Russell Watson News

Russell Watson

Hope you all saw the Russell Watson interview with Piers Morgan. It was very moving and it was great to see Russell's daughters in the audience. It is fabulous to see Russell looking so well and also to see that he is now in a new relationship. I wish him all the best for a tumor free future and lots of good wishes for the up and coming tour and new album 'La Voce'.

Russell was recently put under the microscope in a Daily Mail interview which revealed a little of his life after brain surgery:
Question:
Do You Pop Any Pills?

Answer:
He has regular medication along with a hormone injection at night. His pituitary gland was damaged by the brain tumour and sufficient growth hormone and hydrcortisone are not produced.

Question:
Have you tried alternative medicine like say acupuncture?

Answer:
No. This was mentioned to his endocrinologist who's reaction was to turn a pale colour and comment that this would be OK if he wanted to be dead.

My Birthday

It was my birthday on 30th June and although normally this would be nothing too exciting to write home about, I am willing to share with you that it was my 50th Woo Hoo!!

Birthdays and anniversaries come and go and we either sing and shout or hide away for the day. I celebrated in the normal fashion but didn't go over board because I have an even bigger anniversary coming up next week and I really do want to sing and shout about that:


July 19th will be two years since I had my Brain Tumour Removed!

I certainly think that is worth a laugh!

Check back into my blog on Monday 14th and I'll give you a preview into my life two years ago.

Bye for now
Lynda
