A COMEDIAN carried on cracking jokes while she was having a brain tumour removed.
Sarah-May Philo, 35, was conscious throughout the nine-hour op and used gags from her stand-up routines to keep calm.
The trained opera singer, who chose to stay awake so her brain function could be monitored, also belted out Ave Maria and ad-libbed comedy songs.
She said: “About halfway through, the surgeon said, ‘Oops’. I was like, ‘What do you mean oops? Don’t say that when you’ve got my brain open’.
“Everyone burst out laughing. It really broke the ice.”
Sarah-May, who was “pretty spaced out” on painkillers, added: “Part of my comedy routine was making up songs.
“The speech therapist asked if I could sing so I started making up songs about her, the surgeons and anaesthetist.”
Sarah-May, also a teacher in Glasgow, had surgery in March followed by chemo. Fifteen per cent of the tumour remains.
She will marry partner Paul Griffin in June and said: “I’m feeling very good. I’m back to school and the kids are asking about my bald head. It’s funny and lovely.”

Create complex mind maps to get a visual overview of your projects, gather all thoughts into a single place, write notes, set up events, make online backups, and find files
TheBrain is an advanced software application whose purpose is to help you store information in one place. You can organize webpages, contacts, documents, emails, and files so you can quickly find them. Plus, you may create mind maps for connecting ideas.
Eenie meenie miney moe. 'Eeny, meeny, miny, moe' — which can be spelled a number of ways — is a children's counting. Eeny meeny miney mo: Catch your troubles by the toe: If it hollers let it go: Let it fly away: Eeny meeny miney mo: It's the saying high and low.
User interface
The GUI may look a bit overwhelming because the program has a lot of features to digest so you need to invest some extra time into decoding its functions. A help manual and tips are available in case you need to know more about specific features.
Define a new project
Designing a brand-new project (‘New Brain’) can be done by providing information about the name. You may also choose between several templates, such as Business, Brainstorming, Education, IT Management, and Business.
What’s more, you can merge and rename projects, create ZIP archives so you can share projects via email, and print data. You may import information from IE Favorites and XML, DOCX, MMAP, OPML, MM, OWL, or plain text file format. Plus, you may export data to an image file, or HTML and XML files.
Statistics include information about the number of thoughts, links, notes, tags, events, thought types, forgotten thoughts, and internal attachment size.
Thought management utilities
You can make use of several editing tools in order to organize your thoughts, such as create child and parent thoughts, insert tags, arrange ideas by name, type, or date, pin thoughts, embed attachments, perform searches, generate reports using different criteria (e.g. thought type, date, name, attachments), as well as undo or redo your actions.
You may also check out a calendar and set up events with reminders. A built-in note editor allows you to print data, insert tables, hyperlinks, and symbols, check the spelling, and count the words.
Extra tools to arrange and back up thought data
TheBrain gives you the possibility to perform online searches via your web browser using different engines (e.g. Google, Yahoo!), look for data on Twitter, and change the looks of the mind maps by choosing between several predefined themes or importing custom images (e.g. JPG, GIF).
Furthermore, you are allowed to spell check the thoughts, switch to a full screen or transparent viewing mode, perform online backups to the cloud so you can access data remotely and share it with your friends, create custom categories for storing files, track and save multiple file versions, as well as integrate Outlook or webmail messages in your projects.
Final remarks
All things considered, TheBrain helps you acquire a better understanding of your projects and content. It lets you store and visualize data, as well as find files quickly and detect if they relate to something else in the database. The comprehensive feature package makes it suitable especially for professionals.
