Get Well Steve Dillman

SSTRACER323 · 03-28-2008, 04:55 PM

I was just informed by Steve that he is starting treatment on Monday
after the Indy Div Race. Here is part of Steve's letter to me.

I am starting radiation treatment the Monday after Indy points meet. I had prostrate cancer in 2002 and had it removed. I had been checking ok until last yr. My PSA was starting to rise and it is at a point now that I need this. The doctors feel that this should take care of it. I will have 5 days a week for 7weeks of treatment.
I would like for you to keep me in your prayers. My phone is 317-409-3550. I can't express how important it is for men 50 and over get a PSA Test every year.

Thanks
Steve

Steve, I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers as i know everyone will.
I will see you in Indy and we can get caught up. Stay strong my friend

Steve.
I will be missing Indy so I will not be able to chat with you then. But I will definately be thinking about you and Lori and I will keep you in our prayers also.
Goals..
1. Win Indy S/ST
2. Get back to being healthy.

You are one of the nicest people I have met @ the track and I look forward to sharing some laughs again with you soon.

Tony, Lori & Richard Hall

Steve
We are sorry to hear about this new fight. If there was ever anyone who deserves a peaceful and fun retirement, it is you and Frosty. With your tenacity I am sure you will get thru the tough times ahead. I look forward to talking to you again (at a resonable hour).

Good Luck Steve, I will be thinking about you. Everyone will be supportive of your therapy. Keep your eye on the goal of getting the therapy behind you and back to the races. I hope to see you soon.
We are all getting to the age where carefully taking care of our health is very important. I am glad you have been keeping an eye on the blood test..

As many things in life, this will come and go, this will be a distant memory. Good luck with the treatment, you'll pull through tis NO PROBLEM! As far as the Jersey Pizza, maybe next time here take a slice back and have it tested. I think we are all eating chemicals out here(thats what makes it taste good), we are just used to it! LOL

Good Luck, See you at the races!
