    I heard from TW this am.  He

    I heard from TW this am.  He is going for testing today for possible stent tomorrow, then off to a round of golf.  He says he might not play well but enjoys himself.  I told him not to blame the jaundice if he doesn't play well!  ;)   He is a trooper our Trevor!

    He appreciates all of our love and support and says not to worry if he is absent until Friday or Saturday, he is laying low a bit until then. He's got high priority in my prayers!

     

     

     

    thank you angec
    Thank you for updating us angec! Sounds like good news to me. Also, hope your mum is doing well!
    Love, C

    Brief break

    Thanks, Ange, that's close enough to save me the trouble - just about to go in until Friday, or longer if any adverse event/infection occurs.

    Clara's inspired detective work was spot on.  I'm now a brilliant yellow and yesterday's scan shows various issues, the most urgent being the expansion of another lymph node at the junction of the biliary drainage vessels, preventing proper bilirubin drainage.  Clotting check and blood tests this afternoon and they'll give me something corrective if necessary with a view to stenting the biliary blockage on Thursday.  If all goes OK I may well be out home on Friday.  No golf since last week and none in view at the moment :(

    Unless there's very bad additional news from the scan yesterday, current  position could be worse (better to have resolvable mechanical blockage than a metabolic cause).

    Won't beable to get on here for a few days, so all the best to everyone meantime.

    Praying for you TW

    Not much more to say that hasn't been said already. Mrs. BLKJAK and I will be praying for you and your family. You need to get better. Those golf courses don't play themselves!

    I never thought I would say

    I never thought I would say this, but, YEAH for the mechanical blockage!!  That is fixable and gives us more time to see what else we can do to keep you stable.  But no jumping ahead.  One thing at a time.  I am so glad Clara mentioned the blockage!  It really makes me so much more confident that we all pool together here and help each other. 

    Cry  Happy tears falling here!  

     

    Love you TW... all my best and the prayers and well wishes continue for you, our trooper!

    Clara, sorry to read about

    Clara, sorry to read about your SIL... I know you were very close.   My prayers are with you! 

     

    Thanks for asking about Mom, she just turned 81 a few days ago and is doing ok.  She is a strong woman and a trooper, I wish I was more like her!  She had good scan results last month and I pray it continues to hold for her.  She is on 200 mgs of Votrient and the side affects are tolerable for her, more than that and it was too much to take.  

    Love to you Clara! <3:)

    Where there is life, there is hope
    I am so very glad to know that your mum is doing well on Votrient, Ange. I just want to emphasize TW's words "where there is life, there is hope". Your mum is definitely a trooper and I am sure she is one lucky lady to have you as her daughter and advocate.

    Love,
    Clara

    Thanks, lovely daughter of

    Thanks, lovely daughter of our TW! I said several long hard prayers for your dad and then came to the board hoping to find some info.  You made my day!  I am so glad he is out of surgery.  Did he get his normal Scottish color back yet? ;)

    All my love to you and your parents!

    It was so thoughtful of you to update all your dad's friends and admirers. I hope TW is back home and up to golf and writing very soon.
