Dear friends and family. I do appreciate the wonderful turn out for the benefit and the amount of concern and love shown by the community for me. Still workin when I can, which has been a few hours a day and love being there. Had a nice labor day weekend and got to go to the threashing bee. Love seeing those old tractors and hit and miss motors! Seasons are changing and hope everyone is enjoying what's left of summer. Maureen has been quite the trooper and works endlessly to keep me smiling and healthy. Look forward to blood tests this week to see how I've been doing on keeping my body strength and weight stable. It has been 3 weeks since the last one and the tests will also let me know how the herbs have been doing. Natalie will be moving up soon and looking forward to being with her. Well big smiles and a loud YEE HA!! from Trev and I'll let ya know how things are going..best to you all!!

An update for friends of John Trevor Postles

Sunday 8/4/13

All in all a good week, lots of changes...whats always seems to help is the comfort I get being at home sweet home!

Got to see Dr. Abu Erreish, the cancer doctor "oncologist" who has been great through all of this. He is going to be taking blood tests once a week so we have more of an idea how fast or slow things are going with my liver. This weeks test was not good because of the after effects of radiation. The small amounts that are left of my liver are jaundiced and really inflamed.

I'm off radiation now so it's about getting my energy back and staying healthy. Lots of naps!! . The big QUESTION in meeting with Dr. is which way are we going now... and of course, for me that is something that is on my mind constantly.

This is what I have decided about chemo: they where going to try Nexavar, an oral chemo which apparently they can monitor more closely, but which has some terrible side effects! LOOK IT UP! But I looked at relatives who took chemo that were sick until the end. Being of sound mind and still feeling pretty good, and with God's help, Maureen by my side, and the prayers and support of all my friends, I told the doctor he can give the chemo to the next guy. I felt really good saying that and I believe in it! It's now God and me and we are going to finish the fight!

I started this week with acupuncture with Dr. Gregg Enos who specializes in holistic health and nutrition. He'll be working to help me manage my pain, relaxation, and anxiety. It is nice to be off the other doctors for now.

The shop is doing well and it is good therapy for me to be doing what I love! Linda Johnson has kept the shop open mornings 11-1, then Maureen and I come in 1-3 most days. Saturdays, Bill Toshik, who used to work for me at Drews some years ago, has been there in the afternoon helping me get caught up. That he knows the trade already has been a big help...lots of laughs and conversation!!
I have been able to get emergencies done for the firefighters and of course lots of cowboy boots! The income has been good as Jeld Wen has been tough on helping out Maureen with family assistance….nothing! So shes on leave for now.

Well need to recharge my inner batteries and hit next week with a big smile!!

Have a wonderful Sunday and a heartfelt thanks to everyone!

Trevor

John Trevor Postles
Hello to one and all !! Without a proper start and not an End i must tell you, with lack of words. I have "Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) cancer...infected is T-11 spinal virtebra with tumor and cancer. Also 5" tumor which has infected both sides of my liver and Metastasised to my spine which makes liver transplant impossible. We're opting at this point to use the less evasive measures and routes, to stablize my spine. To releave the pain and hopefully not the chance of becoming paralized. I feel in good spirits now, to use this chance to be on my feet and use my strenghth and positive outlook to fight against the battle with my liver. And using this window of strength too, for my spiritual and miricale windows And of course leting in your all prayers and such wonderful friendships that mean the World to me ! :) AND!! i hope i can help others. New options opening everday. Hope, options others opinions are opening doors everday.mmmm.. please help pass this on for me.... E-mails would be loved and welcome... [email protected]
Love ! Trevor
