Today my 17.5 year old Cassie hit the buffers and had to go to the great walking track in the sky.
We got her as a wonderful bright puppy of utterly indeterminate breed and she helped us raise a great daughter who loved her deeply.
Cassie's uncompromising and unconditional care and love stands in contrast to what I see around today. Pretty damn sad.
Vale Cassie - I sure won't ever forget you. Your trust when things hurt and your joy in life for most of the time is a lesson for us all.
Daddy.
This blog is totally independent, unpaid and has only three major objectives.
The first is to inform readers of news and happenings in the e-Health domain, both here in Australia and world-wide.
The second is to provide commentary on e-Health in Australia and to foster improvement where I can.
The third is to encourage discussion of the matters raised in the blog so hopefully readers can get a balanced view of what is really happening and what successes are being achieved.
Quote Of The Year
Timeless Quotes - Sadly The Late Paul Shetler - "Its not Your Health Record it's a Government Record Of Your Health Information"
or
H. L. Mencken - "For every complex problem there is an answer that is clear, simple, and wrong."

Sincere condolences on your loss David, I am sure that Cassie was a great companion and friend.
I'd like to take this opportunity to thank you for what you are doing for the Australasian health IT community and indeed your contribution to the health sector as a whole.
You play a vitally important role, which is highly valued by a number of people. You do so without recompense of any kind and often in the face of harsh and unjustified criticism from those "who know not what they do".
Bless you David.
Totally agree with the Tom's sentiment, David -- both on the loss of a dear pet, and in thanking you for the fabulous job you do. Yours is probably the only blog I read immediately it hits my inbox. Hope the sadness mellows quickly for you.

Totally agree with Tom's sentiment on both the loss of your dear pet -- and in thanking you for the great work you do compiling this blog. It's about the only one I read as soon as it hits my inbox. Always a good take on things, no matter how silly it seems in the media.
Hope your sadness mellows quickly and the happy memories of Cassie are many.

Those wonderful Sunday night family dinners, made all the sweeter with a lovely family, despicably tasty wine and that inimitable champion dog, will not be the same without Cass. X
