Cancer Cancer Everywhere!

     Every where I go these days there is someone telling me that a friend or family member was just diagnosed with or had just died from cancer.  From kids to adults...all the victims are the same.  Unfortunately...the survival stories feel few and far between and I wonder if I'm not being told them because of people's tendencies to dwell on the negative or if they aren't happening?

     What is going on around the world?  Is there more cancer out there? or are we just hearing about it more?  Why have we not found a cure yet?  or have we and the big pharmaceutical companies don't want it known?  

So many questions.....not enough answers.  

     What I am learning though is as a Tour de Rock Rider you are a listening board.  People want to talk to you and want to tell you their story.  They don't necessarily want you to speak.  They just want to heard and hugged.  Together we are stronger and I am bracing myself for a heck of a lot of stories and hugs in the next couple of months.  (I'm sure there will be some tears also!)

53 days until Kick Off!!!!
