For those of you who don't know, as the guy responsible for sending get well cards to Cascader members, Dwayne Jacobson just had the occasion to send one to himself! Seems just before leaving White Rock, BC, for the Route 66 Rally he fell and badly hurt his leg. Thinking it was something like a bad sprain they drove down toPortland for the rally with the intent of heading east from there. Once at the rally it was obvious that it was more serious than a sprain and he went to have it examined. The diagnosis came back that he had fractured his hip and would require surgery to have repairs.
A bitter disappointment obviously after all the months of planning and preparation, but there was no choice but to have their kids come down and take him back to BC where screws and a plate were implanted yesterday. They hope for a speedy enough recovery that they might still be able to dash across country at some point to join the group.
On another sad note, Cascader Carol Winchester (Dan's wife) is on her way to Boston for treatment of a rare form of cancer of the lining of the lung. Only a few reported cases a year and the Center in Boston where they are headed is considered one of the best in the world. We wish her God's speed for a full recovery.
