Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer

I wish you could see it too. Not much longer and she will be finished.

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer

When you get a magazine spread, I'm sure we'll all want to know what magazine and which month it will be in. Tootsie is by far the most detailed build I think I've ever seen. Or at least have been able to see the details. And I'm certain I don't even know about half of them! Simply amazing!

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer

Wow thank you. It's hard for me to slow down on all the details. The 72 I build took 4 months to build start to finish. This one is way slower and I know it can't be built over night. But I need to get it done and fast. I was not going to say a word but I feel I need to let you guys know my moms cancer is back. We just found out on Friday. It's not looking good so not sure what's going to happen. She can't have anymore radiation or chemo. So I think it will be more surgery. It's scary for us right now. We don't really know what is going to happen but we are going to hang in there and support her the best we can. Thanks again you guys for the support it means a lot

Your Mom and family are in my prayers too. Hoping for the best for her and for God's work with the doctors. I know it is hard and it seems you are getting more than your share of dealling with this, hang in there!

Thanks guys we are doing well. I went over to my parents house last night and just hung out. Going to be doing a lot more of that so there wont be to many updates. I am going to leave the inner fenders to Mario and his dad and hope it gets finished on time. He promised me it would be done by September 18th so were will see if we make it.
