I'm sick.  In the middle of summer.  This means my serious riding is on hold until I can take a deep breath without going into coughing fits for a full minute.  So riding has slowed but this has given me something perhaps more precious:  Time.
My mom's close friend, Debbie, entered hospice care last week after repeated bouts with breast cancer.  Seeing Team Fatty San Jose could use an extra body, I decided to join as a virtual participant.  I've raised $130.66 on my San Jose participant page.  
Twin Six generously donated to each San Jose participant to bring them above $100, hopefully sealing the Team Messenger award in San Jose.  Feel free to donate there in honor of Debbie's fight.
Fatty wrote another gut-wrenching post about Susan's fight against cancer.  They show so much grace in trying circumstances and I feel privileged to be a part of the team in support of Susan.  
I have another side project going for the team but I'm struggling getting other folks to participate.  I've been able to get started the last couple of days and I hope I can get it done soon as it seems Susan has taken a turn for the worst.
Cancer sucks but there are some most excellent people involved in the fight.  I hope you'll join in.
