At last

Have received first show of interest in my predicament. It was a gem. What genre are you interested in

Acoustic neuroma and Charles Dickens

This is not about Dickens having the tumour but rather how the Tumour returned me to Dickens. The operation caused me difficultiew with my eyes and concentration. I took to reading about ten books at a time.When my concentration flagged with one book I ould take to another with renewed vigour until I fell by the wayside. One of the books WAs "Great EXpectations" I had not readf Dickerns for 50years. An ill wind blows some good. The tumour did that for me.Is not Dicken's magnificent? He did wonders for the name of Journalism.
Of literary matters and onto my tumour removal. I am interested in hearing from anyone who has had an acoustic neuroma (Scwannoma) removed via the translabyrinthine approach. I was operated on three months ago and I am still having trouble especially with balance. I have gone from wheel chair to 4 wheeled walking frame to a single walking stick. I can walk unaided/assisted but have rather an attractive lurch. It was suggested thet I would be 'Right" in 4 to 6 weeks. Is there anyone out there heving the same problem as me or who has recovered balance earlier.
Anyone want to buy some excellent books?

Don Watson "American Journeys

My further attempts at rehab.today left me worse than before. Just finished a book which is good as rehab and you just listen to yourself. I know little about the US so i read Don Watson's American Journeys. Beautiful desc4iptions of place and thoughts. The Us is that country we hate when they go into fix something up, but we always go to them to fix things up. I am sure that history will show that they fixd something outside the US. When they have finished trying to fix outside they might start inside on New Orleans.
Anyway back to the book. IN my eagerness to finish it and start another I came to his "Afterword". which could be read aloneI was glad to read the book because it is necessary for me anyway that wer might appear to becoming American we could never be like the. Thay have because they need it we do not because we do not need it.Religion will continue to play no part in politics here (no matter what political commentators say. We lack enthusiasm for a way of living.

It is a great read. My next reads will be "Great Expectations", "The Costello Memoirs"

Where are you all, I need your comments

I still have the books so my maqrriage is on shaky grounds and my wife's car is subject to the elements. I am recovering from Tumour surgery and my left hand is poor. The typing of the blog is part of my rehab. The sale of the books will help as well. AND I bought 4 more books at Antipodes Sorrento. Therefore 4 books have to go to make room for the latest 4. Please help!
Typing is good for my rehab. but it would be better if I was writing to someone other than myself. My spell check button is wearing out. God I'm a mess.
