This quarter we wanted to honor one of our beloved members, Cheri Haggard. She has truly been an inspiration to all of us.


Here is my chance to say thanks to all you Trail Angels. Thanks to so many Angels who have offered to help and are concerned about how I am doing, to those who have had similar experiences and let me ask questions and more questions (really my greatest need), for flowers and my great "No Fear" cap to cover my bald (but cute) head, for those of you who have kept me in your prayers (what a great strength) and thanks to all the Angels who ride at different levels - I always have someone to ride with, whether I have no strength and need someone to hang with at the back of the pack or I'm feeling a bit energetic and can jump ahead a pace or two and you out in front who I am anxious to start chasing again - give me a month or two - I'll be on your tails again! I love the Friday ride - I know no matter what level I am at, I have someone to ride with.

Recap for those of you who have no idea what I am talking about - Oct 2003 breast cancer diagnosis, surgery, chemo - should be finished by the end of May, then still scheduled for the rest of 2004 a couple more surgeries. And somewhere in there hopefully will be my new bike and some good race before the end of the year! I'm doing great, thanks for asking. How am I handling it? This is one of those really big things that is just another little thing. You get it; you take care of it; you go on.

Hi everyone!

I just wanted to let everyone know i'm all done with Chemo. And enough weeks have gone by for me to be feeing really great again. I'm back running, biking and kayaking. I don't have that Chemo tired feeling any more. Now I have the "Oh, I'm a Mom" tired feeling that I've had for the past many years. gee, that feels good.

So, thanks again for all of your love and prayers and calls and letters and everything else.

And, oh, yeah, just had to show this picture. My son wanted his head shaved for Mother's Day so that we can race growing our hair back! cute kidlet (and my hair is growing - pretty sparse but it's about 1/4 inch now).

Cheri

Do not look forward with fear to what might happen tomorrow, for the same everlasting Father that cared for you yesterday will take care of you today, tomorrow, and every day. Either He will shield you from suffering, or He will give you the unfailing strength to bear it. Be at peace then, and put aside all anxious thoughts and imaginings.
