I want to tell you about a group of great college kids who are doing something wonderful for people like you. My daughter is on a cycling team called Texas 4000 For Cancer, and Friday morning they are beginning a 10-week cycling journey of 4,500 miles from Austin, Texas to Anchorage, Alaska, riding an average of 90 miles a day. Each rider personally raised at least $4,000 for cancer research and all along the way they will stop at hospitals and visit cancer patients, telling them what they're doing. Most of the kids have blogs you can follow daily all summer if you want. My daughter is Claire on the Rockies team and you can find her blog and all the other riders' at Texas4000.com . It's a pretty cool adventure and shows just what someone else was saying earlier, that the world is full of a lot of wonderful people, and many of them are young! I hope you get better VERY soon! In the meantime, check out Texas4000.com, click on Cyclists, and then Claire on the Rockies team... :) I'll be sure to tell her about you!

I'm so glad to "hear" your laughter, and I'm pulling for you to crew for Fatty at the big race this summer. (Floyd Landis is slated to ride Leadville this year -- if your hip gives you any more trouble, maybe he'll let you borrow <a href="http://www.floydlandis.com/blog/images/hip_resurfacing.jpg" rel="nofollow">his bionic one</a>?) A supersized hello to all the kids: Your oldest, who can outprogram me; your second, who can outbuild me; and your two youngest, who can each outcute and outwit me on their own, never mind as a collective bargaining unit. You might be small and young, but you're a big and awesome part of the team -- hang in there, kiddos! Hi, Susan!

I just want to tell you that my best wishes are with you. As per FC comments, you must be one of the best wives in the world. My wife is in the same group, of course (just in case she reads this).

Mr. Experiment had a very clever idea and it is good to have friends like this. We are all sending our best wishes to you, Susan, and to Elden and family in these trying times but the number one thing is to think positively and get energy from that and from us. (The Biohazard socks were a brilliant idea by someone). That’s a pretty nice selection of cards–I even see the one I sent!

I read about three sites every day (this one, Jills "up in Alaska" and an Australian triathlon forum) and I get a lot of great reading, advice and some inspiration from people who love bikes like I do. We've all been touched by cancer in some way and if I can cheer up one of my friends by sending a card then that is the least I can do. Keep strong and most importantly keep fighting.
