Message from Wade – 29/7/2026

G’day everybody, due to all the terrific messages and enquiries from everybody asking how I am going, we decided to do a quick video today from the Echuca Hospital to give everybody a brief update on how I am travelling and my progress.

I have been in hospital since 29th December last year, for the last 204 days, and got clearance to leave hospital on 20th July, which I have now done.

We are now on the long, slow, hard road to recovery.

Many people might think that now that I am out of hospital, that everything is back to normal, but that is not yet the case, we are still working hard to achieve that. It is still difficult to walk properly, but with the aid of a walking stick, I can shuffle on a bit.

I haven’t been able to go back to the farm, as things there are not suitable, so have a bit of a look at the video here and see what you think.
