A new issue of Dripline is out!

The November-January 2020 issue of our newsletter, Dripline, is out now and available here or from our Dripline page.

The November to January issue normally celebrates a happy time of year – Christmas, New Year’s and summer. However, along with the happy events, this issue also remembers two of PNDU’s members who sadly lost their battle for life and we read tributes from a loving sister and a close friend. One of our members, living close to some of the relentless fires that are raging around our country, decided to evacuate and she writes, giving us a glimpse into the tense situation being experienced by so many of our population. On a happier note, two of our members have won prestigious awards; and there is also a member’s story; we read about a Starlight Foundation wish enjoyed by an HPNer family; Kelly shares her romantic wedding vows renewal organised by her husband; we learn the story behind PNDU’s first Published Paper, with a link to it in a medical journal; we read of the joy our HPNer’s pets give them; and Alexander, a young teen member, shares his school assignment based on PN bag covers, with us, as well as catching up on PNDU events and more. I hope you enjoy all aspects of HPN shared with you.
