Hi! All,
I's great to hear from you again and I apreciate your thoughts and all and will continue you to respond to your post's.
Helping Dad, That's a great idea but I think I have left it too late to do my Memoirs, but am going to give it a go, I don't have films of my past life and can only resort to memories to record(then I can bury it all in a time capsule and in 50 years time we would have moved house and the block would probably be built over with a shopping mall or something LOL) on an MP3 player if I can work out how to record, but in all honoursty I will give it a try, I will be able to look down from where ever it is they send me and think "Did I really do that". Marley is worth it to begin with as when ever we see each other he gives me a great smile .
Ananth, good to hear from you and believe me if I could I would like to stay around just to keep my eye on you thinking "One day our paths will cross", it's certainly not my idea to give up without a fight and my names say's that I was around before the birth of Christ so does that sort of make me assistant Imortal?.
Chelle, Likewise with you it's been a long time no hear and it is always good when friends keep in touch, and as I have said I am not finished yet and every second does count.
Lorraine & Paul, Thank you Deb always asks do I want her to edit my posts but if I had the errors corrected I wouldn't know what I had written, English grammar was never one of my strong points and "Spell Checker" doesn't work in the post section
Angie, Yes the buses keep passing every day and I've managed to avoid them thus far and will fight on with this little bastard as well, again "Thank You".
Hell guys I am getting worn out with all my one finger typing and will reply to Gwyn,Mum,Winnie,Bell,Chris,Fran,Mimi,Dave & Sue,Hagg, &Tony in another post and believe me I am ever so greatfull to the replies.
As for the serious side I start my new Chemo drug "Gemcitasine" this Friday and am a bit apprehensive about the side effects as one of the effects is dioreha and if thats the case then its gonna give me the shits having it , I have been spraying under my tongue with "Nervaplex" this is supposed to stop tension.
Deb has organised a family & friends open house Sunday so I can see every one before the side effects start to take over, BUT then I could be lucky and it will go along without a worry so I will get back to you all later and remember
"I'll be back"
Love Trev

OK.OK. This time I can't resist!
I wouldn't even begin to even TRY to edit this last post however I do need to tell you all that our surname is WISE ~ hence the suggestion that Trevor has been around since BC. With our two boys and Trevor, they fancied themselves as the THREE WISE MEN (don't know where that left me??????) He may be fading a bit but I can't have you all thinking Trevor has lost his marbles ~ just yet!
You're all helping to keep his spirits up.... thanks everyone.
Love
Deborah

Trev

Lunch time here and like to keeps updated with the site.

First off good luck on Friday with the gemcistasine (don’t they think up some weird names for these drugs I hope it does not give you the sh%@ts that would be a real bummer (I just realised what I have written but will leave it in).

Enjoy your Sunday open day now don’t going sinking to many tinnies or burn the shrimps on the barbe.

Take care mate


Tony

PS going to send you a pic of us all including our old bulldog Harry, was lunch time when I started it now afternoon tea I bet I type slower than you.

Trev/Deborah,
Your strength, courage and wisdom has helped me through some dark days.

Enjoy your Sunday and good luck with the new stuff.

Many thanks

Ken

another thought - my dad, for my sweet sixteen twice (32 heeheehee) bday party, sent out letterhead to family and friends and asked them to write something about me and then he compiled it all in a book - some told stories, favorite memory, some included photos, kids drew pictures - every response was unique and individual - it was amazing to hear/see - it would just be another way to "record" a bit of you for Marley and crew - very easy to do - make an announcement at your open house and ask folks to grab some stationery as they leave and then in the next weekish or so get the stories and thoughts back to Deb and she can compile them in a binder - I really do think you should print this thread also so your world wide fan club can be a part of your wonderful legacy

But he doent't answer his pm's!!!

Hi! My good bird cocky,
I'am sorry I failed to respond to you PM but I think the Galah on this side of the world was in a bit of a flap and forgot where his nest is .
Things are certainly going full pelt here I started my next lot of Chemo today and so far I was thinking that there are no noticable side effects except for the effects of the steroids they gave me first as now I am running at high speed without the body to take it. I got a bit stressed out over one off my son's who borrowed my battery charger when I needed it and did my lolly over it (which is so unlike me) however he has returned it and it is charging my little car(ODD I never use the bloody thing anyway BUT like things to be running correctly).
Deb is really a great bird as well and tries to keep me chirping and at times it's fine then I get tense again, Bugger it.
Anyway there is another reason that I couldn't respond to your PM and that is to answer it from the PM I have to use the Emale site and my new wireless server doesn't send (F*&%$#g thing), so I will have to reply through this site. It was a thrill to get my birds responce though.
Not much more to say so I'll close and respond again when the body gets down to cruising speed.
Love Yah
TREV

I'll forgive you darl

love you too

Dear Trev,
I was going to pen down this - I will come over and kill you before you die on us, but then I realised you will not die. You are immortal as explained by Deb and our paths will not just cross but meet very soon.
I have stopped posting often as I have been getting high on morphine to keep the pains away. Its better then Fosters!!! I do read all the posts and the replies and everyone is doing a great job.
And once again Trev - you will not be missed - you will always be around for everyone.

Take care you crazy Aussie,
With lots and lots of love, hugs and Deb 9 you get the kisses),
Ananth

Trev and Deb, what a truly brave and inspirational couple you are!

Trev, I was so sorry to hear your news, but am delighted you still have such a fighting spirit and that you are going to have an open house on Sunday. What a wonderful thing to do. I think Helping Dad's suggestions are marvellous. I have found photos and old movie film of my Mum and Dad a fabulous trigger for memories that have stood the test of time and been far more important than any material possessions they left me.

Have a wonderful day tomorrow. I will be thinking of you.

Cathy

Hi Liz
I hate to interrupt the love fest you two seem to be having but just want to mention that I don't seem to have a response from my last pm ......... Mmmmmmmm?

Hello Ananth
Sorry to hear you have the need for morphine, however glad that you have it if you have the need (if you know what I mean). I knew there must be a good reason for you to have gone quiet. How are things for you generally? Not too tought I hope.
Best wishes to Sonya and your Mum.
Take care.

Hi Cathy
Over the last 4 months we have been out of touch with the 'real' world so having an open house makes a lot of sense for more reason than one. Not everyone is aware of Trevor's situation so by inviting them around it gets past the issue of 'what do I say' that happens if you haven't been in touch for a while and know there are health issues; it gives us a change of faces without us having to go anywhere and also giving Trevor the chance to have a rest when he needs to; and for those who haven't been in touch and can't make it, it has got them onto the phone so I have been able to bring them up to date with our news. All in all a great day is expected. All very low key, no fuss or bother, just friends dropping in over the course of the day.
Today we had a terrific day too. Trevor's eldest son and his wife and his multitude of children (5 and 8.5/9ths!), plus my (considered 'our')eldest son and our two sons and their girls plus Marley all came over. We just had a simple sausage sizzle and it was great. The kids all played happily and the two baby boys (12 and 10 months) were as good as gold too. It was a lovely family day.
Then we had friends call in because they can't make it tomorrow! So all in all it was just a beaut day. Trevor still managed to get in a couple of sleeps and has now hit the hay for the night.
I was very grateful for the boys all pitching in and doing 'stuff'. I really just didn't have the energy (or drive, or something!) to do anything so it was nice to sit and hold the baby.
No doubt tomorrow will be a lovely day ~ wonderful even, as you wished. Thanks for your kind thoughts.
Love to everyone
Deborah

Dear Deb and Trev,
Life at this end is getting on with my now writing against the terrorists on the net and also in the newspapers. I have really nothing else left to do as all my work was settled time ago when I travelled and we could not meet.

Sonya has begun a new project - a boutique selling very ethenic Indian clothes, herbs, natural shampoos,creams etc. I never ever imagined the killing she would make and her place is always full. However, she has taken to her work to the extent that she is doing what I used to do pre cancer - abuse the body. It is an addiction Deb and once you get bitten by work bug - there is no retu.rn.

Both my sons have really grown up faster then I thought they would. The elder one is on the verge of completing his college and going on to higher studies. He is majoring in development of computer hardware etc. and I find it really great that I have now have a computer that never freezes. My younger son is now in college and is very clear what he wants to major in - arts. He wants to carry on and do his hotel management - however I feel he may change his mind to look after the assets we have and develop them even more. As a team, I am sure the two will take on anyone or anything.

My morphine diet is getting heavier as the days go by and though I do go out once in a while on a drive (my sons take turns in taking me around), I prefer to stay at home and do things that have always been dear to me- reading, writing and the cancer kids project is really doing a good job. My book has been finaly been released. I refused all thet wine and cheese VIP party for the launch and prefered to do it in a quiet manner. I am glad to say, the book too is doing very well as it contains pictures and photos too. Its more on the lines of a coffee table book - big with hard cover.

I am really feeling bad for Trev and I could not hold back from posting my regard to both of you. I am sure I will meet up with Trev whenever he is ready. Trev - take care mate. The world will be desolate without you.

Lots of love and hugs to Trev and you too (along with the kisses),
Ananth

Hi! All,
Well what atruely amazing weekend, to start with I had a rather hectic night Friday and with the steroids flowing through my veins I was like a restless kitten my body speed and thought speed was very rapid and this would have been fine if my body could keep up with the steroids so mid morning I was atrating to flag. but with my children coming with their children I was going to make sure I lasted. My eldest boy Simon arrived with his wife and 5 &5/9th kids then my other boys arrived with Marley and friends so the day got going with a bang, the boys set to and cooked up a sausage sizzle and with Hot potatoe chips and fried onions the day turned out to be fantastic and this was early. With the help of my Oxycodone and Panadol I got through till they all departed and I was off to bed for an hour, unbeknown to me was there were more visitors coming, and they did which got me up out of bed and into it again(Have I bored you enough YET?).Saturday night was a quiet night and with Sunday looming I went to bed early but was awake again at 0130hrs and needed another couple of Tamazapan tablets to get me off to sleep again, they certainly did the trick as I managed to sleep in until 0930hrs and then my Daughter arrived with a brand new Camcorder so that I can record my Memoires in film and voice (How good is that).
1200hrs the first of my friends arrived and so the eating started again(this was good as I grazed most of the day and felt as if I had added a bit of weight to the body)I managed quite a few Brandy & Cokes as well and with the constant flow of friends and rellies the day past along beautifully BUT the body isn't keeping up to the pace, however by the time the last of them left I had managede to keep withit and tonight I don't think I will need any help to go to sleep.
Taking Helpingdad's advice I have started to put together my story and with the aid of my computer (NO editing because that would spoil the story) I will hopefully have something that my children and grandchildren can look back on and remember me.
Well I had better get off this post before they run me out of town, Thank you for listening to my rambles and I hope you get as much pleasure and help out of this site as I have.
Love to All
TREV
