As many of you have PM me about my cancer treatments I thought I'd come out with some good news.My last CT scan confirmed,after my last Chemo group, I've lost about 50% of the mass in the three sites that are of concern.So not only have we stoped the growth of the cancer we've cut it way back,which is a good thing.I want to thank the guys all round the world who have prayed for my recovery.We'll keep up the Chemo through the winter with hopes of makeing the Georgia rally in the spring.Fast Eddy and I are close rideing buddys and have plans to be there.

That's great news Jack, I'm really happy to hear the chemo is working! 
Always remember to be yourself. Unless you suck. Then pretend to be someone else.

I'm SO glad to hear that, Jack. Your ears must have been burning because I was thinking about you about 3 days back wondering how you're doing. Keep it up and we'll see you at the rallies later this year.

Good report and an encouraging prognosis. Get better.
