Charlie's health
Sep 30th, 2007, 7:35pm
 
Thought y'all might want to know Charlie is down with what probably is Lyme's disease, apparently contracted while he was out hunting in Missouri a couple of weeks ago.  Sounds like it's gotten worse since he missed our ride earlier in the week, when I first heard about it.  He went to the hospital Friday for additional tests and is just not feeling too good and sleeping 20 hours a day.
Any of you inclined to prayer might remember to mention him.

Wow, so sorry to hear that. Charlie has certainly had more than his share of unlucky health issues in recent times. Here's hoping he is up and feeling better soon.

Best thoughts, Charlie... fight it off!!!!    I had also heard (from Ray?) that you had crashed recently...  try to keep things positive as best you can!
 
John Schlitter commented to me on Saturday that I was "the fastest guy he'd ever seen on an XP"... and I thought "he hasn't seen Charlie!"

Update Charlie's health
Reply #5 - Oct 8th, 2007, 7:59am
 
Talked with Charlie last Friday afternoon.  He was feeling much better, apparently the antibiotics are beginning to take hold.  Test results ruled out Lyme's disease but not sure exactly what he has.  Since he's responding well there will be no further efforts to find out what it is.  He said he's still feeling weak but hopes to be back on his bike within a couple of weeks.

Great to hear that it's not Lymes. Hopefully, whatever it is, he'll make a speedy recovery.
