Hi guys.

Just thought some of you may be interested in the book my wife Georgette has written.
I cant really summarise it for you, as i haven't read it yet.
I'm waiting for my personal copy and will read it then.

I must admit though i think it will bring back alot of hidden and forgotten memories and feelings which i assumed would reamain buried forever.

So instead of trying to do another write up, i think i'll just copy and paste my post from BigFooty. I hope no one minds.


Georgette Fishlock had a charmed life - her childhood dream of having a loving husband, a welcoming home and beautiful children to fill it with love had come true.

Perfect in My Eyes is a moving story of how that perfect life became filled w...ith tragedy and heartbreak that threatened to tear their lives apart and the inspiration of young Tyler's irrepressible character and love of life, even in a world of darkness.

Perfect in My Eyes


Tyler Fishlock won the hearts of a nation through his incredible courage as cancer cruelly consigned him to a life without sight. He has been an inspiration to many, not least his mother Georgette who in Perfect in My Eyes tells the story of the living nightmare endured by her family and how her extraordinary little boy’s bravery helped them endure.
As well as providing a moving account of Tyler’s battle to live, Georgette’s vivid recollections tell of her own emotional journey that took her from the depths of despair to emerge as a fiercely proud and
determined mother and champion for the rights of other parents finding themselves in a situation like hers.
Perfect in My Eyes is on sale from November 3.

Well put Streak
 
Every day I see people wallowing in self pity saying life is too hard, I cant cope, why me....and then I think about people like Tyler, Kurt Fearnly and my brother in-law. Its these people who could argue life is hard who make life worthwhile through their drive and determination. I sometimes feel like telling those who are wasting their lives to stop and think how fortunate their lives are but dont think they deserve knowing people who strive hard to make the best of the hand life has dealt them. These guys dont dwell they excel!.

Good luck Tyler...you have inspired your mum and dad and you have inspired us all with yoru courage and determination....
"fight and fight and win!"

He's My Hero.

All power to you, Georgette and Tyler.
Well said Lamb!

Families like these should be an inspiration to us all. They are the true heroes in this world.
 
The Best of luck Tyler. You are truly inspirational to everyone!

Good work Raines and Bowden for calling Tyler. :clap :clap

"Former stars Andrew Raines and Joel Bowden both phoned Tyler when they heard about the bullying to lift his spirits."
 
Congratulations Georgette. I look forward to reading the book. Tyler shows true Tiger spirit so it's no wonder he's been adopted, and much loved, as one of us as we've followed his fortunes on PRE.

Hadn't seen my neighbors for a few days and was a little concerned that their was something wrong with their newborn. They came over to tell me today that all was good on that front but their 2 year old daughter had been diagnosed with the same type of cancer Tyler had and is having here eye out this Friday. Shocking news.
 
That's sad Western. I hope the little girl has a successful operation and a speedy recovery. :hearton Maybe the parents might benefit from talking to Brad and Georgette about their experience with Tyler.
 
Really sad stuff there WesternTiger! I can but offer my best wishes for her speedy recovery and love filled life.
