Jamila Rizvi has posted a smiling post-surgery selfie after undergoing a second operation to remove a brain tumour.

The 32-year-old editor-at-large of Future Women underwent the craniotomy on Saturday but says she is hoping to go home tomorrow.

She has had an outpouring of support on social media from a range of high profile friends including TV star and founder of Beanies for Brain Cancer Carrie Bickmore.

The former political advisor to both the Rudd and Gillard governments has had a meteoric career making the successful transition from politics to the media.
