Our Shane Ivie needs your Prayers and Support
I just got an email from our knifemaker pal, Shane Ivie, telling me that his father has just been diagnosed with cancer and is undergoing more tests and investigations to discover the extent of his condition. Shane is very close to his Dad and understandably he is worried sick at the moment.
Shane has given me permission to put this on the forums to let you guys know. Your prayers and best wishes of support, would be much appreciated and felt by Shane and his family at this time of need. Shane won't be able to get to the forums for a little while, so he asks for your patience and understanding. Thanks. Jason. __________________ JASON CUTTER BLADEART Jason Cutter @ Dr Kwong Yeang Knifemaker, Australia (Matthew 10.16) |

Dang, Its hard to stay away. I thought I would jump on to check an email to track a xmas package and my email was full of warm wishes from my friends, You guys are the greatest. Im not a very emotional person but like I told Jason earlier, I feel like my emotions are right in my throat and seep out a 100 times a day. Work is a bear. Im taking tomorrow off to go to the cancer institute for a CT Scan tomorrow and that will tell us everything. Good or Bad. It has to be good because im not ready to let him go. It just doesnt seem right that the best man in the world has to encounter something like this. Just sickens me. He is 59 Years old and feels like 30. He is as healthy as an ox. In the last few months we have put well over 1500 miles on our four wheelers, Chased Elk, Deer and Turkey. Knowing he feels so healthy makes me believe all is well and that weve caught it early. My only two brothers have severe Diabetes and I thought some day it will only be Mom, Dad and I if this diabetes does a number on them.......well now who knows.
Seems like sometimes life just isnt fair but I guess we keep chuggin. Thank goodness for friends and I do have a lot of them. I consider all of you my BEST friends and cherrish your thoughts and prayers for my Father at this time. Sorry to ramble but I got a little carried away. Hope everyone is have a Merry Christmas so far. Shane |

Shane,prayers are indeed inbound. I feel your pain as yesterday I found out my older sister has been diagnosed with stage 3 bladder cancer. She is 62, but is multipi-handdicapped with cerebral palsy, retardation and wheelchair bound.But she works everyday and lives at a great facility. Looks like we both had some bad news for Christmas. Hopefully all will work out for both our families.Dave Cole

Shane, when we talked the other night on the phone, I thought I detected something, some worry or concern. It's going to be a tough time no matter what happens. My Dad is 84. He raised me through age 16, then we became partners at my shop in 1980, and we've been together every day ever since. I know what you're going through, as my Dad has had some close calls. The enevitable will happen, for better or for worse, that's part of life. I'm hoping and praying that you and he will continue to have a great and caring relationship for a very long time to come. You have my number anytime you need to get together. Try and keep a positive outlook, we're all with you in this.

Shane, Dave,
Hang tough, cancer is a bugger. I'm starting to think it is going to hit all of us one way or another. My mother, mother-in-law, and Grandmother all died from it, enjoy those close to you this holiday season. Now, for better news. My uncle sounds a lot like your dad Shane. He fell while camping and went to the hospital to get his side checked. Turns out he had an internal organ (spleen I think) that was full of cancer. Good news is they caught it early and he is doing very good. No re-occurances, looks like it gone. Finding it early is key. Best wishes to all of you, and hope that things turn out well. --Carl __________________ --Carl N-T Porkin' Pig Price ?? KN Auctions to help a member in need and score a GREAT deal! ?? |

Shane, you and your family are in our prayers. We understand - at least to some degree - what you're going through and we do care. You're not alone. Have faith that things will work out the way they are supposed to.
