Well done you.I know it’s hard and very scary but you are doing great.Perhaps it would be good if there was someone who could be there with you? This is very hard to do alone. Thoughts are with you.x

You are a gift to your wife and family. We should all have someone like you.
May you find peace during this difficult time.

There is nothing to say to make things better there is nothing to do to make things better. Your situation is what it is. What will make all these good bad and ugly times worth it in the end is knowing you never left you never faultered even if you did question your sanity! It’s always darkest before the light…. Your light is coming and you can then hope the worst is over and work on better days.
Even though my home is not in the same kind of termoil as yours these are the things I repeat to myself and then I go ride! These are the stregths I wish to pass on to my boys. What are yours?

I’m certain those two hours were wonderful and will remain with you forever! I remember the one time my father became lucid during his last days and everything he had to say to each of us. When slipped back asleep is the only time I fell apart. Such sadness and such joy mixed together.
If you need to cry or gripe and complain, do it! It just might make you feel better. And most of us reading will fully understand. Take your anger and frustration out here. We will listen and understand and pray for you even more.
I’ll keep you and your family in my prayers.

Hello-
I just linked to your blog from bsnyc and I felt compelled to comment.

First on the incredible strength you and your family are demonstrating.

Secondly on what an incredible douche bag VeloSD is. Really SD… you bring douchiness to a level I’m not sure I’ve ever encountered before. You must be from Spain….

Wow, this mountain bike guy really understands race tactics so well to know that Contador pulled an “amateur” move? That “amateur” move won him the TdF Mr. Wannabe Director Sportiff. What was that you say? He screwed his team? Life isn’t fair, you haven’t figured that out by now? You should spend less time criticizing stuff you don’t know that much about or do you just love kissing Lance’s ass that much?

After your previous two posts that brought tears to my eyes it was wonderful to read a post that brought a smile to my face.

I’m so glad you and your children got to spend those two good hours with Susan.

Keep on writing, cycling and enjoying life, this blog has so many wonderful memories within it.

You, Susan and family are in my prayers. You remind all of us to live in the ‘now’ and to be thankful for ordinary moments.

Trust that you are doing the right things for Susan. I’m glad that you and the boys had those 2 hours of quality time.

On the pro cycling side, I am hoping that you’ll be able to write something hilarious about Team Radio Shack. I think Lucas Euser HAS to move from Garmin to TRS, because he looks like a Shack employee, except he needs tape on his glasses.
