Hello lovers!

The walk went fantastically well... I was doing great until about the 15 mile mark.  The tiredness got me - but I kept going!  I think because it was the middle of the night - it's one thing to walk 20 miles during the day... a whole 'nother thing to do it in the middle of the night.  I finished just after 6am and was so happy!  A couple of days later and I was good as gold!  The following weekend I went off to Belgium to eat copious amounts of food and walk all weekend - no probs to report headwise.... apart from the fact my French is crap, my Flemish is non-existant and my German is worse, however those head issues don't have anything to do with my former AN!

Here's some walk pics:


Me and Aims at the start, eager beavers at Tower Bridge

At one of our stops in the night - the Royal Horse Guards.. here's one of them sans horse!


Lanterns on the journey
Right sided AN 2.7cm at last MRI.  Hearing loss/facial numbness.  Translab scheduled March 11th 2009.  Translab at Royal Melbourne Hospital, Australia successful!  Total tumour removed, SSD, no facial issues, numbness has left the building, balance issues but they'll get better and I'm loving life!
