An update for the Swype Keyboard application brings additional premium themes to users, as well as a dedicated emoji keyboard – something everyone in 2015 needs apparently.
A few of the themes now usable should make the Star Trek fans in here extremely happy, as dedicated themes for predominant characters are available, such as ones for Captain Kirk, Captain Picard, and blueprint-like layouts for the USS Enterprise. (more…)

Gurgling softly for only about 10 miles, Mill Creek is not among Clark County's most popular tributaries, but it's becoming somewhat of a local showcase for environmental advancements. How successful the people of our community are at repairing and preserving Mill Creek will signal to our grandchildren how serious we are about balancing the needs of development with the rights of Mother Nature.
First, a brief geography lesson: Mill Creek's almost indistinguishable headwaters are in the western portion of Battle Ground proper, with drainage extending west to Dollars Corner, thence south near Northeast 50th Avenue for a couple of miles and through Washington State University Vancouver before Mill Creek's confluence with Salmon Creek. Many local walkers are familiar with the creek's natural beauty as they wander the popular trails on the eastern side of the WSUV campus. Interestingly, some wild fish such as steelhead make their way into Mill Creek, yet another demonstration that migratory fish will not easily surrender to the advances of civilization.
For more than a decade and a half, since even before the opening of the campus there in 1996, WSUV officials have had their protective eyes on Mill Creek, and numerous volunteer groups have added elbow grease to various projects. Last year, the campus received "Salmon Safe" certification by a Portland-based organization that goes by the same name.
And now, Clark Public Utilities is joining the effort through its StreamTeam program. Kudos to both the university and the utility as they prepare to accelerate the creek's restoration program this fall with a bank-stabilization project that will help arrest years of erosion.
The project is funded in part by a state grant received by the utility.
Mill Creek faces assault by more than just the human hand. Himalayan blackberry bushes — the dastardly invasive species that is cursed by developers and environmentalists alike — have already been removed along Mill Creek on the campus, and as Jeff Wittler of Clark Public Utilities noted recently, "We'll probably be fighting blackberries for a while."
Native trees such as maple, Oregon ash and cedar have been planted along Mill Creek, and workers have big plans for fortifying creek banks this fall. Those include importing root wads of trees felled elsewhere.
As the native vegetation returns and the creek reclaims its natural characteristics, the true benefits of habit restoration will kick in, quantified — it is hoped — in higher fish counts.
Credit for saving Mill Creek is due more than just the university and the utility. Volunteers have come from a wide variety of sources. Compared to WSUV's original plans, according to James Martin, facilities operations director at the university, "what we ended up doing was a much larger thing." And that's why so many teammates and community events are needed for this multiyear project.
Last year when WSUV received its Salmon Safe designation, the organization's executive director, Dan Ken, was quoted in a Columbian story: "A lot of the projects that we see are much more urban and landlocked away from any stream. That (WSUV) campus is really an oasis of nature." Campus features that led to the designation include retention ponds, preserved forest habitat, and drought-resistant native shrubs that minimize water needs and filter stormwater runoff.
The growth of Clark County, though slowed in recent years by the Great Recession, can only be managed properly when these types of environmental projects flourish. The aggressive approach shown by WSUV and Clark Public Utilities is a good example for the rest of the community.

Gerald Herbert, Associated Press
PHOENIX — Mitt Romney took new aim at Rick Santorum's image as a devoted conservative Thursday, accusing his rival of compromising his own principles by repeatedly voting for legislation he didn't believe in.
Romney noted that during Wednesday night's heated GOP debate the former senator said he had voted for President George W. Bush's No Child Left Behind education bill because "sometimes you take one for the team."
"I wonder which team he was taking it for?" Romney asked during a speech to an Association of Builders and Contractors meeting in Phoenix. "My team is the American people, not the insiders in Washington."
During the debate, Santorum was forced to defend several votes on issues such as a right-to-work measure that clashed with his conservative philosophy. He explained at length why he backed bills that included targeted spending called "earmarks," saying it was better to have Congress decide where to send the money than to let executive branch departments have complete authority.
"I don't know that I've ever seen a politician explain in so many ways why he voted against his principles," Romney said Thursday.
Romney and Santorum are powering into a crucial stretch of Republican primaries and caucuses over the next 13 days.
Later Thursday, Romney was turning his focus to tea partyers in Michigan, his birthplace, where cash-strapped Santorum is waging an unexpectedly strong challenge. Romney's been put on the defensive in the auto-building state over his opposition to the government's bailout of car makers.
Romney took a pounding on the auto issue in the debate, and President Barack Obama's re-election campaign piled on Thursday. Obama released a TV ad in Michigan accusing Romney and the other GOP candidates of turning their backs on an industry that supports more than 1 million workers in the state by opposing the bailout.
A tea party rally Thursday night in Milford, Mich., will give Romney another chance to explain why he opposed the rescue of GM and Chrysler amid the economic crisis but supported bailouts for banks.
Santorum, flourishing in the polls, trails in the money chase and is concentrating on beefing up his campaign treasury in hopes of an upset in Michigan's primary on Tuesday. That would cap a rebound that began two weeks ago when Santorum won caucuses in Minnesota and Colorado and a nonbinding primary in Missouri.
The 20th debate of the nomination race offered the GOP hopefuls their final face-to-face outing on a national stage before contests that may well winnow the four-man field.
The debate was staged in Arizona, which also votes Tuesday and where Romney is so confident of victory he hasn't aired any television ads.
After the Arizona and Michigan primaries come Washington's caucuses four days later. Then 10 states cast ballots on Super Tuesday, March 6.
Polls show Santorum leading the field nationally and in several states. Romney and rivals Ron Paul and Newt Gingrich used the televised debate to challenge Santorum, who repeatedly found himself in the hot seat over his record on spending, home-state projects known as earmarks and support for a federal education law.
Romney criticized Santorum for support of spending programs when he represented Pennsylvania in Congress, where he served both in the House and Senate. Romney said Santorum voted five times to raise the government's ability to borrow, supported retention of a law that favors construction unions and supported increased spending for Planned Parenthood. He said federal spending rose 78 percent overall while Santorum was in Congress.
Santorum retorted that government spending declined as a percentage of the economy when he was in the Senate, and he noted that when Romney was asked last year if he would support a pending debt-limit increase, "he said yes."

a desktop administrator. My job now is 40%/60% between programming and system administration. I've earned the MCP with 70-215 and now I'm attracted by both systems and programming and I'm not sure if I should continue investing in the MCSE track or jump back to the developer path. What do you think can be more valuable in the future? You raise an interesting question: although the MCSA/MCSE are better known and may in fact have access to a greater total number of job opportunities, network administration is in the doldrums along with the economy and likely to stay that way as long as the economy stays down. On the other hand, programming jobs are looking pretty good right now and are expected to improve as an influx of ".NET-enabled" applications hits the marketplace in the next year or two.
Given that your proclivities and job responsibilities already lean more heavily toward development than admin, I recommend you pursue the MCAD/MCSD credentials, and that you also learn as much about XML and Web-enabled services as you can (as well as Visual Studio .NET and if you choose to stay with VB, VB.NET as well). I think these credentials will be more valuable for the foreseeable future, both in the relatively short term and in the somewhat longer term.

I want to share something I WISH SOMEONE WOULD HAVE TOLD ME about my little boy when he was born. This isn't made to alarm anyone, but to make you aware of what your nurses won't tell you.
Upon circumisizing my son, we were told to only apply a little vaseline at every diaper change to prevent the healing penis from sticking to the diaper (ouch!) This didn't really help in the healing process, however. The nurses responded, after I asked what type of care his penis should receive (cleansing wise) - "No extra care needed, wash as you would any other body part." The Ped. who circumsized added nothing.
Before DS's 2 month appt, I noticed a little white chunky material just under the foreskin. By this time, LO had packed on baby weight and was becoming chubby. So, it was only normal that he would also be alittle "chubby" down there! So at times, the helmet would completely retract back into the chubbiness (which makes it look alittle bit like an UNcircumsized penis.) So I had asked our Ped. at his 2 month appt what the white cheesy material was and if I should be cleaning that out from underneath the extra skin. He explained to me that my DS had a little bit of penile adhesion. This is where the chubby skin ADHERES to the helmet portion of the penis, because it was never prevented by lightly pushing back the extra skin as it formed. Ped confirmed the circum. was done correctly. But in some severe cases, a baby would need to be REcircum! I sort of flipped out because we were told there was NO extra care needed and here I find out that we should have been pushing back the extra baby skin to prevent the adhering. This skin would go away when the baby grows up and start losing his baby fat. So from there, we were instructed to push down on the base of the penis to help the adhesion to separate and prevent any further sticking. The Ped could have separated everything right there - but can you imagine how your sweet baby boy at 2 months would have reacted to that?!? And then watch him get 6 shots?!? We opted not to do that!
So, for the past 4 months at bathtime, we have gently stretched and pulled down the extra baby fat skin to help bring the helmet back out fully. And now, at 6 months old... we FINALLY got the whole helmet exposed and cleaned out all the white cheesy material!! Little by little didn't seem to bother him...
Here's the scooop ladies - once your DS circum. heals (7-10 days) start to gentle push down at the base of the penis to pull the extra skin down (if there is any grown in yet) and you will NOT have the problem that we faced!! I wish someone would have told me that this could be an issue!!
Here's a link from the Oct. 08 board that expresses many mother's frustration with this very topic!

Topic: update on mum (5 replies, posted in General Discussion)
hello everyone, I have not been on here for a while, I hope everyone is doing ok,
my mum went back in for her repeat ERCP, I wasn't with them this time due to work commitments but dad called up later on this eve to tell me. he said that they have put a wider stent in, he mentioned that the doctors want to do a CT scan within 2 weeks and do some other camera thing- I think he meant a repeat ERCP however im not sure, we are due to meet the consultant next week to discuss biopsy results, I will be travelling back up to be there with them.
I am praying that it is positive news, however I am worried as dad did sound subdued but it is too early to tell what is going on without speaking with the consultant I guess,

Re: update on mum, this is a long long journey (20 replies, posted in General Discussion)
hello everyone, thank you so much for your advice, clarem- thank you for the virtual hug, hugs back to you all, I have to be honest with myself these last couple of weeks and intermittently, me and dad have had our low times and when you feel like this, it makes clear thinking and logical thinking almost impossible and I think this has what has happened recently with me.
I managed to speak to the specialist nurse, she was brilliant with me, very understanding and was happy to answer as much as she could, she explained that whilst it is positive news the two biopsies and brushings have come back negative, they cant 100 percent rule out cancer , she said that the pathology report showed mostly benign cells with some slough( not sure what that means?) she said that dr sturgess thinks that it more closely looks like an adenoma, she said that whilst adenomas can remain non invasive there is a risk that they can become invasive and turn into cancer. she was very honest and said that they cannot 100% determine the exact cause of the stricture, but did assure me that mum will be placed under surveillance for as long as they feel its needed until they are confident there is no malignancy or other medical difficulty, I do have faith in the Aintree team and need to let them take care of mum.
But I think I will still take the information to prof lodge for his opinion as we have nothing to lose in asking him his opinion and might help me to calm down and put some temporary closure on this stressful time. mum is very similar to me, she wants answers and solutions to things and wont settle, I have to realise that not everything can be accounted for and sometimes time is the only thing available.
again thank you all for your support and advice xxxx

Re: update on mum, this is a long long journey (20 replies, posted in General Discussion)
hello all
mum had her appointment with dr sturgess, I am left with mixed emotions of relief but anxiety if that makes sense. I thought I would get all the answers to our list of questions, its only now thinking back on what was said and what notes I managed to make , am I thinking that I want to ring him back maybe tomorrow and try and go through some things and get some clarification on questions. Im sitting here and mum and dad feel that the meeting happened so quickly and at the time we thought we knew what was being said, but now I still don't exactly know what the diagnosis is. my mum and dad and I have been sitting down before trying to piece together what was said.
He started off the meeting saying that no cancerous cells were found-which is good news ! he was talking a lot, but I don't think any of us were taking much in as we had been quite anxious before the meeting and the build up to this point has made us all quite tired.
I passed over my list of questions and asked him to go through them- the sheet with " what if results are negative/inconclusive"
in answer to my first question about -is there concern there is still malignancy, he said that cancer still cannot 100% be ruled out, he said that mum has had two negative brushings, forceps biopsy done with ERCP and another biopsy of the stricture site done, he said that he feels that if there is a tumour present, it is indeed very small and early in its stage
I then asked if FNA was done- he then said that EUS and FNA were not done, he said this was because he could clearly see the stricture, But I am confused as the ward doctor said that all the tests were done and mums letter had scheduled her for both EUS and Sypglass ERCP, so I am a bit puzzled as to why that didn't happen but didn't ask for further reasons at the time. He said that a biopsy was taken and he said that it came from the stricture site directly, it hasn't been directly confirmed whether that was done through the spyglass procedure.
He then said that blood tumour markers tests haven't been repeated, but he said that he is comforted that mums CA19-9 levels were normal, I
I asked him to go through the other reasons for the stricture, he said that IG4 autoimmune pancreatitis has been ruled out, he said that primary scelorsing cholangitis is very unlikely, he said that stones have been ruled out and mum has had no history of stones, I asked if it could be something like intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm or something premalignant,
he spent quite a bit of time saying that it could be a premalignant problem that needs close monitoring to see if changes were seen.
he said that the bile duct stricture is still present, it hasn't reduced in size neither has it increased in size, he said that the bile duct stricture still remains a concern.
He didn't really go into much detail about exactly what the pathology report showed, sitting here kicking myself for not asking.
He said that he wants mum back in for a repeat ERCP in 8 weeks time, he said that he wants to put in a wider stent- his words were "something more permanent but not too permanent, something that will last 6 months + as opposed to the one you have at the moment which usually clogs up in 3 months" I should have asked him if it would be a metal one.
He said that if an otherwise fit and healthy person was sat here ( someone without breathing problems), they would be recommending whipples surgery, but they are worried about offering it to mum, but he then said that if the surveillance visits show up cancer- then he would revisit the option of surgery.
I have been chatting to mum and dad and they are keen to run things over with professor lodge to see if he thinks that the recommendations are appropriate and see whether he would be recommending surgery-
do you think it would be good to ring mr sturgess up again and try and get some clarity on what was discussed today and then take all the info to prof lodge for his opinion?

Re: update on mum, this is a long long journey (20 replies, posted in General Discussion)
thanks clarem and lainy for your enduring support, It is so comforting to come on here and see the support and advice, I am finding it so difficult having to support my parents from a distance- we are a very close and small family both my mum and dads side of the family isn't that supportive and helpful so it really is down to me and dad to support mum and eachtoerh as a family- I worry so much about them as they do have good friends but don't reach out to them for support and they don't hae any other family support . I am visiting as often as I can taking time off work for these appointments and trying to get mum on some sort of treatment plan an help dad get some support and give him a hand with things a he isn't in best of health at the moment eiter. whilst work are supportive, however one colleague has made me feel that I need to work through this and get on with things and carry on, whilst I do my job and do it well, I don't talk about my mum and whats going on much but there are times where I just want said colleague to show a bit of compassion.
Lainy,I will put that question down aswell, I am heading back home tomorrow ready for mums appointment on Thursday , we are going to sit down and see if mum or dad have any more questions to think of,
thank you again, and I know have ranted on a bit above, it just help to type it out rather than it sit in my head!!

Re: update on mum, this is a long long journey (20 replies, posted in General Discussion)
thank clare for your kind encouragement, I have been feeling quite low about it all, as has mum, and the waiting really does grind you down, we just want to know what we are dealing with and get a plan together and support mum in that journey whatever road we have to go down
your suggestion of writing out lists of questions has been really helpful and I have taken time to type out a long list of questions for Thursdays consultation, ive done two scenarios , 1 if the EUS and spyglass results come back negative or inconclusive and 2, if the results show cancer,
I have been doing reading and research since all this started in may and feel that I understand a lot more about this cancer, the diagnosis and treatment available and will be going to the appointment with mum and dad as they are not scientifically minded and mum hates asking questions as she feels she is a nuisance, I certainly don't mind being the one to ask the questions to get the right answers and treatment plan,
Mum has had an MDT discussion at her local hospital but we wanted a second opinion as they ruled out whipples procedure due to her medical unfitness, they also stated that mum may not be fit for chemo and so we were left with lots of questions about trying to get a definitive diagnosis in order to be considered for chemo if it definitely is cancer and also to ask another team to review surgical options, Aintree have said that mum will be discussed at their MDT-in fact I think they have it on a Wednesday or Thursday morning.
I thought I would share with you all my list of questions, I migt have gone a bit overboard but I don't want any stone unturned and don't want mum to just be floating in the system for months on end only to find out later on that things may be to late to sort anything.
If results come back negative/inconclusive
-Is there still concern that there is still a malignancy ?
MDT report from Upper GI cancer meeting- 7th June- suspected pancreatic carcinoma from CT imaging, no obvious mass lesion seen on CT, ampullary soft tissue lesion cannot be excluded , suspected cholangiocarcinoma from ERCP and imaging, -double duct sign( pancreatic and bile duct dilation, mild intrahepatic duct dilation too) read in a journal that this may indicate pancreatic malignancy, distal biliary stricture intrapancreatic portion-due to length of stricture (2-3 cm on first ERCP, 2cm on second ERCP. Dr Meaden and MDT report in June state that severity of jaundice and length of stricture is likely to be malingnant, second ERCP distal biliary stricture found irregular and shouldered within CBD- have read in journals that the length and shape of mums stricture signifies typical features of a malignant stricture, read in journal and spoke to liver specialist nurse and notes on mums letter to GP state that negative cell brushings and biliary forceps biopsy doesn't mean that there isn't cancer, often brushings and forceps biopsy via ERCP often give inadequate yields. Elevated CEA levels –june blood test, Elevated CRP levels done in july and august? Pre endoscopy notes in august at Aintree state probable cholangiocarcinoma-tissue diagnosis needed.
-What did the EUS and Spyglass show?
-Was FNA done, were further brushings and forceps biopsy taken and results of these?
-Have blood tumour markers tests been done again, first set at local hospital showed raised CEA levels but normal range CA19-9 levels?
Has mums stricture changed in any way since first ERCP- reduced/increased in size,shape, location?
-Pre malignant? – such as intraductal papillary mucinious neoplasm?
-non cancerous?- chronic pancreatitis, IG4 autoimmune pancreatitis, primary sclerosing cholangitis, scarring from a potentially historical stone? Benign adenoma?
-what happens now, further tests- CT SCAN, repeat ERCP/EUS? Repeat blood tumour marker and blood tests, surveillance? Second opinion from professor lodge?
-Will mum remain under your care for follow up care?
-What if mum begins to show signs that stent needs replacing or is having symptoms associated with bile duct stricture issues, can she be seen by this team as opposed to local hospital team?
If results show cancer
-Where is it located?
-Confirm the type of cancer? positive biopsy/ strong clinical suspicion based on other findings?
-Any idea on staging and spread?
-Can curative surgery be done? whipples procedure? Bile duct only resection if in very early stage and only within bile duct? Liver resection?
-If no to surgery, why?, is this due to the tumour location/spread? Or is this due to pre-existing health concerns?
-Has mum had a thorough pre-operative assessment?results of these tests/assessments?
-Has she been discussed for surgical consideration at an MDT?
-Has a respiratory consult been done re COPD and spinal consult been done?
-What are the extra risks/contraindications associated with mums pre-existing health conditions if surgery was to go ahead ?-anaeasthesia-breathing/heart complications, spinal complications, very poor post op recovery?
-Can keyhole surgery be done?
-Second opinion with Professor Lodge on surgery?
-If not fit for curative surgery, can a bile duct bypass be offered to prevent need for replacement stenting or a metal stent be fitted?
-If no to surgery, what other treatment options are available?
-will mum be referred to oncology team?
-Will mum still be reviewed by yourselves?
-Will chemo be offered?
-Will radiation be offered?
-Will photodynamic therapy be offered?
-When can treatment start?
-what do you hope to achieve with treatment?
-side effects of given treatment?
-How long will given treatment last and how will it be set out- frequency, nature, location of treatment, follow ups?how will you know if treatment is working?
thank you in advance to anyone who reads it through , it is such a long post, sorry!!

Re: update on mum, this is a long long journey (20 replies, posted in General Discussion)
Lainy, please may I ask, did your teddy get a definitive tissue diagnosis prior to his whipples?
I have kept a spreadsheet detailing events and test results for my mum, I am strongly thinking of asking professor lodge to read over these and give us some advice as to whether we should be pushng for surgery in light of the concerns and mentioning of bile duct malignancy since june. I know surgery might not be offered due to mums pre-existing health conditions but knowing that we have tried is important.
I dont want to sound too cheeky but would anyone mind reading through my mum diary of events for me and giving some feedback as to whether we should be pushing for a surgical decision.
thank you again to all the wonderful people on this forum who have been such a source of support and knowledge to me since all of this happened with my mum,

Re: update on mum, this is a long long journey (20 replies, posted in General Discussion)
clarem, thank you for posting, I haven't been on here for so long I forgot I had to capitalise my first letter of my username to log on! your timeline of events ran a lot quicker than my mums for sure.
I have been doing bits of reading and understand that brushings can often come back negative and the consultant-dr sturgess had warned us of this.
I cant help but think that if mum was fit and healthy, they would be discussing whipples surgery by now, the original MDT report recommended a whipples procedure but then dampened their recommendations by then saying she was not fit for surgery
I think that because we have aske for a second opinion, this has delayed things plus Aintree reviewed the CT scans and ERCP from our local hospital and they wanted to re-run the ERCP before they did the specialist tests,
I really really am praying hard that next Thursday when we meet up again with the consultant they talk about treatment and confirm the tissue diagnosis.
I don't know what else I can or could have done to speed things up, I did however have to put pressure on our local hospital when I found out that they failed to send the referral letter over to Aintree or even bother to make a phoncall to Aintree.
The waiting is getting to us all now, especially mum, we are just tyring our best to reassure her and support her that we will get answrs soon and things will fall into place treatment wise.

Topic: update on mum, this is a long long journey (20 replies, posted in General Discussion)
Hello everyone just wanted to update you all on my mum so far
mum has been a bit poorly recently with an infection so ha been on heavy dose of antibiotics and shes doing much better now and has been working hard at putting a bit of weight back on.
mum has had her spyglass and EUS, they said that all went as planned, they changed the stent and then did the spyglass and EUS with fine needle aspiration, they took several biopsies, because mums procedure was done late on Friday and then she was recovering on Saturday-we didn't have chance to see the consultant and the ward doctors didn't want to go into any detail about the tests which I understood that they couldn't. we have to see the consultant next thursday, mums specialist nurse and one of the drs did say that mum needs to be prepared for the news on Thursday that it may be cancer of the bile duct, even though this has already been mentioned several times to us, they wanted to get mum to get her head around it. I had a look at mums notes when she was waiting for her endoscopy procedures and it stated probable extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma-distally located- tissue diagnosis needed for surgical consideration.
I just wanted to ask abut other peoples journeys in getting a definitive diagnosis, mum fell ill end of may time, first ERCP procedure done in june, we asked for a second opinion n 10th june as we weren't happy with our local hospital, due to delays in referring mum over to Aintree- it added another 3 weeks wait, then Aintree wanted to re-run the ERCP tests that our local hospital had done and repeat ERCP before doing the specialist tests that mum has just had now, They have said that due to their being no obvious mass lesion seen on CT scans, it makes getting a tissue diagnosis very difficult, the consultant at Aintree has said that just beause the two ERCPs brushings results have come back inconclusive it doesn't mean that the cancer is not there,
I know If mum is to be offered chemo they need a tissue diagnosis, but ive read on forums like macmillian cancer and spoke to a lady whose father has gone through similar thing to my mum, they offered surgery in the absence of a tissue diagnosis
I am happy with what Aintree are doing, in that they are being thorough but I cant help worrying that its been nearly 3 months since mum was being investigated and that we are missing a window of opportunity- surgery hasn't been ruled out by this team as they will consider her fitness for surgery without discriminating on the basis of her COPD but time is pushing on.

Topic: update on mum-having time to think and reflect (5 replies, posted in General Discussion)
hello all
got back off from my holiday and back home with my parents for a couple of days before heading back for work, holiday was lovely and very relaxing and gave me time to reflect on the busy stressful few weeks we have had.
An update on mums proceudre and results so far: mum had her appointment today with the dr at Aintree hospital following last weeks ERCP.
the meeting started off with explaining what they did. we were all under the impression that the procedure mum had done last week was the spyglass, it turned out that it was another ERCP where they replaced the stent as the first one was very blocked and not the right size for the stricture according to Aintree, so they replaced it with a wider and longer one and said that this new one will make mum feel a lot better and it has which is great.
the dr then said that brushings and a biopsy were taken, I queried whether they did a bowel biopsy and they didn't, mum now thinks that she got a bit confused when they were talking to her and now understands that the samples were done from the bile duct, im guessing if you are layed on your side and having sedation and the dr talking to you-its easy to get things a bit muddled!!
the brushings and the biopsy came back inconclusive, however they said that the stricture was long, irregularly shaped shouldered at the margins which indicate malingnancy, they said that they are not ruling out cc but mum has had two inconclusive samplings done now, some of her blood tumour makrers came back normal ca19-9 I think it called but another CEA tumour makrer came back abnormal and they want to repeat these again. the dr said that not everyone expresses the tumour markers so they are not reliable but they can help with the overall picture.
the dr then explained that he wants to get mum in to have the spyglass and also the endoscopic ultrasound, he said we would get an appointment date within 1 week, we got home from Aintree and there was an answerphone message with an appointment for 16th august, she will have to go in for a couple od days as she will be having a general anaesthetic and we are travelling a fair distance.
Aintree have been brilliant with mum so far, they are being very thorough, very clear about what they are doing but also neutral and not jumping to conclusions too quickly. the local hospital oncologist offered a plan of going home for some months and having a CT scan, at that point we didn't agree with that and asked for further tests and opinions, thankfully Aintree have reacted quickly to this and got mum sorted with her tests in a reasonable time frame.
The last few weeks I feel I have just been blocking off the emotional impact of all this and just focussing on all the technical.sciency stuff as a way of coping I think , it hit me today after the meeting and also having time away from my parents to think things through, that ive been lso been quite angry at my dad for his optimisim and the way he is shielding information from mum and thinking quite negatively about it all,
I got quite annoyed at dad after the meeting as he kept saying to mum its all very positive -I don't think you've got cc, I think its just been a bad infection and mum was agreeing with him and starting to say I don't know why I need these extra tests,
My dad and I ended up having an argument, I got upset and told him about the research that ive done- about the tests/diagnosis treatment etc, showed him the information in the MDT reports that we had received and explained about their comments in them stating that the stricture is highly suspicious of malingnacny. told him about how hard I have found these last few weeks, how i think im coping with this by doing this research, mum came in and saw us both upset and it was at that point that we all talked together, we talked about a lot of things and most importantly talked about how I was feeling, mum started to open up a lot as well, also dad, it felt good to talk about how we are feeling and knowing that we are all on the same page now with being realistic about what the next lot of tests may show and what may happen. it also reminded me that with adversity comes positivity and I am thankful and pray everyday that as a family we are facing this together and supporting eachother.

Hello all
Mum had her ercp spyglass r procedure today. It went well and she shpuld be able to go home tomorrow. Wedidnt get chance to talk to the consultant but he said before the procedure that he wpuld tell her as he went along what was happening as mum wanted to know. She had a nurse withher who told us afterwards that the consultant was very concerned at what he was seeing and that putting the replacement stent in was very tight going and difficult. He said that he managed to take biopsies in yhe bile duct. Mum also mentioned that a biopsy of the bowel or colon was done-didnt realise the ercp went down that far? We will get the biopsy results back in 2days but the consultant said to mum that what he was seeing indicates very strongly cc.

Topic: good news-aintree referral sooner than we think! (4 replies, posted in General Discussion)
hello all
just wanted to say I am very happy that the referral to Aintree for the spyglass ercp has been moved forward
mum was called to see the consultant today and it was decided that mum would have this done next Tuesday as opposed to the 29th juy
the consultant didn't pull any punches and said that they are almost certain its cholagniocarionoma of the bile duct or an adenocarcinoma of the pancreas and they don't want to let mum wait around fr weeks on end.
ive already got the contact details of professor lodge ready to see him privately if they say It definitely is cc or the pancreas cancer and if Aintree don't think mum wud be a candidate for surgerydue to her health etc, I would just want proff lodge to confirm or look into possibilities before we accept that it is palliative

hi gavin,
my mum got a 16 page letter from Aintree explaining the procedure and in the letter it also explained that we would be seen by the consultant afterwards and the results from the biopsy from the spyglass will be given that day as they have an onsite lab, mum and dad are very impressed with the facilities and the way they are explaining the procedure
so you are right gavin, feel very lucky to have mums care be dealt with this by this team.

Re: Aintree, pre-op and spyglass (8 replies, posted in General Discussion)
thank clarem, I will mention to mum about requesting the notes
the secretary said that the spyglass procedure is only done twice per month as it is such a specliaist procedure and piece of equipment
Reflecting back, I think aitnree is best equipped to deal with mum and don't think that getting prof lodge to review things so far wont make a big change, its best for mum to get these further tests done and stick with the specialist team
prof lodge also works at the spire hospital which is private.
thanks for clearing up the thing about the pre-op , as I didn't think they would be assessing for surgery as that has been clearly marked out in her notes and from two teams that they thought surgery would be highly unlikely for mum

Hi Lainy
With regards to prof lodge, I don't mean behind my mums back but mean paying privately for a consultation and mum is in full agreement that it would be helpful to have a copy of the MDT reports. It seems though if you have money you get seen quicker and if we can be seen quicker and get some answers from a top guy then we feel it is money worth spent.

Topic: Aintree, pre-op and spyglass (8 replies, posted in General Discussion)
Hello all
I spoke to Aintree hospital today and they have booked mum in for the 29th july,
they said that the spyglass procedure will be done on the 30th july and the secretary mentioned something about a pre-op assessment on the 29th july,
I asked the secretary whether the dates could be brought closer, and she said that due to the spyglass being a specialist procedure, they don't carry this out weekly and only do it twice per month and due to the delay from our hospital to Aintree- she has just missed out ,
I asked the secretary what the pre op assessment was all about and she advised me to speak with the specialist nurse at Aintree- she said that they do this to see if someone is fit for surgery
I have a couple of questions,
1, does anyone have any experience of the spyglass procedure- I have read that it is very accurate in detecting cc as it can get right into the bile duct, I know that mums bile duct stricture is nearly 3 cm long and its right at the bottom near the pancreas end as opposed to the liver end
2, am I reading too much into this that they may be thinking that mum could be a candidate for surgery- as the intital letter from the MDT said that the surgery of choice in this case would be the whipples procedure,
3, is there any way I can or my mum can request a full copy of the MDT report that wa typed up following on from the local mdt and the mdt at Blackburn , as If they are starting to consider whipples surgery, I would like to maybe have a consultation/discussion with proefessor lodge and maybe do this privately, I am guessing the best way to get a thorough consult is to have the MDT report given to us with all the facts laid out bare
I feel a bit calmer and so does my mum and dad, we still feel upset that the local hospital have messed us around and mum could have been in for the procedure by now and we could be talking next steps or preparing for surgery if that is a possibility.

I will be on the phone again Friday morning and will want some answers then. im praying it gets sorted as i am worried about mums wellbeing and her mood is just getting lower and lower, she reall needs to be strong for this and feel that she has the full support of the medical team, it feels as though we have been cast adrift and feel that because mum has asked for this second opinion/further detailed tests, that they maybe see us as a troublemaker.

hi gavin ,
thanks for the link, it certainly sounds like a great team with great knowledge and a willing attitude to do whatever can be done in improving peoples quality of life.
I spoke with the nurse specialist who works under the oncologist we saw on 17th june and she has rang the Aintree team and she has assured me that dr sturgess is very quick at accepting referrals and has asked me to ring her on Friday if we don't hear anything, I guess all that hard work yesterday leaving messages for the oncology secretary, speaking with the GP and also with Aintree directly has helped get things moving, so I am praying hard that mum will get her appointment to go to Aintree very very soon and we can get some proper plans drawn up.

basic communication is missing, hello from one hospital to another hospital checking receipt of referral is really all it should take and then they could have rectified the issue instead of letting it drag on like this.

Topic: referral to aintree hospital (12 replies, posted in General Discussion)
hello all, as some of you know ;mum wanted to get further detailed tests done at Aintree hospital and the oncologist agreed with this, we saw him on the 17th june, he agreed to refer on immediately,
I started getting a bit worried on Friday that we have heard nothing so I rang through to Aintree and the secretary to the doctor said that she has not received any paperwork or any phonecalls so I got my dad to fax her the referral letter that was sent to them on the 20th as we requested a copy of the letter. I then spoke with the nurse specialist who works alongside the oncologist and she said that the letter was sent to them on the 20th june but didn't follow it up with a phonecall.
So the secretary at Aintree asked me to fax the referral letter that came to my dads house, so I got him to do that and she said she would try her best to get things sorted her endm
Just feeling a bit frustrated and let down that lack of communication and monitoring has led to this delay
just worried as the weeks go on, things could be progressing and making it harder to manage and deal with.

White has that golden feeling
Carlsbad skateboarder wins X Games vert with epic final run
LOS ANGELES Shaun White has been in the seats at the Nokia Theatre, watching concerts and appearing on awards shows. What he did in that same venue on Saturday has to rank up there for creating the purest buzz of entertainment.
On his last run of the night in the X Games 17 Skateboard Vert, needing a monster run to overtake three-time defending champ Pierre-Luc Gagnon, White attacked the ramp with an epic effort that rivaled anything he'd done in winning two Olympic gold medals in snowboarding.
In the 60-foot wide halfpipe, he produced two variations of 540-degree spins that nobody else does and threw in a 720-degree spin that earned him a score of 93.00 and his second X Games gold medal. When White threw down his final trick, ensuring a big score, the sold-out crowd of 7,000 exploded in support of the most popular action sports athlete today.
Gagnon, a Canadian who like White lives in Carlsbad, had one last chance to catch White, but he fell on his final run. He earned the silver medal with 91.66, and Bucky Lasek completed the Carlsbad sweep by taking the bronze with an 87.66.
"His run was amazing," Gagnon said. "He did everything he wanted to do."
White, who has 11 Winter X Games gold medals, joyously hugged friends and family members behind the ramp, and it was clear how much the victory meant to him, four years removed from his first Vert title.
"It's insane thinking about how I would be feeling right now if I didn't make that run, compared to how I'm feeling now," White, 24, said. "It was the last run; you've got to do it. … I can't pinpoint a special moment in the run. It's a blur. I was running on auto pilot and determination."
White admitted that skateboarding had become something of a burden because he wasn't living up to his own expectations.
"To be honest, it was weighing on me," White said. "I've won in winter so many times, and I always felt like if I had to choose a sport it would be skateboarding. I haven't given it enough time; I haven't won enough. Today's another great step in demonstrating that I can do both."
Huston, 16, wins Street
Until a few weeks ago, skateboarder Nyjah Huston had dreadlocks that would have made Ziggy Marley jealous. The strands flowed well beyond Huston's backside because the 16-year-old had grown them all of his life.
Huston decided on a whim to cut them off several weeks ago, and not only does he look more mature, his skating has never been better.
Already dominating the Street League circuit this season with three victories in as many tries, Huston scored the biggest win of his career on Saturday, landing one impressive trick after another to take gold in the X Games 17 Skateboard Street Finals on the Event Deck at L.A. Live.
"This is my best one yet," said Huston, a native of Davis who is the youngest to win the Street. "I've won in Street League, so I know what that feels like. To win X Games, this is the greatest feeling."
In the Finals jam on a street course that featured obstacles such as broken concrete, building facades and loading docks, the five finalists skated on 45-second runs, with each skater's best score counting. Huston went 7-for-7 on his second run and landed a kickflip backtail big spin on the handrail of the biggest stair set.
He scored 91.66 and edged Brazilian Luan Oliveria, whose best run drew a 91.00. San Clemente's Ryan Scheckler, who won his first X Games title at 13 and was defending the Street title, finished third with 89.00.

Down in Perry, the Taylor County Bulldogs played host to the Union County Tigers. Shane Boggs and his boys looked to remain undefeated on the season.
In the first quarter, Union County back to punt, but Chason Andrews' punt is blocked by Taylor County's #56- he doesn't stop there, recovering the ball and giving the Bulldogs great field position.
In the second, Taylor County's Eli Grambling hits Tevin Jones perfectly down the field... he fights for more yards-
That sets up a Bulldogs touchdown, #15 Eli Grambling taking it in himself to but Taylor County on the board first.
Taylor wins 20-10.
Overall the boys in Perry looking sharp on the field. Should be a good rest of the season for the Bulldogs.

(WJLA) - A new study by the Alzheimer's Association shows that women over the age of 60 are twice as likely to be diagnosed with Alzheimer's than breast cancer.
Helen Downs, 82, didn't expect to live with her daughter-in-law, but she had to.
"She kind of knows us," Mary Driver says, "and some days she does, and some days she doesn't."
Downs' family says they noticed their mother's memory and demeanor was changing six years ago. She was later diagnosed with Alzheimer's. Four of her sisters also had the disease.
"The hardest part is watching her lose her memory, her memory of who she loves, who are the people in her life that love her, her recognition of that, that is the hardest part," Driver says.
The study also says "more than 13 million American women either have the disease or are caring for someone with it. The physical and emotional stress, isolation and depression of care giving takes a tremendous toll on womens' health and well-being."
Driver quit her job to take care her mother-in-law around the clock.
"We wanted her here. We wanted her to live with the people that love her for as long as she can, and we don't know what's around the corner," she says.
Five million Americans are living with Alzheimer's; about 236,000 people are living with the disease in the D.C. area. More research is needed to figure out why women are affected more by the disease than men.
