***UP DATE***

The Doctors at Mayo have begun a treatment (Chemo) for Dwayne. They are going to do Two Months and then see if it is killing the cancer. At that point they will decide what is the best course of action.

We are trying to determine what course of action will give Dwayne the best quality of life, for the short time he has.

They talked about just sending him home with narcotics til the end. However he would be so "Out of It" that he would not be able to do anything.

The other course is the treatment. However, if he is just going to be SICK the whole time he may stop the treatment and go home till the end.

The engine that Kroyer built is a High Performance Race Engine. Basically Dwayne's car is a race car in less the SCCA roll bar. The engine and the brakes are both being built to race as was the chassis. That is why it was suppose to have a 42 gallon Feul Cell and Halon Fire Suppression System. The car is also comming with 2 sets of tires and rims. One for the track and one for the street. The original idea was that we were going to bring the car to our Viper Days, Viper Racing League and /or the The Michelin Challenge Series and run the car. However, the car never got finished and the whole season ended in October. Now he is too sick to compete.

I have bought Dwayne a couple die cast cars. For his 57th birthday last month I got him a 1:18 scale Frankilin Mint 427 Cobra (Red). Before he left for the Mayo Clinic I had him open his Chrtistmas present. Which is a CS autographed Daytona Coupe 1:18 scale (blue & wht). I have seen on line silver 1:18 scale Cobras but have never been able to buy (Auction ended). If anyone know of one I would very much like to purchase and send it to him. It would be nice for him to have in his room while at Mayo. Kirkhams sent him somthing from Utah this week, I do not know what it is. All I saw was the electronic receipt.

One last thing. I would personally like to thank all of the folks who have posted here, sent cards, gave advice, and helped out. I hope that each one of you has many, mnay days a head of you driving your cars in the sun. I hope that you holidays are full of loved ones and great joy and that the new year brings you all great health and wealth.

Happy Holidays & Merry Christmas!!
