Advanced prostat cancer part 2

Honestly and seriously this isn't a disease that I think anyone can predict outcomes on. It is so varied from one man to another. I remember my first desperate posts with Trevor's original PSA reading , of course I thought it was pretty high but I had no idea quite how high it was and everyone was going very gently around what I was asking, I could feel everyone thinking Julie check his pulse.😳

Not only is he very much alive and kicking he is looking and feeling good .

OK so scores on the doors are not so good but they are all just numbers ,

So Wiz visit today and

PSA up from 1,081 to 1,336

ALP up from 177 to 218

We are staying on the Abbi tabs for another 4 weeks , new bone and MRI scans scheduled with a review in another 4 weeks. Our moto is and has always been tomorrow is another day, over the last 3 years one thing we have learnt is that Cancer is not a death sentence it is a LIVE sentence.

So in the words of the two Ronnies it is goodnight from him and a goodnight from me.

Love you all.

The key part of what you say is the living part just like Topgun,s life is for living. The one thing we incurable sufferers have in common is that making the most of life is a must. We never know the timetable, can never know the timetable. So much better to keep going, enjoy every moment we can and yes the road is rocky as another old friend stated, but we will travel this together. Not great news but you will approach it as you always do with humour, optimism and fortitude, who can argue with that!

So this is a mid way catch up , I have been trying not to do mid way catch ups because they can get a bit well boring I suppose🤗 Sorry just laughing at my self how the Feck can our lives be boring.

So Trevor and the boys decide to go to there annual meeting at Santa Pod , I have never been so this is a women's interpretation of what is my worst nightmare , loud cars , drag racing, and not a burger van insight, so I decide that I would stay home and do my nails.😍

Next thing is I get a phone call to say T has slipped down a grassy slope with I say with his fold up chair still over his shoulder , he has skidded to a halt and then been helped up by his 6ft 3 inch nephew , GLen he is just the sweetest lad but at 6ft 3 and as black as your hat not quite what you would call a paramedic. Trevor was a bit dishelved but otherwise ok. So my nails are chewed but not painted .

MRI and Bone scan completed results on the 13 June

now I kind of know Trevor a little bit by now, so I am guessing a wheelchair would be absolutely out of the question until really, really desperate (even one with go fast stripes, mirrors and flags like Topgun's scooter) So I have a cunning plan ....

Next time he has the bright idea of taking the lads to a race meeting or a similar grass slope type of event, of which I can list a few just in case you need help visualising ...

The Epsom Derby

rock concert at MK Bowl

party in the park

Wimbledon

Queen's garden party

OK so you are getting the scene now??

well that lovely tall nephew and your equally tall Eldest son, ably assisted by your less tall but equally gorgeous younger son, should load the ride on mower in the back of the van. Then T has his own transport at the event and can be useful all at the same time!!! When he goes to HRH's gaff he can take Tulip to grrrrr at the corgis xxxxxxxx

Love to all of you as always
