Woohoo!!! I’ve just had my latest brain scan results and the gamma knife treatment has worked!! 🎉🎉
There’s some scar tissue left as expected, but the regrowth’s been killed off and the consultant’s really pleased! Phew! 😊
Thinking of
@ChristineBore
at Christmas. I contacted her lovely family last week to say she is in our thoughts.
Her daughter said they are doing OK. They miss their mum loads but are trying to have a nice Christmas for her. She wouldn't want them to be sad ❤️
Please share 🙏🎄
Good morning everyone! 😊
On my birthday I wanted to remember those who sadly won’t have any more. In particular
@ChristineBore
and Laura (
@shitscaredmum
).
I’ll raise a glass (or two) in their memory tonight! 🍷😊
Friday update from
@ChristineBore
- they said surgery again next year is possible. “It means I may have longer than a year to survive. We start planning next month to zap the 10% remaining. I can pray now and hoping to stay alive longer than a year. My family and me so happy!” 💙
Good morning everyone! ☺️
Sadly, due to lifestyle changes this will be my last “Morning” post for a while, I’m really sorry.
I’m not going anywhere, but I won’t have the time to respond to everyone as I always want to.
Please take care ☺️

Good morning everyone! ☺️
Hope you’re all okay.
I now realise I’d dismissed my 2nd brain tumour as trivial when it was actually a huge deal for me.
My approach of being positive and dismissing it left me feeling drained.
Realising thus should now help me recover more quickly ☺️
@ChristineBore
update: I’m understandably getting asked a lot about how Christine is.
She’s getting lots of specialist care, support and love at home.
We swap messages with her every day to help keep her spirits up, though she’s weaker and sleeping more” ❤️
Please RT.
@ChristineBore
update: Christine’s family have let me know she is okay, and is now back on the ward following her surgery. She feels ill from the anesthetic but they said the op went well. ❤️

@ChristineBore
update: Chris has asked me to say she remains in hospital being treated for her infection. Not sure on next steps wrt whether to start chemo, but she’s keeping positive and in good spirits. And she urges everyone to follow me! 😘

update -
I enjoyed a lovely video call with Christine and hubby yesterday. We chatted about her pets, family, football and her current situation. Chris is determined to enjoy every day.
It was a lovely upbeat call and she still has her cheeky sense of humour 😊xx
@ChristineBore

Christine’s taking a short break from Twitter to concentrate fully on her ongoing treatment and her extended family.
Please retweet to let all her friends know ❤️
