Brain Tumour Research.

With Martin’s kind permission (long standing member of the Disco3 forum).

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Last September my wife had a seizure and was diagnosed with a massive brain tumour. A week later she underwent a 22hr op to remove a 6.5cm tumour which was thankfully benign. Five weeks later she had a massive infection so it was another long op which resulted in her having her forehead removed. This was finally replaced with a titanium plate in February. Since then she has made a remarkable recovery to live a normal life in our new (to us) home.

The irony is that all this happened five days into her early retirement.

She would love to give something back for the professional and dedicated care that she received and has just started to fundraise for "The Neurosurgery Research Fund" at Southmead Hospital, Bristol to help further research into brain tumours. She is already planning afternoon teas etc.

We do appreciate that members must be bombarded with charity requests.

Even a few pounds would be gratefully received.

Thank you for reading. 2008 Black Range Rover Sports HST, 4.2 Supercharged.

England 

We met a lovely lady at antenatal classes when swmbo was pregnant with our first child who lived round the corner from us. We soon became close friends and had baby daughters within weeks of each other

Sadly not long after she was diagnosed with a brain tumour and left with brain damage after the op and never came home to watch her daughter grow up - she died from a heart attack about a year later - she was in her mid 20s

Our daughters grew up together and were like sisters which added to the loss so I'm more than happy to donate in her memory and wish your wife a speedy recovery Bow down Wanted a Series 2 LR since childhood but previously owned MY16 Disco Sport HSE TD4 Auto, MY13 RR Sport Black Edition TDV6 Auto, MY10 RR Sport HSE TDV6 Auto, 2007 Freelander 1 Freestyle TD4 Soft Top, 2009 Freelander 2 GS TD4 Auto, 2007 Freelander 2 GS TD4, 2004 Disco 2 Metropolis Auto, 2002 Disco 2 GS, 2000 Freelander 1 SE TD4 SW

Still hoping for a S2 one day!

Mrs P

Every day I feel better than the day before and this is made possible by knowing that there are many incredibly generous people out there who I don’t even know Bow down

I am amazed and humbled that I have already reached my target but hope that funds continue to be donated to enable further research into brain tumours.
