Way to go George!!!

It's about the fun of it all. Nobody knows that more than you and Audrey.

Today is the 4th anniversary of my neobladder surgery and 4 years cancer free.

Nothing slows me down either.

George,

How dare you go out there and have fun. Don't you know that you are suppose to crawl in to some dark corner and be depressed the rest of your life? :huh:

Your posts are all ways up lifting and inspirational. And to all of us you are the winner.

You keep on having all the fun you can. :)

Remember that you may have lost the car race, BUT you are winning a far more important race.

Proud to say you'r my friend. (And favorite racer)

George and Audrey... Your story exemplifies living life after cancer... and winning! Any victories after that are just icing on the cake, and any little bumps in the road (or in the engine) seem much smoother to get over. So glad you have had such a FUN summer!

Next season... get your crew chief (Audrey) to video you out there racing on that track so we can all share in the excitement!

Best wishes... Catherine

George,
Loved reading your post- it warrants a new forum thread of its own "Life after Cancer", not just lost here in chitchat, as it is an inspiration, not just to everyone who has met you here, but to newcomers who have been devastated by the news they have received, and need some re-assurance from someone who hasn*t just been there, done it and got the teeshirt, but taken up a challege normally only tackled by someone who still has all their bodyparts intact, and competed seriously. Looking forward to your racing news for the next season ,
Diane
