Trevor's Story
Trevor Austin was born July 2nd, 2012 at Froedtert hospital in Milwaukee on a prenatal ultrasound. Trevor was diagnosed with a condition called posterior urethral valves. This condition caused substantial damage to his bladder,ureters, and kidneys. He is monitored frequently at children hospital in Milwaukee for his chronic kidney disease. Trevor has one kidney that is functioning. But it is moderately damaged on April 1st, 2014 Trevor's mommy brought him to Children's Hospital of Wisconsin for a routine ultrasound on his kidneys ureters and bladder. His kidney doctor discovered a concerning mass on his liver at that time. Trevor was quickly referred to an oncologist, surgeon, and liver specialist the very same day, after a lot of testing surgery and a hospitalization Trevor was diagnosed with Stage III Hepatoblastoma. The chances of getting this childhood liver cancer are less than 1 million. The only cure for this tumor is to remove it at the time of diagnosis. The tumor could not be safely removed because it was extremely close to some of the major veins and arteries in his liver. Trevor is undergoing an intense chemotherapy regimen requiring multiple hospitalizations. Hopefully the treatment will work to shrink the tumor enough so that it can be safely removed. If not, Trevor will require a liver transplant. Trevor has many challenges ahead of Him, as the doctors are unsure if his working kidney will work well enough to support his intense chemotherapy regimen.
