Hello

Sorry for disappearing again. Several months ago I went to the hospital with blurry vision and a systemic BP of over 220. I was having really bad headaches too in the previous weeks. I've got stage 5 chronic kidney disease and have started dialysis. Just wanted to thank you guys for all the fun times racing over the last few years. Didn't want to just disappear without saying that. I might come back to race if I get my energy back.

Re: Hello

Good to hear from you. I hope you get well soon and get back in here racing again.

Re: Hello

Re: Hello

Alex, So sorry you are going through this. Stop in and visit even if you can not race. Would be great to just chat.

So sorry to hear this bad news Alex and hoping the best for a good recovery. Do your best to stay as strong as you can for this huge hurdle.

You made racing here a lot more fun, especially when I could tease you about stupid stuff. You're a good egg Alex. You've brightened my life sir.

Shoot me an email if they give you a break from the naval station .

As the frickin' french say... Au revoir.

Re: Hello

Man, I hate to hear that, Alex. I lost a close friend who was like a second father to me to the same illness, almost 10 years ago. Sending positive vibes and well wishes your way, and hopefully we'll meet again on the track soon!

Vrooman,

Sorry to hear about your troubles, I hope you feel better soon.

Tootles!
