http://brainsurgerynotrocketscience.blogspot.com/2009/05/still-able-to-dance.html
Friday, May 29, 2009. Still able to dance. Although still groggy under the influence of anasthetic, Laurie has tested is muscle movement and all limbs, etc are working as they should. Life as a professional dancer may still be on the cards. May 29, 2009 at 1:24 PM. I'm sure I've got some old pointe shoes he can borrow. May 29, 2009 at 3:22 PM. He can book me in for a twirl too!

Brain Surgery not Rocket Science: Some left lip control returns!
http://brainsurgerynotrocketscience.blogspot.com/2009/06/some-left-lip-control-returns.html
Tuesday, June 9, 2009. Some left lip control returns! This photo shows me making duck faces at speech pathologist, Kylie Perkin's practice today. It might look rediculous, but after a bit of this work, I actually managed to move the left corner of my mouth for the first time since the surgery this morning. A key element of the work Kylie is doing with me is for me to observe what my face is doing in a mirror while I try to control the various facial muscles. Kylie Perkins, at St Andrew's medical centre.

Friday, May 29, 2009. When asked how he was, Laurie was able to give the thumbs up although he was too groggy to say so.

http://brainsurgerynotrocketscience.blogspot.com/2009/05/op-minus-12-hours.html
Thursday, May 28, 2009. Op minus 12 hours. Laurie was in good spirits tonight with 12 hours to go before the operation. And of course why wouldn't he be feeling good with his lovely partner Cheryl there at his side. Prior to the operation Laurie has some strategically located lifesaver looking markers placed at various places around his head. This was done in conjunction with a MRI which will be used to locate the tumor during the operation. For those who want a closer look at the locater lifesavers:.
