Hey Chuck, I've been on family/work leave from DM other than my quick posts... Had to go back a bit to catch up with you. Sad news indeed. But you are a pro. You have handled adversity and mega-success as well. I hope that you only return to the passion you love that much stronger. So sorry about Boston. Hope it comes back to you as soon as the next running.
