I have had so much support during my little drama that it is mind boggling. My gf (the love of my life) has been, as always, the best person anyone could have on their side. Tonight we celebrated 14 yrs. together. My closest friends who showed up to be with her and me throughout the ordeal...my cycling club comrades showed up at the hospital, came to my house and showered us with texts, e-mails and phone calls....my motorcycle buds who have constantly contacted us for updates...childhood friends from over 60 yrs. ago in NJ who are still in touch and folks on this list and a Ducati list I inhabit...this is what makes it easy to go forward. I am, by nature, a positive attitude kind of guy but even if I wasn't I wouldn't dare let all of them down.
