ever experienced a panic attack or witnessed

someone having one you will know it can be a very frightening experience

Panic attacks are periods of intense fear or apprehension that come on suddenly They are surprisingly common varying in intensity and duration from minutes to hours

Signs and symptoms of a panic attack include bull A sense of overwhelming amp seemingly uncontrollable

panic fear or anxietybull The thought that you are dying or lsquolosing controlrsquo or

lsquogoing madrsquobull Increased heart rate often feeling like a heart attackbull Diffi culty breathing (feeling that there is not enough

air)bull Excessive perspirationbull Dizziness light-headedness or feeling faintTriggers for panic attacks - basically any fear can trigger a

panic attack ndash the memory of a traumatic experience and the thought that it could re-occur fear of heights amp falling spiders needles fl ying getting lost etc

As an onlooker what can you do Stay calm and assure the person that they are safe Speak gently but assertively and positively amp get some help if necessary If the person is in any danger encourage them to move to a safe area

What can be done to prevent them By working with a therapist to address the underlying fear the severity and frequency of panic attacks can be greatly reduced if not avoided EFT is eff ective safe amp noninvasive and is gaining world-wide recognition for helping people eliminate their fears

Starting a FamilyStarting a family is obviously a huge

moment in a personrsquos life but it is also a time where seeking fi nancial advice is highly recommended

When starting a family the income and expenditure requirements change

immensely Although initial expenses donrsquot grow substantially as children grow older they account for more and more of the family budget This is especially if full time child care or private school fees are involved

The biggest change for most couples is going to a single income for a period of time At the risk of generalising most modern couples are duel income at least before they start having children and their lifestyle becomes reliant on both these incomes

Preparing for living on one income presents some challenges The most eff ective way to prepare for this is to reduce fi nancial commitments leading into having a family This may involve reducing debts cutting some lifestyle costs or building wealth in advance to prepare for reduced income

This reduced income due to time off work whether it is a matter of months or more long term may open opportunities not normally available There are strategies that are income tested Whilst working full time you or your partner may be unlikely to qualify for this however earning a reduced income becomes a viable option

The Government Co-Contribution is an incentive for low income earners to contribute to Superannuation The Co-

Contribution sees the government match contributions up to $500 for those who earn less than $31920 The maximum Co-Contribution reduces for amounts over this phasing out at $48516 Those that have the funds to make this contribution eff ectively double their investment instantly For many this period where income is reduced is the only opportunity they have to qualify for a Co-Contribution

The Spouse Rebate is another incentive by the government for low income earners to contribute to Superannuation Those who make after tax contributions to their spousersquos Superannuation fund can be entitled to an 18 tax rebate

The maximum contribution for this rebate is $3000 for those earning less than $10800 This maximum reduces for those earning more with the rebate phasing out at $13800 Again the time off work whilst starting a family may be the only time many qualify for this rebate

The most pressing fi nancial planning matter surrounds insurance Although many see insurance as a ldquodirty wordrdquo there is no point in a couplersquos life that they are so fi nancial reliant on each other and the death or disablement of one member of the couple has the potential to fi nancial ruin a family

With a young family if the working spouse was unable to work for as little as a few months with no income coming in at all most families would be in fi nancial hardship

There are a number of insurance options and strategies that can avoid this fi nancial risk

For more information on these strategies and other life events please view our website wwwfuturefi nancialservicescomau

Camillersquos PetsI am so lucky that I can take my dogs to

work with me every day They sleep behind the front reception desk and pop up occasionally to say hello to the customers

Bella is my 13 year old kelpie She had a slight cough for 3 weeks and had chest radiographs and a heart ultrasound performed

Bella was diagnosed with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) a heart disease which causes the heart muscle to lose its ability to contract As the heart is not pumping blood forward eff ectively the blood backs up and causes fl uid to build up in the chest which Bella was then coughing up Bella was started on heart medications and the cough has reduced and she is as happy as ever

The usual outcome for DCM is only a few months and Bella is now in her 7th month

Each day I have with my best friend Bella is a gift

Pony is my Great Dane x Bull Mastiff He is coming up to 3 years of age and he is still stubborn as a mule I was kind of looking for a new dog to keep Pony company when Bella passes away when I

found a new dog at Hawkesbury Pound in October 2013

My new dogs name is Callie she is 15 years of age and is a Great Dane x Italian Greyhound according to the DNA test I had performed Callie is 45kg and looks a lot like Pony except she is a brown harlequin colour I only had Callie for about 1 week before she became unwell She had a fever and she was very quiet Blood tests and ultrasound did not reveal the cause of her illness I sent Callie to see the specialists at SASH at North Ryde where they performed a spinal tap to obtain a sample of her spinal fl uid The spinal fl uid was tested and was negative for bacteria protozoa and fungi Callie was diagnosed with Steroid Responsive Meningitis-Arteritis (SRMA) which is an autoimmune disease which attacks the central nervous

system Thankfully SRMA is treatable Callie was started on a 6 month course of corticosteroids and she was back to normal within 1 week Callie ate and drank like a horse whilst on the corticosteroids which is a normal side eff ect of this drug Callie was weaned off the corticosteroids and thankfully has had no relapse of the meningitis

Bella still runs my household and Pony and Callie are like 2 peas in a pod Every day I have Bella is a blessing and even though I have had time to prepare I will never be ready for the day when Bella passes away

I also have 3 cats and 2 pet sheep but they donrsquot come to work with me

Preschool

How are you settling into the new-ish yearWith the kids back at preprimaryhigh school itrsquos onto

sizzling routines packing lunch boxes (sigh) washing school clothes class information nights notes from school and lots of organising Itrsquos full-on isnrsquot it

Sometimes with all of this lsquodoingrsquo we forget about lsquobeingrsquo with our kids

When do you make the time to just lsquobersquo with your kids Time thatrsquos free of distractions where you lsquohang-outrsquo and enjoy each otherrsquos company where there is space for them to talk about what matters to them (the big stuff and little stuff ) and where you LISTEN

Some parents say their kids wonrsquot talk to them or they canrsquot get past the one word answers like lsquogoodrsquo lsquonothingrsquo lsquonowherersquo and lsquonobodyrsquo I ask those parents if they make the time and if they do then do they shut-up Kids clam up when parents pressure kids for answers jump in and off er advice rouse on them for getting things wrong when theyrsquove had a go Kids are actually very smart and they can be supported to generate their own solutions to their problems ndash yes even really little kids

I have spaces in the day where I am ldquowithrdquo my kids and fi ll it with my silence and my presence ndash the walk home from school afternoon tea a snuggle on the lounge one-on-one time with each of the kids even if it is just grocery shopping Silence is one of my favourite parenting tools but with the silence comes my openness and willingness to listen and use refl ection when my kids talk (for more information about this go to the ldquoRefl ective Listeningrdquo post at handsheartsmindswordpresscom)

I recently asked a group of parents the qualities they value in a friend They said someone who

bull is non-judgementalbull listens listens listensbull doesnrsquot bombard you with advicebull doesnrsquot blab on about their own stuff or lecturebull you can trustbull caresYou are not your childrsquos friend but your role as a parent should

off er the same kindness When do you off er these qualities and lsquothe timersquo to your child

St Patrickrsquos Day is observed on March 17 because that is the feast day of St Patrick the patron saint of Ireland It is believed that he died on March 17 in the year 461 AD It is also a worldwide celebration of Irish culture and history St Patrickrsquos Day is a national holiday in Ireland and a provincial holiday in the Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador

The actual colour of St Patrick is blue Green became associated with St Patricks Day during the 19th century Green in Irish legends was worn by fairies and immortals and also by people to encourage their crops to grow

Shamrocks are worn on the lapel on this day

In Ireland on St Patrickrsquos Day people traditionally wear a small bunch of shamrocks on their jackets or caps Children wear orange white and green badges and women and girls wear green ribbons in their hair

Many young people dye their hair green for the special day

Many people wear green on this holiday to avoid being pinched

Costa Rican TarrazuIn many peoplersquos opinion Costa Rican Tarrazu is one of

the worldrsquos greatest coff ees It has a light clean fl avour and a wonderful fragranceDescription

Costa Rica with its rich well-drained volcanic soil was the fi rst Central American country to grow coff ee and bananas on a commercial basis and both commodities are among its major exports Coff ee was introduced into Costa Rica from Cuba in 1729 and today the industry is one of the best organised in the world

The best Costa Rican coff ee is labelled ldquoSHBrdquo (Strictly Hard Bean ) which means that it has been grown at an altitude above 5000 feet (1500 metres)

Higher altitudes produce better beans because it produces a higher acidity in the bean and also because the colder nights and regular rainfall at these high altitudes cause the beans to mature much slower Both these two aspects create a fuller fl avour

Panic AttacksIf you have ever experienced a panic attack or witnessed

someone having one you will know it can be a very frightening experience

Panic attacks are periods of intense fear or apprehension that come on suddenly They are surprisingly common varying in intensity and duration from minutes to hours

Signs and symptoms of a panic attack include bull A sense of overwhelming amp seemingly uncontrollable

panic fear or anxietybull The thought that you are dying or lsquolosing controlrsquo or

lsquogoing madrsquobull Increased heart rate often feeling like a heart attackbull Diffi culty breathing (feeling that there is not enough

air)bull Excessive perspirationbull Dizziness light-headedness or feeling faintTriggers for panic attacks - basically any fear can trigger a

panic attack ndash the memory of a traumatic experience and the thought that it could re-occur fear of heights amp falling spiders needles fl ying getting lost etc

As an onlooker what can you do Stay calm and assure the person that they are safe Speak gently but assertively and positively amp get some help if necessary If the person is in any danger encourage them to move to a safe area

What can be done to prevent them By working with a therapist to address the underlying fear the severity and frequency of panic attacks can be greatly reduced if not avoided EFT is eff ective safe amp noninvasive and is gaining world-wide recognition for helping people eliminate their fears

Starting a FamilyStarting a family is obviously a huge

moment in a personrsquos life but it is also a time where seeking fi nancial advice is highly recommended

When starting a family the income and expenditure requirements change

immensely Although initial expenses donrsquot grow substantially as children grow older they account for more and more of the family budget This is especially if full time child care or private school fees are involved

The biggest change for most couples is going to a single income for a period of time At the risk of generalising most modern couples are duel income at least before they start having children and their lifestyle becomes reliant on both these incomes

Preparing for living on one income presents some challenges The most eff ective way to prepare for this is to reduce fi nancial commitments leading into having a family This may involve reducing debts cutting some lifestyle costs or building wealth in advance to prepare for reduced income

This reduced income due to time off work whether it is a matter of months or more long term may open opportunities not normally available There are strategies that are income tested Whilst working full time you or your partner may be unlikely to qualify for this however earning a reduced income becomes a viable option

The Government Co-Contribution is an incentive for low income earners to contribute to Superannuation The Co-

Contribution sees the government match contributions up to $500 for those who earn less than $31920 The maximum Co-Contribution reduces for amounts over this phasing out at $48516 Those that have the funds to make this contribution eff ectively double their investment instantly For many this period where income is reduced is the only opportunity they have to qualify for a Co-Contribution

The Spouse Rebate is another incentive by the government for low income earners to contribute to Superannuation Those who make after tax contributions to their spousersquos Superannuation fund can be entitled to an 18 tax rebate

The maximum contribution for this rebate is $3000 for those earning less than $10800 This maximum reduces for those earning more with the rebate phasing out at $13800 Again the time off work whilst starting a family may be the only time many qualify for this rebate

The most pressing fi nancial planning matter surrounds insurance Although many see insurance as a ldquodirty wordrdquo there is no point in a couplersquos life that they are so fi nancial reliant on each other and the death or disablement of one member of the couple has the potential to fi nancial ruin a family

With a young family if the working spouse was unable to work for as little as a few months with no income coming in at all most families would be in fi nancial hardship

There are a number of insurance options and strategies that can avoid this fi nancial risk

For more information on these strategies and other life events please view our website wwwfuturefi nancialservicescomau

Camillersquos PetsI am so lucky that I can take my dogs to

work with me every day They sleep behind the front reception desk and pop up occasionally to say hello to the customers

Bella is my 13 year old kelpie She had a slight cough for 3 weeks and had chest radiographs and a heart ultrasound performed

Bella was diagnosed with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) a heart disease which causes the heart muscle to lose its ability to contract As the heart is not pumping blood forward eff ectively the blood backs up and causes fl uid to build up in the chest which Bella was then coughing up Bella was started on heart medications and the cough has reduced and she is as happy as ever

The usual outcome for DCM is only a few months and Bella is now in her 7th month

Each day I have with my best friend Bella is a gift

Pony is my Great Dane x Bull Mastiff He is coming up to 3 years of age and he is still stubborn as a mule I was kind of looking for a new dog to keep Pony company when Bella passes away when I

found a new dog at Hawkesbury Pound in October 2013

My new dogs name is Callie she is 15 years of age and is a Great Dane x Italian Greyhound according to the DNA test I had performed Callie is 45kg and looks a lot like Pony except she is a brown harlequin colour I only had Callie for about 1 week before she became unwell She had a fever and she was very quiet Blood tests and ultrasound did not reveal the cause of her illness I sent Callie to see the specialists at SASH at North Ryde where they performed a spinal tap to obtain a sample of her spinal fl uid The spinal fl uid was tested and was negative for bacteria protozoa and fungi Callie was diagnosed with Steroid Responsive Meningitis-Arteritis (SRMA) which is an autoimmune disease which attacks the central nervous

system Thankfully SRMA is treatable Callie was started on a 6 month course of corticosteroids and she was back to normal within 1 week Callie ate and drank like a horse whilst on the corticosteroids which is a normal side eff ect of this drug Callie was weaned off the corticosteroids and thankfully has had no relapse of the meningitis

Bella still runs my household and Pony and Callie are like 2 peas in a pod Every day I have Bella is a blessing and even though I have had time to prepare I will never be ready for the day when Bella passes away

I also have 3 cats and 2 pet sheep but they donrsquot come to work with me

Check out our website for more information wwworchardhillsvetcomau or join us on Facebook

We look forward to meeting you and your pets at Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital and please feel free to pop in anytime and meet the team

Costa Rican TarrazuIn many peoplersquos opinion Costa Rican Tarrazu is one of

the worldrsquos greatest coff ees It has a light clean fl avour and a wonderful fragranceDescription

Costa Rica with its rich well-drained volcanic soil was the fi rst Central American country to grow coff ee and bananas on a commercial basis and both commodities are among its major exports Coff ee was introduced into Costa Rica from Cuba in 1729 and today the industry is one of the best organised in the world

The best Costa Rican coff ee is labelled ldquoSHBrdquo (Strictly Hard Bean ) which means that it has been grown at an altitude above 5000 feet (1500 metres)

Higher altitudes produce better beans because it produces a higher acidity in the bean and also because the colder nights and regular rainfall at these high altitudes cause the beans to mature much slower Both these two aspects create a fuller fl avour

Panic AttacksIf you have ever experienced a panic attack or witnessed

someone having one you will know it can be a very frightening experience

Panic attacks are periods of intense fear or apprehension that come on suddenly They are surprisingly common varying in intensity and duration from minutes to hours

Signs and symptoms of a panic attack include bull A sense of overwhelming amp seemingly uncontrollable

panic fear or anxietybull The thought that you are dying or lsquolosing controlrsquo or

lsquogoing madrsquobull Increased heart rate often feeling like a heart attackbull Diffi culty breathing (feeling that there is not enough

air)bull Excessive perspirationbull Dizziness light-headedness or feeling faintTriggers for panic attacks - basically any fear can trigger a

panic attack ndash the memory of a traumatic experience and the thought that it could re-occur fear of heights amp falling spiders needles fl ying getting lost etc

As an onlooker what can you do Stay calm and assure the person that they are safe Speak gently but assertively and positively amp get some help if necessary If the person is in any danger encourage them to move to a safe area

What can be done to prevent them By working with a therapist to address the underlying fear the severity and frequency of panic attacks can be greatly reduced if not avoided EFT is eff ective safe amp noninvasive and is gaining world-wide recognition for helping people eliminate their fears

Starting a FamilyStarting a family is obviously a huge

moment in a personrsquos life but it is also a time where seeking fi nancial advice is highly recommended

When starting a family the income and expenditure requirements change

immensely Although initial expenses donrsquot grow substantially as children grow older they account for more and more of the family budget This is especially if full time child care or private school fees are involved

The biggest change for most couples is going to a single income for a period of time At the risk of generalising most modern couples are duel income at least before they start having children and their lifestyle becomes reliant on both these incomes

Preparing for living on one income presents some challenges The most eff ective way to prepare for this is to reduce fi nancial commitments leading into having a family This may involve reducing debts cutting some lifestyle costs or building wealth in advance to prepare for reduced income

This reduced income due to time off work whether it is a matter of months or more long term may open opportunities not normally available There are strategies that are income tested Whilst working full time you or your partner may be unlikely to qualify for this however earning a reduced income becomes a viable option

The Government Co-Contribution is an incentive for low income earners to contribute to Superannuation The Co-

Contribution sees the government match contributions up to $500 for those who earn less than $31920 The maximum Co-Contribution reduces for amounts over this phasing out at $48516 Those that have the funds to make this contribution eff ectively double their investment instantly For many this period where income is reduced is the only opportunity they have to qualify for a Co-Contribution

The Spouse Rebate is another incentive by the government for low income earners to contribute to Superannuation Those who make after tax contributions to their spousersquos Superannuation fund can be entitled to an 18 tax rebate

The maximum contribution for this rebate is $3000 for those earning less than $10800 This maximum reduces for those earning more with the rebate phasing out at $13800 Again the time off work whilst starting a family may be the only time many qualify for this rebate

The most pressing fi nancial planning matter surrounds insurance Although many see insurance as a ldquodirty wordrdquo there is no point in a couplersquos life that they are so fi nancial reliant on each other and the death or disablement of one member of the couple has the potential to fi nancial ruin a family

With a young family if the working spouse was unable to work for as little as a few months with no income coming in at all most families would be in fi nancial hardship

There are a number of insurance options and strategies that can avoid this fi nancial risk

For more information on these strategies and other life events please view our website wwwfuturefi nancialservicescomau

Camillersquos PetsI am so lucky that I can take my dogs to

work with me every day They sleep behind the front reception desk and pop up occasionally to say hello to the customers

Bella is my 13 year old kelpie She had a slight cough for 3 weeks and had chest radiographs and a heart ultrasound performed

Bella was diagnosed with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) a heart disease which causes the heart muscle to lose its ability to contract As the heart is not pumping blood forward eff ectively the blood backs up and causes fl uid to build up in the chest which Bella was then coughing up Bella was started on heart medications and the cough has reduced and she is as happy as ever

The usual outcome for DCM is only a few months and Bella is now in her 7th month

Each day I have with my best friend Bella is a gift

Pony is my Great Dane x Bull Mastiff He is coming up to 3 years of age and he is still stubborn as a mule I was kind of looking for a new dog to keep Pony company when Bella passes away when I

found a new dog at Hawkesbury Pound in October 2013

My new dogs name is Callie she is 15 years of age and is a Great Dane x Italian Greyhound according to the DNA test I had performed Callie is 45kg and looks a lot like Pony except she is a brown harlequin colour I only had Callie for about 1 week before she became unwell She had a fever and she was very quiet Blood tests and ultrasound did not reveal the cause of her illness I sent Callie to see the specialists at SASH at North Ryde where they performed a spinal tap to obtain a sample of her spinal fl uid The spinal fl uid was tested and was negative for bacteria protozoa and fungi Callie was diagnosed with Steroid Responsive Meningitis-Arteritis (SRMA) which is an autoimmune disease which attacks the central nervous

system Thankfully SRMA is treatable Callie was started on a 6 month course of corticosteroids and she was back to normal within 1 week Callie ate and drank like a horse whilst on the corticosteroids which is a normal side eff ect of this drug Callie was weaned off the corticosteroids and thankfully has had no relapse of the meningitis

Bella still runs my household and Pony and Callie are like 2 peas in a pod Every day I have Bella is a blessing and even though I have had time to prepare I will never be ready for the day when Bella passes away

I also have 3 cats and 2 pet sheep but they donrsquot come to work with me

Check out our website for more information wwworchardhillsvetcomau or join us on Facebook

We look forward to meeting you and your pets at Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital and please feel free to pop in anytime and meet the team

Costa Rican TarrazuIn many peoplersquos opinion Costa Rican Tarrazu is one of

the worldrsquos greatest coff ees It has a light clean fl avour and a wonderful fragranceDescription

Costa Rica with its rich well-drained volcanic soil was the fi rst Central American country to grow coff ee and bananas on a commercial basis and both commodities are among its major exports Coff ee was introduced into Costa Rica from Cuba in 1729 and today the industry is one of the best organised in the world

The best Costa Rican coff ee is labelled ldquoSHBrdquo (Strictly Hard Bean ) which means that it has been grown at an altitude above 5000 feet (1500 metres)

Higher altitudes produce better beans because it produces a higher acidity in the bean and also because the colder nights and regular rainfall at these high altitudes cause the beans to mature much slower Both these two aspects create a fuller fl avour

Panic AttacksIf you have ever experienced a panic attack or witnessed

someone having one you will know it can be a very frightening experience

Panic attacks are periods of intense fear or apprehension that come on suddenly They are surprisingly common varying in intensity and duration from minutes to hours

Signs and symptoms of a panic attack include bull A sense of overwhelming amp seemingly uncontrollable

panic fear or anxietybull The thought that you are dying or lsquolosing controlrsquo or

lsquogoing madrsquobull Increased heart rate often feeling like a heart attackbull Diffi culty breathing (feeling that there is not enough

air)bull Excessive perspirationbull Dizziness light-headedness or feeling faintTriggers for panic attacks - basically any fear can trigger a

panic attack ndash the memory of a traumatic experience and the thought that it could re-occur fear of heights amp falling spiders needles fl ying getting lost etc

As an onlooker what can you do Stay calm and assure the person that they are safe Speak gently but assertively and positively amp get some help if necessary If the person is in any danger encourage them to move to a safe area

What can be done to prevent them By working with a therapist to address the underlying fear the severity and frequency of panic attacks can be greatly reduced if not avoided EFT is eff ective safe amp noninvasive and is gaining world-wide recognition for helping people eliminate their fears

Starting a FamilyStarting a family is obviously a huge

moment in a personrsquos life but it is also a time where seeking fi nancial advice is highly recommended

When starting a family the income and expenditure requirements change

immensely Although initial expenses donrsquot grow substantially as children grow older they account for more and more of the family budget This is especially if full time child care or private school fees are involved

The biggest change for most couples is going to a single income for a period of time At the risk of generalising most modern couples are duel income at least before they start having children and their lifestyle becomes reliant on both these incomes

Preparing for living on one income presents some challenges The most eff ective way to prepare for this is to reduce fi nancial commitments leading into having a family This may involve reducing debts cutting some lifestyle costs or building wealth in advance to prepare for reduced income

This reduced income due to time off work whether it is a matter of months or more long term may open opportunities not normally available There are strategies that are income tested Whilst working full time you or your partner may be unlikely to qualify for this however earning a reduced income becomes a viable option

The Government Co-Contribution is an incentive for low income earners to contribute to Superannuation The Co-

Contribution sees the government match contributions up to $500 for those who earn less than $31920 The maximum Co-Contribution reduces for amounts over this phasing out at $48516 Those that have the funds to make this contribution eff ectively double their investment instantly For many this period where income is reduced is the only opportunity they have to qualify for a Co-Contribution

The Spouse Rebate is another incentive by the government for low income earners to contribute to Superannuation Those who make after tax contributions to their spousersquos Superannuation fund can be entitled to an 18 tax rebate

The maximum contribution for this rebate is $3000 for those earning less than $10800 This maximum reduces for those earning more with the rebate phasing out at $13800 Again the time off work whilst starting a family may be the only time many qualify for this rebate

The most pressing fi nancial planning matter surrounds insurance Although many see insurance as a ldquodirty wordrdquo there is no point in a couplersquos life that they are so fi nancial reliant on each other and the death or disablement of one member of the couple has the potential to fi nancial ruin a family

With a young family if the working spouse was unable to work for as little as a few months with no income coming in at all most families would be in fi nancial hardship

There are a number of insurance options and strategies that can avoid this fi nancial risk

For more information on these strategies and other life events please view our website wwwfuturefi nancialservicescomau

Camillersquos PetsI am so lucky that I can take my dogs to

work with me every day They sleep behind the front reception desk and pop up occasionally to say hello to the customers

Bella is my 13 year old kelpie She had a slight cough for 3 weeks and had chest radiographs and a heart ultrasound performed

Bella was diagnosed with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) a heart disease which causes the heart muscle to lose its ability to contract As the heart is not pumping blood forward eff ectively the blood backs up and causes fl uid to build up in the chest which Bella was then coughing up Bella was started on heart medications and the cough has reduced and she is as happy as ever

The usual outcome for DCM is only a few months and Bella is now in her 7th month

Each day I have with my best friend Bella is a gift

Pony is my Great Dane x Bull Mastiff He is coming up to 3 years of age and he is still stubborn as a mule I was kind of looking for a new dog to keep Pony company when Bella passes away when I

found a new dog at Hawkesbury Pound in October 2013

My new dogs name is Callie she is 15 years of age and is a Great Dane x Italian Greyhound according to the DNA test I had performed Callie is 45kg and looks a lot like Pony except she is a brown harlequin colour I only had Callie for about 1 week before she became unwell She had a fever and she was very quiet Blood tests and ultrasound did not reveal the cause of her illness I sent Callie to see the specialists at SASH at North Ryde where they performed a spinal tap to obtain a sample of her spinal fl uid The spinal fl uid was tested and was negative for bacteria protozoa and fungi Callie was diagnosed with Steroid Responsive Meningitis-Arteritis (SRMA) which is an autoimmune disease which attacks the central nervous

system Thankfully SRMA is treatable Callie was started on a 6 month course of corticosteroids and she was back to normal within 1 week Callie ate and drank like a horse whilst on the corticosteroids which is a normal side eff ect of this drug Callie was weaned off the corticosteroids and thankfully has had no relapse of the meningitis

Bella still runs my household and Pony and Callie are like 2 peas in a pod Every day I have Bella is a blessing and even though I have had time to prepare I will never be ready for the day when Bella passes away

I also have 3 cats and 2 pet sheep but they donrsquot come to work with me

Check out our website for more information wwworchardhillsvetcomau or join us on Facebook

We look forward to meeting you and your pets at Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital and please feel free to pop in anytime and meet the team

Panic AttacksIf you have ever experienced a panic attack or witnessed

someone having one you will know it can be a very frightening experience

Panic attacks are periods of intense fear or apprehension that come on suddenly They are surprisingly common varying in intensity and duration from minutes to hours

Signs and symptoms of a panic attack include bull A sense of overwhelming amp seemingly uncontrollable

panic fear or anxietybull The thought that you are dying or lsquolosing controlrsquo or

lsquogoing madrsquobull Increased heart rate often feeling like a heart attackbull Diffi culty breathing (feeling that there is not enough

air)bull Excessive perspirationbull Dizziness light-headedness or feeling faintTriggers for panic attacks - basically any fear can trigger a

panic attack ndash the memory of a traumatic experience and the thought that it could re-occur fear of heights amp falling spiders needles fl ying getting lost etc

As an onlooker what can you do Stay calm and assure the person that they are safe Speak gently but assertively and positively amp get some help if necessary If the person is in any danger encourage them to move to a safe area

What can be done to prevent them By working with a therapist to address the underlying fear the severity and frequency of panic attacks can be greatly reduced if not avoided EFT is eff ective safe amp noninvasive and is gaining world-wide recognition for helping people eliminate their fears

Starting a FamilyStarting a family is obviously a huge

moment in a personrsquos life but it is also a time where seeking fi nancial advice is highly recommended

When starting a family the income and expenditure requirements change

immensely Although initial expenses donrsquot grow substantially as children grow older they account for more and more of the family budget This is especially if full time child care or private school fees are involved

The biggest change for most couples is going to a single income for a period of time At the risk of generalising most modern couples are duel income at least before they start having children and their lifestyle becomes reliant on both these incomes

Preparing for living on one income presents some challenges The most eff ective way to prepare for this is to reduce fi nancial commitments leading into having a family This may involve reducing debts cutting some lifestyle costs or building wealth in advance to prepare for reduced income

This reduced income due to time off work whether it is a matter of months or more long term may open opportunities not normally available There are strategies that are income tested Whilst working full time you or your partner may be unlikely to qualify for this however earning a reduced income becomes a viable option

The Government Co-Contribution is an incentive for low income earners to contribute to Superannuation The Co-

Contribution sees the government match contributions up to $500 for those who earn less than $31920 The maximum Co-Contribution reduces for amounts over this phasing out at $48516 Those that have the funds to make this contribution eff ectively double their investment instantly For many this period where income is reduced is the only opportunity they have to qualify for a Co-Contribution

The Spouse Rebate is another incentive by the government for low income earners to contribute to Superannuation Those who make after tax contributions to their spousersquos Superannuation fund can be entitled to an 18 tax rebate

The maximum contribution for this rebate is $3000 for those earning less than $10800 This maximum reduces for those earning more with the rebate phasing out at $13800 Again the time off work whilst starting a family may be the only time many qualify for this rebate

The most pressing fi nancial planning matter surrounds insurance Although many see insurance as a ldquodirty wordrdquo there is no point in a couplersquos life that they are so fi nancial reliant on each other and the death or disablement of one member of the couple has the potential to fi nancial ruin a family

With a young family if the working spouse was unable to work for as little as a few months with no income coming in at all most families would be in fi nancial hardship

There are a number of insurance options and strategies that can avoid this fi nancial risk

For more information on these strategies and other life events please view our website wwwfuturefi nancialservicescomau

Camillersquos PetsI am so lucky that I can take my dogs to

work with me every day They sleep behind the front reception desk and pop up occasionally to say hello to the customers

Bella is my 13 year old kelpie She had a slight cough for 3 weeks and had chest radiographs and a heart ultrasound performed

Bella was diagnosed with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) a heart disease which causes the heart muscle to lose its ability to contract As the heart is not pumping blood forward eff ectively the blood backs up and causes fl uid to build up in the chest which Bella was then coughing up Bella was started on heart medications and the cough has reduced and she is as happy as ever

The usual outcome for DCM is only a few months and Bella is now in her 7th month

Each day I have with my best friend Bella is a gift

Pony is my Great Dane x Bull Mastiff He is coming up to 3 years of age and he is still stubborn as a mule I was kind of looking for a new dog to keep Pony company when Bella passes away when I

found a new dog at Hawkesbury Pound in October 2013

My new dogs name is Callie she is 15 years of age and is a Great Dane x Italian Greyhound according to the DNA test I had performed Callie is 45kg and looks a lot like Pony except she is a brown harlequin colour I only had Callie for about 1 week before she became unwell She had a fever and she was very quiet Blood tests and ultrasound did not reveal the cause of her illness I sent Callie to see the specialists at SASH at North Ryde where they performed a spinal tap to obtain a sample of her spinal fl uid The spinal fl uid was tested and was negative for bacteria protozoa and fungi Callie was diagnosed with Steroid Responsive Meningitis-Arteritis (SRMA) which is an autoimmune disease which attacks the central nervous

system Thankfully SRMA is treatable Callie was started on a 6 month course of corticosteroids and she was back to normal within 1 week Callie ate and drank like a horse whilst on the corticosteroids which is a normal side eff ect of this drug Callie was weaned off the corticosteroids and thankfully has had no relapse of the meningitis

Bella still runs my household and Pony and Callie are like 2 peas in a pod Every day I have Bella is a blessing and even though I have had time to prepare I will never be ready for the day when Bella passes away

I also have 3 cats and 2 pet sheep but they donrsquot come to work with me

Check out our website for more information wwworchardhillsvetcomau or join us on Facebook

We look forward to meeting you and your pets at Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital and please feel free to pop in anytime and meet the team

Starting a FamilyStarting a family is obviously a huge

moment in a personrsquos life but it is also a time where seeking fi nancial advice is highly recommended

When starting a family the income and expenditure requirements change

immensely Although initial expenses donrsquot grow substantially as children grow older they account for more and more of the family budget This is especially if full time child care or private school fees are involved

The biggest change for most couples is going to a single income for a period of time At the risk of generalising most modern couples are duel income at least before they start having children and their lifestyle becomes reliant on both these incomes

Preparing for living on one income presents some challenges The most eff ective way to prepare for this is to reduce fi nancial commitments leading into having a family This may involve reducing debts cutting some lifestyle costs or building wealth in advance to prepare for reduced income

This reduced income due to time off work whether it is a matter of months or more long term may open opportunities not normally available There are strategies that are income tested Whilst working full time you or your partner may be unlikely to qualify for this however earning a reduced income becomes a viable option

The Government Co-Contribution is an incentive for low income earners to contribute to Superannuation The Co-

Contribution sees the government match contributions up to $500 for those who earn less than $31920 The maximum Co-Contribution reduces for amounts over this phasing out at $48516 Those that have the funds to make this contribution eff ectively double their investment instantly For many this period where income is reduced is the only opportunity they have to qualify for a Co-Contribution

The Spouse Rebate is another incentive by the government for low income earners to contribute to Superannuation Those who make after tax contributions to their spousersquos Superannuation fund can be entitled to an 18 tax rebate

The maximum contribution for this rebate is $3000 for those earning less than $10800 This maximum reduces for those earning more with the rebate phasing out at $13800 Again the time off work whilst starting a family may be the only time many qualify for this rebate

The most pressing fi nancial planning matter surrounds insurance Although many see insurance as a ldquodirty wordrdquo there is no point in a couplersquos life that they are so fi nancial reliant on each other and the death or disablement of one member of the couple has the potential to fi nancial ruin a family

With a young family if the working spouse was unable to work for as little as a few months with no income coming in at all most families would be in fi nancial hardship

There are a number of insurance options and strategies that can avoid this fi nancial risk

For more information on these strategies and other life events please view our website wwwfuturefi nancialservicescomau

Camillersquos PetsI am so lucky that I can take my dogs to

work with me every day They sleep behind the front reception desk and pop up occasionally to say hello to the customers

Bella is my 13 year old kelpie She had a slight cough for 3 weeks and had chest radiographs and a heart ultrasound performed

Bella was diagnosed with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) a heart disease which causes the heart muscle to lose its ability to contract As the heart is not pumping blood forward eff ectively the blood backs up and causes fl uid to build up in the chest which Bella was then coughing up Bella was started on heart medications and the cough has reduced and she is as happy as ever

The usual outcome for DCM is only a few months and Bella is now in her 7th month

Each day I have with my best friend Bella is a gift

Pony is my Great Dane x Bull Mastiff He is coming up to 3 years of age and he is still stubborn as a mule I was kind of looking for a new dog to keep Pony company when Bella passes away when I

found a new dog at Hawkesbury Pound in October 2013

My new dogs name is Callie she is 15 years of age and is a Great Dane x Italian Greyhound according to the DNA test I had performed Callie is 45kg and looks a lot like Pony except she is a brown harlequin colour I only had Callie for about 1 week before she became unwell She had a fever and she was very quiet Blood tests and ultrasound did not reveal the cause of her illness I sent Callie to see the specialists at SASH at North Ryde where they performed a spinal tap to obtain a sample of her spinal fl uid The spinal fl uid was tested and was negative for bacteria protozoa and fungi Callie was diagnosed with Steroid Responsive Meningitis-Arteritis (SRMA) which is an autoimmune disease which attacks the central nervous

system Thankfully SRMA is treatable Callie was started on a 6 month course of corticosteroids and she was back to normal within 1 week Callie ate and drank like a horse whilst on the corticosteroids which is a normal side eff ect of this drug Callie was weaned off the corticosteroids and thankfully has had no relapse of the meningitis

Bella still runs my household and Pony and Callie are like 2 peas in a pod Every day I have Bella is a blessing and even though I have had time to prepare I will never be ready for the day when Bella passes away

I also have 3 cats and 2 pet sheep but they donrsquot come to work with me

Check out our website for more information wwworchardhillsvetcomau or join us on Facebook

We look forward to meeting you and your pets at Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital and please feel free to pop in anytime and meet the team

Camillersquos PetsI am so lucky that I can take my dogs to

work with me every day They sleep behind the front reception desk and pop up occasionally to say hello to the customers

Bella is my 13 year old kelpie She had a slight cough for 3 weeks and had chest radiographs and a heart ultrasound performed

Bella was diagnosed with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) a heart disease which causes the heart muscle to lose its ability to contract As the heart is not pumping blood forward eff ectively the blood backs up and causes fl uid to build up in the chest which Bella was then coughing up Bella was started on heart medications and the cough has reduced and she is as happy as ever

The usual outcome for DCM is only a few months and Bella is now in her 7th month

Each day I have with my best friend Bella is a gift

Pony is my Great Dane x Bull Mastiff He is coming up to 3 years of age and he is still stubborn as a mule I was kind of looking for a new dog to keep Pony company when Bella passes away when I

found a new dog at Hawkesbury Pound in October 2013

My new dogs name is Callie she is 15 years of age and is a Great Dane x Italian Greyhound according to the DNA test I had performed Callie is 45kg and looks a lot like Pony except she is a brown harlequin colour I only had Callie for about 1 week before she became unwell She had a fever and she was very quiet Blood tests and ultrasound did not reveal the cause of her illness I sent Callie to see the specialists at SASH at North Ryde where they performed a spinal tap to obtain a sample of her spinal fl uid The spinal fl uid was tested and was negative for bacteria protozoa and fungi Callie was diagnosed with Steroid Responsive Meningitis-Arteritis (SRMA) which is an autoimmune disease which attacks the central nervous

system Thankfully SRMA is treatable Callie was started on a 6 month course of corticosteroids and she was back to normal within 1 week Callie ate and drank like a horse whilst on the corticosteroids which is a normal side eff ect of this drug Callie was weaned off the corticosteroids and thankfully has had no relapse of the meningitis

Bella still runs my household and Pony and Callie are like 2 peas in a pod Every day I have Bella is a blessing and even though I have had time to prepare I will never be ready for the day when Bella passes away

I also have 3 cats and 2 pet sheep but they donrsquot come to work with me

Check out our website for more information wwworchardhillsvetcomau or join us on Facebook

We look forward to meeting you and your pets at Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital and please feel free to pop in anytime and meet the team
