Brain surgery – complete it mate. Wow that feels good to say.  To be on the other side of this surgery now is just amazing. At times it’s felt so far away and so so scary. Today tough, was nothing but calm. The hardest part for me has been the not eating – I’ve been…

Popping on for one last pre Nev blog! My bags are packed, my alarm is set for 5am to eat my last meal whilst I’m not nil by mouth and I’ve had an EVERYTHING bath in preparation for the big GA. I have been told I can go in a little bit later today instead…

I can’t even tell you how lovely it was to spend a night away with Oll in York this weekend – just the two of us. It’s something we never did before and we joked that maybe we don’t wait until I’m on deaths door to do it again! That trips like that should be…

After my experience at the women’s circle on Sunday – I continue to feel at peace with Nev. I can’t explain it very well, it’s just an inner calm feeling. But with this brain tumour being at an incurable stage now – we’re room mates for life. I best get used to him right? He…

I wasn’t going to blog today. But I feel compelled to after the day I’ve had! These blogs have always been a way to help me vent – get my thoughts and feelings out of head and off my chest. They help me so much. And I totally do them out of selfishness. They’re for…

Me and willow have a deal. She sleeps in our bed on Saturday nights. We’ve had this deal for well over a year now. Every Saturday without fail, we have girls night and she sleeps in my bed. Oll gets demoted to the sofa or Willows room. He usually spends it watching football all night…

So I had my wobble at the beginning of the week, me and Oll both did. When re faced with all of the news, facts, risks and potential prognosis’ at our appointment on Tuesday it very much felt doom and gloom. It felt like the end of our world again. I felt like the normality…

I had a positive start to this week. I was getting my positivity back, getting my appetite back, getting my energy back. Yes, this all still loomed over me and I never awoke from this nightmare I now live in, but I was functioning well. I was managing to do the school runs, cook the…

I haven’t got loads of words recently, but I guess that’s okay. Sometimes it will be like that. After all, this is all I seem to talk about now so it gets a bit depressing to say the least! And we’re still in limbo waiting for our neurology appointment on Tuesday to find out more…
