Unhappy Update on Zooker

I talked to Zooker's mom this morning, and the news is not good. He has been diagnosed with leukemia. The type/treatment I do not know, but he has some really good doctors on his side. Plus, Zooker is too ornery to let something like this keep him off the water. Please keep those thoughts and prayers coming and I'll keep you updated as I get any new info.

Feel really sick to my stomach . I've been reading up on leukemia and if caught soon enough it can be treated, lets hope so.

It is hard to believe that a man that can move a boat around, by himself 2 weeks ago, can have this. Stay strong and positive. This is nothing that you can't whip the crap out of. Prayers are with you!!!!!!!!!
