Remember me & my photos?
I disappeared from the beginning of November but am now about 50% back to normal and hope to get out taking photos again. Where did I disappear to? Well, I was in intense pain and the cause of the pain was totally mis-diagnosed by a doctor. The result? I spent a month with very little sleep, little food and could not lie down to rest or sleep. I lost 12 kilograms. Then came the rescue. On arriving at Palmerston North hospital the real cause of my problem was diagnosed within an hour. I then spent 8 days being treated by the respiratory specialists for an infection in my lungs . They have my deep gratitude and admiration for their speedy diagnosis, treatment and long-term support. I won’t mention what I think about the doctor who told me I had torn a muscle in my back, just that as a result of his diagnosis the infection had a free month to enjoy unrestricted growth in my lungs.

Please follow our top tips to reduce the risk of mail theft:
✉️ Clear your letterbox in a timely manner
✉️ Put a hold on your mail delivery if you’re going away
✉️ Provide clear delivery instructions for couriers to leave a package safely hidden or secured within your property
✉️ Install security cameras and/or security camera messaging near your letterbox or front of property
✉️ Where practical, consider click and collect over delivery
✉️ Send parcels to a work address or ensuring you're home when they arrive
✉️ Contact Police (111 for immediate issues or 105 if it is after the fact) if you see people loitering around vehicles or looking into car windows
✉️ Engage in neighbourhood groups so more people can keep an eye out for suspicious activity

These tips are being shared after a 44-year-old woman will appear in Pukekohe District Court on 28 March charged with theft.
An alleged mail thief in the Pukekohe area has hand-delivered herself into Police, following assistance from the community.
Counties Manukau South Senior Sergeant MJ Riddle says Police were aware of locals discussing a mail theft on social media. A report was made to Police at the time in January and had included enough detail including CCTV footage and a vehicle of interest. Following Police enquiries, the woman has brought herself into the Pukekohe Police Station a few days later

“This is a great result for the community and a timely reminder to the public to continue reporting any thefts from letterboxes.”
Senior Sergeant Riddle says
“Our community should be able to receive parcels and mail without concern of interference but unfortunately there are people in our communities who take advantage of opportunities to commit thefts from mail boxes and front porches."

“We encourage anyone who has been the victim of dishonesty offending to report it as soon as possible,” she says."
