Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
You know, I was thinking the same thing. I think I'll just pull my build off the board

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
Come on guys you are making me feel bad now. But in all seriousness thank you for all the kind words. Remember this is my last build so I am going off on this one. I have built 4 of these trucks in the last 4 yrs so I have to make this one the best. That's why I got the people involved in the build that I did. This project has a ton of meaning to me and this will be the one I keep. Glad you guys are enjoying the build

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
Thanks guys glad you like it. My mom is getting around well. Still using a walker but getting better everyday. Got a call from the Dr today and they stated that cancer was skin cancer that started on her leg. They are going to biopsy the lymph nodes on the other side to make sure she is clear of cancer. So looks like we may have dodged a bullet only time will tell. Thank you for asking
