Update on my favorite stoker - Last week I thought I might have lost him.

This might be a bit off topic, but I posted in the 50+ about the ongoing saga of my 6 y/o grandson, Tyler. To make a very long story very short, a week ago last Tuesday he was diagnosed (80%) with a fatal brain disease after suffering a seizure on Monday.

This past Tuesday the spinal tap results came back negative, taking this horrible prospect off the table. They now think it was all just a very rare reaction to the experimental antibody treatment he was on to prevent cancer re-occurrence.

Here is a pic of my buddy on our maiden tandem voyage back in August, just before he went into Miami Children's hospital for the month of September for a stem cell transplant.
