You know Glenn I have to hand it to you. I give you crap all of the time for driving that little wimpy ass red beetle beetle at Litchfield, but you are indeed a pedaling machine. I am impressed as hell. Your friend Sue has a good friend in you.
The Sloan Kettering Cancer Center is a definite "name brander" when it comes to curing these terrible cancer things that happen to some very nice people that we all know. And some of them are even us. Next year I am good for more.
Keep up the good work. |

Another year has past and we're still "cycling for survival".
Things have not been good for Sue. She's has a regrowth which has impaired he speech and motor skills. She has problems forming sentences and finding words. It makes it very difficult to talk on the phone. She has problems writing and reading so email and texts are out. She's pretty much shut in and has 24x7 care.
Last year after having a stomach tumor removed, my mother had a tumor in each lung. One was treated with radiation and the other with surgery.
My cousin found a lump in her breast at which time she was diagnosed with breast and lung cancer. 6 months later they found a tumor in her other breast.
Finally my future daughter-in-law, Jamie, had her father pass away from a 6 year fight with brain cancer.
It's been a bad year.....
Saturday March 5th, will be my 4th year at Cycle for Survival. This year not only will Jamie be riding again ,but Stacy and Toby will be joining. We hope to raise more than we did last year and i'm asking for your help to achieve that goal.
Donating is easy, just go to http://www.iride4sue.org go down to the bottom and click on my name. You will be directed to my MSKCC webpage where you can use a credit card to make a donation. 100% of every penny raised goes directly to research. Not one cent is used for salaries, promotion or advertising. Your donation is also tax deductible.
Thank you for your support and hopefully, one day I will not have to do this.

I've passed my $2500 goal and $3000.
There's still plenty of time.
As an incentive, whoever makes the largest donation, i'll give them the opportunity to pick from the "GRAB BAG of POINTS".
