Update

Surgery was performed yesterday. All of the tumour was removed. There was a cyst in the middle which was drained. The tumour was around the edge of the previous one, so cells were probably left after the previous resection. Last time they only did a CT after resection. This time they did a MRI with Contrast. That confirmed complete excision.

Plan now is to get the Gamma knife boost ASAP. They said within 4 weeks. I want two weeks. Surgeon has already been hassling people about it, even though it isn't he's remit which is good. Usually I make such a pain of myself that things get done. Tomorrow I will be on the phone for an update.
Hopefully we are back to where we were 9 weeks ago.

Thanks for everyones positive messages.
