Hi guys...quick update...I went through so much to get to where I am today, I was blessed with the help and knowledge of a surgeon visiting from overseas and had the majority of the tumours removed on July 27th. There were many doubts by all regarding the surgery and anaesthesia however I felt overwhelming peace going into it all and after a 6 hour surgery woke to a beaming team of doctors and nurses. I cannot thank you enough for all your prayers, thoughts and well wishes which I truly believe made everything possible that occurred. Not only did I have a world renowned surgeon performing my operation but the majority of the costs were covered by his research and teaching grants so I could not have asked for a better possible outcome to all the difficulties I had faced leading up the the operation. I did get some infections delaying further treatment but am now nearly 5 weeks into that now and will find out tomorrow how things are going with that. It's not pleasant as some you know as you've either faced it yourself or know someone who has and I battle with myself more than anything else wanting to do more, be more than my body will allow right now but I see way more hope and future now than I have for a while. While my chances of complete recovery are debatable I figure I can't possibly lose this one, I've been so blessed this far and am determined to stay positive as I can. I just did a mass upload filling in Jan, some of Feb and March. I hope to be uploading on a regular basis soon and catching up with you all again. Some shots are pretty lame but you get what you get and I was happy to just to be able to take photos when I could.
PS. The long hair has gone short and is getting less but that's cool...you'll have to wait a while to see any pics of that, I'm a little behind :P
Well Sarah-Jane, I have been praying for you for a long time, and you have been on my mind, as I wondered how things had gone. This is such an uplifting and positive report from you, abnd it confirms the power and influence of prayer,for many havebeen lifting you up to God. When I happened to see your name and photo, I could not believe it. Wow, I immmediately had a big smile on my face. You are a trooper, and prayers will continue. Hope the family is doing well. Take care my friend, and again, what a pleasant surprise to see you again.

It is good to hear from you! I have been praying for you and wondering how your were doing. I was diagnosed with a tumor on Tuesday of this week. The doctor will not know if it is cancerous or not until after I have surgery. Your words gave me hope.
Hurray, Hurray!!!! Thanks for letting us know and keeping us in the loop. We have all been thinking of you and wondering how you've been doing. So glad to hear the positive news!
Yippy! I've been wondering how you were doing and as luck would have it this is my first time back to sneak peaks at other people's projects in a while. Keep that smile on your face and know how happy we all are for your uplifting news.
I literally just went to look at your project the day you posted this! I was thinking about you so much. I'm so glad to hear from you and I'm thrilled that things are going well. It's wonderful news and I will continue hoping for more positive news.
