I don't know if you can find it online, maybe on YouTube but Tracey Ullman impersonating Judi Dench, Camilla Parker-Bowles and various others has me in tears weeping.

I hope you're doing ok. I had several brain tumors removed almost exactly a year ago, so I just wanted to say I was thinking of you. The shock of the news and the fear of the unknown is the worst. When it becomes your new normal it's a lot easier to face.

Sending love and strength OP. Hope you have some company soon, and answers to your questions 💐

@Wells37 I’m so sorry this must feel like it’s taking ages to have some certainty, and in circumstances that are so unpeaceful. We are rooting for you x

This made me snort with laughter this week. Very old Comic Relief take on Downton Abbey with lots of familiar faces.

Sending love.

Exhaustion and stress will play tricks on you; try not to give in to negativity. Sleep well, OP. ❤️

Hi op, about 2 or 3 years ago my mum (now 65) was having issues and it took about 9 months for them to finally give her an mri where it was discovered she had a tumor (1 big one and 1 really small orange peel style one). She successfully had the larger one removed last August, though its not frontal lobe it was at the back by the base of her spine. She has terrible memory still, her tastes in food changed etc.. but she's pretty much out the other side now. If you want to chat let me know
