Small World


Wow, I am continually humbled at what a great and small Drag Racing world we live in. Got a flood of notes today from a mention on Del Worsham's CSK team Blog on NHRA.com. I have never met any of Del's team before, but having Bob Wilber mention someone like me whom he's never met is really special to me. Its not exactly how I invisioned seeing my name for the first time on NHRA.com, but it still means a lot to be considered worthy enough to be mentioned. Big THANKS for that!
Thanks again to all who have sent notes my way, they really help me feel not so alone going through this. Though the pathology reports came back positive, it is relatively mild and caught early, so the doctor is not going to go to drastic measures just yet. The cancer is not in danger of spreading, so I am thankful that the worst I have to face is the idea that maybe children will not be in my future.

I am not giving up on any of my dreams, and maybe this will motivate me further to really going after them. Everything kind of gets put into perspective sometimes, and this is one time where I really have a fire burning inside me to get back out there and do what I love. There is something to say for Tire-Burning, Gear Shifting therapy.....

I am blessed with friends and family as dear as all of you!

I am so glad to hear that the cancer was caught early and you're in no danger of it spreading! Also, I'm glad to hear that this has driven you even harder to pursue your dreams.
