Ride Coordinator Update
Posted: Thu Oct 02, 2025 12:17 pm
Some of y'all may have noticed that I haven't been around for a month or so. Here is the deal.
The day after my 65th birthday I received a diagnosis of bladder cancer. On the 11th of Sept. I had Trans Urethral Resection of Bladder Tumor (TURBT). Dr. says it was Urothelial Carcinoma, and was just in the lining of the bladder (T1). On the 12th my urethra all but sealed shut so I got a catheter and piss bag for five days. On the 29th I went to SRHC emergency room and was informed of a urinary tract infection AND kidney stone to go along with the recovery from TURBT.
Things are mostly better, but now I am hoping that the UTI gets fixed before the 4.5 mm stone comes out (or they have to go back up in there and drag it out).
I should, barring any more unforeseen B.S., be back on the road next week.

p.s. - Having a "backup" ride coordinator would be a good thing going forward. Let me know if you are interested in helping out.
