My Lovely husband
Earlier this year I had a rant after my second cancerversary when I found out that my lovely supportive husband had a brain tumour and you on this site gave me so much support, I do not know where I would be without you all - well We have been to kings college hospital London today for my husband(stuart) to have a MRI scan and they have finally decided it is benign and has not got bigger in the last six months. The consultant says no need to see him anymore and then turned to me and said how was I doing after herceptin and I said fingers crossed very well
It has made my day finding out that Michele is doing well also.

Oh Janie....What wonderful news. I can only imagine the joy you must be feeling. Thanks so much for letting us know.
Cherish each day sweetheart. Life is short (dont' we know it) and there are no guarantees. Hang on tight - hug plenty - and love like there is no tomorrow.
Thanking God for this wonderful news.

That is great! So happy for the good news. Please do keep an eye on the tumor as nothing that is growing inside of the brain can really be considered 'benigh'.
My brain tumor was considered 'benigh' because it was very, very slow growing. When it was getting too big for me, it created problems and I had to take it out.

Oh Janie, I am so happy for you both. Please grab Stuart and give him the hug that I cannot. I am so excited about this news, tears are blinding me during this post. I did want to inquire about his health but have found myself so busy lately. Know that you both have been in my thoughts and now they are even happier. Now hurry up and give his big huggies from Believe51!!!>>Marie
