Ed (Erags) is back in the hospital for Chemo Round 4. We're hoping he'll be discharged Sunday. This is the rougher of his two chemo regimens so we could use 
ray: that he tolerates it better than last time. Things were a little delayed yesterday since there is a nationwide shortage of bicarbonate. He has to be on this during his even numbered cycles; the hospital only had one bag of it with his name on it. Once they came up with a solution that didn't involve him having to take 72 tablets/day :yikes: his chemo started.
It was such a gorgeous day I decided to ride the RT. First, I headed north to the military base to pick up a few things, then I enjoyed a leisurely ride into Pensacola...ta da! I made it...two counties involved in my ride! :yes:I met a new Spyder owner when I stopped for gas, but he wasn't on his :spyder2: at the time (a blue RT). He noticed our third brake light and mentioned he didn't realize the Ltd. RT came with them...I told him that they didn't (but should) and that Erags had done the electrical modifications on our RT (pointing out the other lights to him). I told him about Spyderlovers and our local riding group. I'm looking forward to seeing him and his wife soon.
We're hoping andray: that six (rather than eight) rounds of chemo will do the trick for Ed. I'm going to walk in the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society's fundraiser Light the Night Walk next week. If anyone would like to donate, please visit www.lightthenight.org and look for my name or Team Ragsdale. Thanks.
Happy Halloween, everyone!

Praying for Ed always.
hyea:I left the hospital this afternoon to find a note with a name and phone number, asking me to call to discuss my "kick ass" bike! :thumbup: While putting on my jacket and helmet the note writer came over; I had a lengthy discussion with him about :spyder2: before riding off. I told him to feel free to lurk on Spyderlovers, even though he doesn't own a :spyder2: yet. In two days I've ended up talking to two different people about the advantages of being in the :spyder2: family...I need to print up more cards to hand out to folks.
