Thanks everybody!
They said no food or drink after midnight. Lucy asked what I want for dinner and a wine and anti-pasta sounded the best.
My left arm has been numb and loosing motor since last January, should have fessed up sooner but we were having sooo much fun racing, I just stalled it for a while. Now I’ll get er done.
Stacey, I have a solid cervical spine (2 surgeries) that was injured in 1995. I broke 3 vertabrae (ruptured 5 disc’s) and a portion of one of them rotated into my spinal cord and as the surgeon said “you have a very sick spinal cord” They got it removed and I have a very trick cage in there now. They will fuse 2 more levels thurs and hopefully that will be the end of it. Hell you’ve 33 vertebrae, I can do without 9 of them. I know you have had cervical fusion as well. I actually feel fortunate to be able to do the things I can! As you know it will slow a guy down for a bit, but I fully intent to get back in the game. I did not let my recovery take it’s course last time like I should have, but this time I’m going to keep it cool.
A lot of our friends have offered to help Roman next year till I’m full strength.
Kinda funny, Doc Conyers nailed it in Vegas as far knowing something was up.
I cherish the friendships we’ve made racing with you all and look forward to making more great racing and memories soon.
Thanks again,
Rick
