I can't watch videos where I am at the moment can someone post some brief facts?

Sending love Magdalen. You are inspirational.

So sorry to hear this. Best wishes for your recovery. Flowers

Makes you wonder why so often bad things happen to good people.

Thinking of you and wishing you all the strength in the world.

She's got a very big operation coming up - next week? She has known for over a year that she has a brain tumour and she had an operation last year, but she knew that hadn't cured it. Recently she's had some seizures and it's now been confirmed that the tumour is growing, so it has to be removed. She said her surgeon hopes to get 90% of it. She'll then have radiotherapy. Major, major stuff. It was emotional. She's such an inspiration. So tough but empathic too. I wish her all the luck in the world to get through this.

Magdalen Flowers So much love to you. Am so sorry you are going through this, I’ll be keeping you in my thoughts.

Flowers You are an inspiration to many Magdalen, I can only hope that my daughter grows up to be as strong and courageous as you. Good luck with the surgery x

HenryInTheTunnel · 07/10/2018 13:36

Heartbreaking to watch. Wishing you all the best and to see you again soon Magdalen. Sorry you're having to go through this. Thanks

My love and good wishes to you, Magdalen. Yours was the first voice I heard when I felt there was no-one speaking sense out loud.

OddBoots · 07/10/2018 14:41

Sending you love and strength for your surgery. Thank you for being such an inspiration even in the face of trouble.

Bolloxio · 07/10/2018 15:03

Really hope everything goes well. Flowers

PositivelyPERF · 07/10/2018 15:08

Magdalen. I hope all the outpourings of genuine love and concern from so many strangers, are a comfort to you. You’re one of the bravest women, actually one of the bravest people I’ve ever seen online. You’ve sacrificed so much to protect women and we all appreciate everything you’re doing on behalf of women. Time to put yourself first, so you can come back, as strong as before. 🌹

If you want to - as I did - you could pop her a few bob. Being skint makes cancer a lot worse. Cancer often makes you skint.

@Jeanhatchet Good idea. Done. 😥

gendercritter · 07/10/2018 15:44

Great idea Jean (and I hope you're doing ok too. I'm sure any news like this brings things home to you and causes distress)

Jeanhatchet · 07/10/2018 17:00

@gendercritter I cried like a baby because she's so fantastic and has done so much.

UpstartCrow · 07/10/2018 17:02

I'm so angry I can hardly post. They missed some really important symptoms and she should have been scanned a month ago.

Mummylin · 07/10/2018 17:25

So sorry to see this update. Very inspirational woman. I hope the surgery will go well, see you after your recovery.

SadieLancaster · 07/10/2018 18:01

Donated.

Talith · 07/10/2018 18:17

I'll happily donate. Great idea. Thank you, Magdalen for standing up for girls and women.

Coyoacan · 07/10/2018 18:19

Best wishes, Magdalen

PerspicaciaTick · 07/10/2018 18:22

We are all so proud of Magdalen, all she has done and achieved to date and everything she plans to do after her surgery. She will be in my thoughts a lot over the coming days and weeks.
