Adam and Amanda

Meet my beautiful friend Adam

Meet the Pied Piper of ukulele students

Adam was a wonderful artist, musician, father and friend. We had a shared experience of living with brain tumour and then the fallout of the new normal of the post op world. It is a struggle for all of us at some level, some of us struggle more than others and experience more numerous or more intense post op deficits.

Christmas

As a small child I always looked forward to Christmas. It was magic. My mother and my grandmother put so much energy and effort into Christmas it was almost what I imagine it would be like to be on another planet. Occasionally we would make the long trek by car from Canberra to Miriam Vale by car to see Grandma Walker for Christmas. That was magic too! She lived such a long way from us and we had all of these family members who lived in me mysterious tropical state of Queensland. Travelling north was an adventure all on it's own.

Fi

When I was little and I met my cousins Fiona and Nicole I thought they were the most amazing people in the world. These girls had lived in a place where people didn't all speak English, they had amazing smiles, happy faces, were really really nice and they had a hilarious Dad and a gorgeous Mum. They were like two magical princesses and I was in complete awe.

Reflection

My previous blog was about my recovery since life saving brain surgery in 2011.

This is my new blog which is devoted to the plans I have for the future as well as the revelations I encounter along the way.

 Welcome to the beginning of Life 2.0!
