Nearly Ready to move in- Our House




Our house is nearing completion. Ruth will come to Kuwait on September 6th, we hope that before that they will have moved into the house. Adam will stay in Cebu with his uncle and cousin. He enjoys all the new experiences like riding a 'Tricad'. Here in Kuwait I continue to check out of Kuwait government offices, this involves getting clearance from the Bank, Police, Electricity immigration etc,. I continue to receive treatment, however, my general health is good and I pray it will continue so. On Sept 26th Ruth and I will fly to Cebu and take up residence there, until I move to the UK for more treatment.

Update from Kuwait




Countdown has begun. We are on our way out of Kuwait after almost 15 years. Ruth and Adam are in the Philippines, working on moving into our new house. Adam is attending 6th grade at the Indianna Areospace University. ( a very grand name) Adam is in the Elementary School. The school is only about 5 Kms from our house, and so it is very convenient for Ruth to drop him off at school each day.




Our house continues to be finished, finishing touches seem to take a while. The developer will not take possession from the builder until all the little snags are attended to.


Ruth will depart from the Philippines to Kuwait on September 6th, we will then return together to Cebu on 26th September. Adam will stay in Cebu with his uncle and cousin.




I continue to receive treatment for NH Lymphoma, the radiation regime as been stopped and I am undergoing more Chemotherapy, depending on the response we will either be in the philippines for a short period of time before going to the UK to complete my treatment. We value your prayers for us as a family during these days of moving, sickness, building and fitting out a new house, and lastly dealing with the beaucracy of leaving Kuwait. I will put a couple of pictures of the house so you can see the progress.




My Mum and Dad recently celebrated their 90th Birthdays, after a short time in hospital Dad is back at the Nursing home and doing well. Mum continues to live at home with my brother looking after them.
