Well as much as I wanted to let everyone know earlier I thought it was best to wait til she recovered a bit.

Wednesday 2 weeks ago my wife had a 2 inch tumour removed from the back of the frontal love in the brain. The operation went well even by the surgeon, he said he is 99% confident that he managed to remove it all in 1 piece.

So far she is recovering well. The sight is still limited but improving a little bit every day. She has a lot more energy.

We are just taking each day as it comes

I think this calls for another bottle of bubbly and a bunch of flowers for Mrs Maverick..

I'm in for $20 - who else is in?

Try and stop me, I'm in...

Transferred, cheers Ron.
The greatest gift you can give someone is your time, because when you give your time you are giving a portion of your life that you will never get back.

I was about to make an entry on the daily rant thread about how we missed out on a cruise for my birthday... Now my whole family has to go without us...
Then I paused on this thread,  pulled my head in,  and started counting my blessings instead.
Mav, I can't imagine what you and Mrs Mav are going through,  and I don't think I could express in words how sorry I am that this has happened to you.
I hope you are getting the love and support you both need at this time.
Thoughts are with you and your family. Xxx

Thanks. We are truly blown away with the support and donations we have received from this fantastic forum.

It's like 1 big family.
