Age would love to hear from you!

Over four weeks now in hospital and no matter how pretty those physios are or cute the med students are, things can get a bit dull for Age......

There is the high possibility he will be moved to the rehab hospital today, if not, then this week.

In any case, please call him in his mobile as he has it on all the time, as well as skype him. He likes to talk on skype alot better as if you have the facility, you can see him - and communication is always better when you can see someone.

His skype is his name adrian.evett

Age sees the kids - with good news

Small steps is what we are all after- and it was wonderful to be able to see Age so happy to see the kids tonight.

They miss their dad so much...






Some great news received today was that he may be transferred to Eden Rehab as soon as Monday... So at least then it will only be a forty min drive one way to visit , rather than three and a half hour one way..

After the medical meeting.. News of sorts..

Had a very drawn out and long meeting today with every professional who had letters behind their name about the biopsy and future medical options for Age.

Cutting straight to the chase - The Good News- the biopsy shows that tumour is still a grade 2... Even though it is huge. So big victory dance deserved here!!

Bogus news is that its pressing on a number of places in his brain, behaviour, decision making, maths reasoning ... As well as motor on the right side and speech - making surgery not such a great option.

Bad news is based on the medical options available is basically chemo.. Which we are both violently against. 

Surgery and radiotherapy not safe options as far as they are concerned. The whole team meets on a Thursday to discuss cases, with. Adrian's one of the first on the agenda as he is up for 'release' yay!

Once he is discharged, he will be transferring to the rehab centre at Eden Private hospital. I was supposed to meet with the team today, but they got caught up and we didn't end up crossing paths.

I finished off taking the rest of his stubble and beard. I'm sure everyone will get used to his new look.. I caught a few shots of him after kidding round with him..
