This is there story
Hello ...my name is Tracey mcivor...I would like to tell you a journey myself and my husband have been on the last 7 weeks . My husband being peter mcivor...
He rung me feeling unwell being at work this rung alarm bells for me as pete has a very high pain tolerance he came into ED ..I was waiting for him as I work at the cdhb as a orderly ... He was very unwell.. He had a CT scan and that showed a mass in his lung chest cavity area....1 week later they did a biopsy waiting anxiously for 2 weeks.. we got told there wasn't enough collection... so at st Georges last week they took the mass out which is a tumor.. He was in ICU at st Georges after surgery they deflated his lung he was fighting for his life he got transferred to ICU public hospital that nite because it was safer for him .. He was a week in ICU ..and did very well to go to ward 10. He came home on Friday 28th which excited us all as a family and fantastic friends. ...He got settled in at home well ....Sunday morning I phoned a ambulance.. He is now back in ICU public fighting a massive infection he is back in a coma . And faced life threatening surgery urgently on Sunday nite 30th May. Huge road as a wife for us and worrying times as a family... And all our fantastic friends... He is a good old southland man . And it is going to break his heart to have to give give up work for a long time we don't know what road it's going to take us down ... Thank you so much for your time in reading this ... love T&P ❤

Update on Pete 13 July 2021
So just giving you all a update
Last Monday pete and I along with his children went to oncology to be told the plan for pete
This was very scary for us and sadly the news is pete has Metastatic thymus carcinoma cancer, which is very rare, and the people that have it in New Zealand is in single figures. So needless to say it's not curable or treatable as they know nothing about it . So treatment options are limited.. they going to give him a scan in 3 months to see where we at . We also got told that pete only has 2 to 3 years ....none of us have a crystal ball . We have made a few decisions this week and it's still undecided if pete going back to work .
Thanks for your time . Xx
