Hello from the Wheeling Wine and Whiskey super-producer Lorenzo.  Just got to say that the boys are back and have a major job of getting caught up.  I actually had to dig out the cattle prod to corral Jason.  And Chris…well he was easy since he can’t go anywhere for the time being.  So, I got them seated in front of the mics and like riding a bike, they got down to it.Welcome them back!

Hi, this episode is me, Chris, going solo to give a very personal update about my new and unexpected journey into my health crisis. I let my hair down and opened up to tell my story that is still unfolding. I want you all to know that I am fighting everyday for my life and diligently following my team of doctors instructions and taking the crazy number of medications to help my body heal.  I will recover, I will see you all on the trails again, I will see you at races and other events.  But for now I need to stay relatively isolated to avoid any possibility of infection while my immune system is compromised.Please, if you notice something unusual going on with your body, don’t ignore it or put it off. Go see your doctor and try to get regular blood work done.  A regular visit to my doctor in July literally saved my life.I have Aplastic Anemia and I will recover! Chris

Jason was up at this year’s annual Sierra Trek event put on by Cal4Wheel and he was able to sit down with Sue Lee Bun, Gina and Jeff.  The topic of conversation was the new foundation that is being set up to help fund the fight against cancer.  Be sure to listen and also please be generous in your support to this disease that impacts so many people.
