Sad News Regarding Rick (Ricky_Racer)

[Patrick]

Hey all,

I just wanted to provide an update for you. I talked with Rick today. He has completed his physical therapy and is up and around.

Unfortunately, however, this month he was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer. He sounds like he's in good spirits, though, and he's taking it day by day. I hope that you'll join me in sending good vibes and thoughts in his direction. I'll certainly be keeping Rick in my thoughts and prayers.

He said that he hopes to be back online in October and I encouraged him to stop by and say hello if he has an opportunity.

Thank you.

Patrick

That's no good, but it sounds like he's fighting it. My thoughts are with Rick as well.

Thank you all for the prayers & good wishes.
I am walking, pretty much doing aal I was before, just doing it a lot slower.
A year ago in August I was told I had stage IV lung cancer in my left lung, after 13 chemo treatments, it appears to be in remission.
More good news, I even have a new girlfriend.
