A personal message from Martha and Eve..
Hi lovely people ,
Thanks so much for all your support on the recent health scare
concerning Eve.
In an attempt to answer some of your questions...
Eve has now had a successful operation to remove a benign pituitary
tumor found in her brain...
And I am thrilled to say, we can all breathe out now,
Eve is recovering well and strutting her beautiful
stuff ..
And she made a recent and very moving appearance back on stage
with me ... Aaah!
See for yourselves by clicking on the link here...you
tube.co.uk
Or click this link on the HOME
PAGE of our website..
So, the outlook for the rest of the year,
Eve will soon undergo radiotherapy to sterilise the remaining
tumour then she will begin some time off for recovery ...
the forecast looks positive after this next treatment happens
, because thankfully ,
this is all treatable stuff here.
We’ll keep you updated with latest news...
Your support has been brilliant and has helped her get through...
A million thanks to all who sent and continue to send messages
..
Eve says Big Apologies for those of you who booked tickets for
the
shows we have had to cancel as a consequence....she couldn't help
it!
