He claims to be excited about giving country living a

go and has been busy meeting the subscribers of the

Whale Disentanglement

It’s very unusual for a whale that we have disentangled to be re-sighted, but we are happy to report that a 9m

humpback whale we worked on last week near Albany

has been spotted near Augusta- and even better, it is

now completely free of rope!

Amazingly, the whale has been spotted by Whale

Watch Western Australianear Augusta with no sign of

the embedded rope. Continued on page 4...

Hi Walpole,

This is a wee missive in response to, a story 24th July by Glenda Grigg, on her fathers (unnecessary) pain

full demise, well done Glenda.

Jacqueline my daughter, is instrumental in making

put together this email , on the hope of maybe saving others such trauma.

This email is for like minded people, like Glenda’s

dad and persons who want to control their own

demise.

The book that gave me so much peace of mind, and

put squarely in my hands control of where and

when, “I” decide to shuffle off this mortal coil etc.

To put it plainly, the author takes you step by step on

how to end ones life, painlessly and pleasantly, and it

does not cost a fortune. Also it has a comprehensive

data on what methods not to use, and the dangers

therein.

When I said it gave me peace of mind, that is an

understatement , it was more akin to me winning the

lotto and giving me a F.U. fund against the” Holy

Wullies “of this world.

The book I recommend to like minded people is

( Five Last Acts 11 expanded, revised 2015 ) By

Chris Docker.

I would feel so selfish if I did not share my good fortune on finding this book ,with like minded folk.

One can get a copy of this gem , on the internet with

any reputable book company.

Ps. If you are wondering what Holy Wullies

are, Google it under the name of the famous Poet Robert Burns.

~Robert H. Toole.

Looking Back…….with Molly

(continuing the story of Sister Jane Anderson)

In June 1932, Sister Jane Anderson closed the door

of the Church of England Mission House in

Hazelvale for the last time in preparation for the

move to Nornalup to establish a Cottage Hospital.

Deaconess Fleck had moved to Sydney and was

replaced by Sister Bazett. A Nornalup resident generously made a house available for the Sisters

and the Cottage Hospital was officially opened in

July 1932.

Here the Sisters' care covered a wide spectrum

including accident cases from timber camps, new babies, tonsilitis, and at one time an isolation ward

was set up for the treatment of diphtheria. The

Sisters depended greatly on the doctor in Nornalup at

the time.

Doctor Burnside also operated a dairy farm in the

district and often attended urgent cases still clad in

his overalls and rubber boots!

Long hours and constant work took their toll and

finally ill health forced the two Sisters to return to

Ireland in May 1934. The eventual parting was sad

for all concerned.

Years later the district showed its love, respect and

appreciation for Sister Anderson by having her name

included on the Pioneer Womens Roll of Honour in

Kings Park and the bell installed in the tower in

Walpole in 2014 bears her name. Note: A more detailed account of the Mission House

and the Cottage Hospital is with the Walpole

Nornalup and Districts Historical Association.(ie.

Including names and treatment of settlement

pioneers at the little Hospital.)

Just prior to compiling the article in 1980, I wrote to

Sister Anderson for information and in her reply to my letter she said she had only just

destroyed her records of births at the Cottage

Hospital.

I was just a little too late for that gem of

information…….

The photo is mine and shows (left to right) Sister Anderson, Sister Bazett and an assistant Peggy

Voce. In the background is a patient.

In the

Walpole area

the

1st Tuesday

Languages of Love Workshop Holly Beek from Relationships Australia came to Walpole CRC on Tuesday 6th August and delivered a great workshop on the languages of love to our small community. The workshop talked about the different love languages we have so that we can understand ourselves and our children at a deeper level. This helps us meet our children’s emotional needs in practical ways. It develops and improves our emotional connection and communication with our children and other significant relationships. Holly had amazing feedback from the course participants as they all enjoyed the relaxed and open environment and how the subject was talked about in a practical way with real experiences used. Holly is hoping to come back soon with more exceptional seminars. Walpole CRC will keep you posted. ~Cherie Smith, Walpole Community Resource

centre Manager

Independent Office Established For Complaints about Health

Related Services The Health and

Disability

Services

Complaints

Office (HaDSCO) is an independent statutory authority providing

independent resolution services for complaints

relating to health, disability and mental health services

at no cost to the community. In a recent

teleconference at the Centre, HaDSCO provided an

overview of its functions.

The scope of HaDSCO’s authority includes public

services, private services, prison services and services

provided to involuntary patients. Most every type of

health service provider and service related to health

care are covered. Complaints may also be referred to and from HaDSCO and specialized medical boards.

Complaints may be made through HaDSCO’s enquiry

line, online, or preferably in writing via Post or email.

Complaints must generally be made within two years.

Common complaints include whether a service provider has acted unreasonably by

• Not delivering a service,

• Providing a service that should not have been provided,

• Delaying or denying access to records

• Breaching confidentiality,

• Charging an excessive fee, or

• In the manner of providing a service.

Complaints can be resolved through conciliation,

negotiated settlement, and occasionally investigation

of complaints. Other outcomes include further

explanation of the service, an apology, refunds or waiver of fees, a change in policy or procedure, or

counselling. The Office uses the information gathered

to educate and train health service providers in the

prevention and resolution of complaints.

In sum, individuals, their representatives, or other

health service providers are all encouraged to initiate

a complaint with HaDSCO if their provider has acted

unreasonably in providing or not providing a health

care service and the provider has not been proactive in

resolving the issue on their own.

Further information about HaDSCO, the types of

complaints it handles, and the process itself can be

found at https://www.hadsco.wa.gov.au.

Snail Tails What are little boys made of

What are little boys made of Slugs and snails and puppy dog tails

That’s what little boys are made of. A well known children’s nursery rhyme from the late 17th century - it appears that even back then my distant ancestors were well known. I bet they were just as much trouble then as we are now! If there is one thing we slimy creatures don’t like it’s being dry. So if a ring of dry matter is around your new seedlings we can’t get to them. Coffee grounds,

crushed eggshells, sawdust, wood ash, wheat bran

(dries us up inside), wool waste (shoddy) are just some of the things we hate. Diatomaceous earth, though not good for humans to breathe, is really effective. A shallow container set into the soil with beer in it is irresistible to us where we will drown in a drunken bliss. Copper strips placed around pot rims or seedlings give unpleasant sensations and we turn away.

We hide under large flat leaves, bricks and small planks raised slightly off the ground - anywhere that is cool and moist. I’ve heard of people going on snail hunts with their children and offering rewards for the most snails collected. Then, the nerve of them, they feed us to their chickens or ducks!

Snail pellets are very convenient to use but for the safety of all my other little friends (birds, lizards, etc) only ones that have iron phosphate as the active

ingredient should be used.
