My 7yr old Grandson Louis is to have surgery for a brain tumour tomorrow we are all distressed and trying to stay positive here as they live abroad.

Please give him positive thoughts or a prayer if you could please
Thank you

Just thought like to see the lad himself taken when he was asked into the cockpit by the pilot, he was delighted of course.

That is very encouraging tanith and we await a further positive update from you. Warm wishes to you all.

Glad Louis is awake and talking Tanith. Still praying for results to come quickly. You must be so worried and being far away is awful for you xxxx

Great news, Tanith, you must be so relieved!
It's still early days, so he just needs time to heal after such delicate surgery.
Sending love and prayers for Louis's complete recovery. ?????

Like others have said it's good that he is awake and not confused children are very resilient ar,nt they .

Good to hear Tanith. As you say step by step. Why these things should happen to children at all mystifies and upsets me.
PS I know what you mean about sons and communication! Big hugs x flowers

Aveline Fri 26-Mar-21 13:13:20

So glad to hear he's improving. Little by little wins the day. We're all pulling for him! (And you too!)

That’s such good news tanith - that’s a big hurdle successfully jumped. We’ll all keep the positive ‘gran-vibes’ going I’m sure, for as long as Louis needs them x

Squiffy Fri 26-Mar-21 13:02:37

Thanks for the update Tanith, Louis sounds like a little fighter. Onwards and upwards ?

Great news, tanith!

Hithere Fri 26-Mar-21 12:58:44

Tanith,

The "why Louis" phase is here to stay for a while, sorry to say.

I hope Louis is doing better today and his parents are learning to handle this

V3ra Fri 26-Mar-21 12:56:08

Lovely news so far, let's hope it continues ?

Doodle Fri 26-Mar-21 12:55:13

Good news Tanith hope the results are ok.

LauraNorder Fri 26-Mar-21 12:52:12

The news sounds great Tanith. Of course we’ll keep Louis in our prayers.

Calendargirl Fri 26-Mar-21 12:48:29

He sounds to be going on ok, will keep him in our thoughts and prayers.

tanith Fri 26-Mar-21 12:45:59

Bluebell yes I know what you mean, tears have been shed, now I’m at the “why Louis?” stage, totally pointless I know but I can’t help it.

lavenderzen Fri 26-Mar-21 12:32:56
