Dale: The Update
Dale had his MRI on Monday and the Surgeon has seen him and booked him in for surgery at 8.30am tomorrow (UK time). He is confident that he will be able to get most of it. Dale was sent home for a few days to get his affairs in order, just in case!!! He has also written his daughter a letter, something I would think would be the hardest thing in the world to do. I have spoken to him and he is feeling very positive. He'll have another MRI on tue/Wed so they can see how much is left and the biopsy results should be back the same day. Regardless of anything else he's not allowed to drive for at least 6 months, and hopefully he will be joining my folks when they come out in October for 6 weeks (co's they managed to reschedule they're flight, woo hoo)
for a positive outcome. Thanks for the support guys it's really appreciated x

With a big chunk of brain cut out I've informed him he's already half way to being Australianised.

Doh!! OK Dale is my brother who has the Brain tumour. Sorry thought I had put his name on the last post.
I'll get Sean to change the title.
