Cloe had her first brain surgery yesterday. After 7 hours of operation, She is still sleeping. She gained consciousness at some stage and was responsive. She continues with her rest in the hospital.

Her doctor explained that they removed 80-90% of the tumour. He mentioned that the rest was in the grey zone and would be too risky to remove. If the tumour is malignant, she would need a second operation, followed by radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Now they are conducting a biopsy on the tumour. We hope and pray for good results, for the tumour to be benign. There will be a different medical plan and roadmap depending on the results.

Carol is highly appreciative of all your donations. She is flying to the Philippines tomorrow morning to see her daughter, following a one week quarantine.

Thank you all very much for your support. Cloe and her family undoubtedly need all the help they can get until this is over.

I will keep you posted on the progress.

All the best,

Basak
