Chemo did wonders, there was a chance he could keep his organs.
They put him on a 6 week stint of BCG treatment... which means they fill his bladder up through the ..... with a solution of bovine tuberculosis and let it sit for a few hours. supposedly it is suppose to activate the antibodies to help with left over cancer from chemo.
Well after 6 weeks we got the word he is cancer free. un-fricken-believable.
It will be a never ending battle though, it has a high reoccurrence rate, but BCG treatments once or twice a year should help.
Tough as nails is right!

That's amazing news to hear he is cancer-free. We will all keep him and your family in our prayers!

Robert, Corey said he is ready whenever I can get the car down to you guys.
TommyZ said he can probably get my car to Dallas shortly after the Detroit AutoRama, so hopefully you, or coreys shop, or Keith or someone could meet him in Dallas and take possession of it. We are runnin out of time for Texas Revolution though, bummer.. but it is what it is.

since I had a free winter and some spare cash... I commissioned some work done to the exterior... my girl is no longer a sleeper... but I think it is going to look wicked cool. (attached below is a sneak peak of the rendering)
only issue is... it will have to be pushed into AutoRama. hahahahhaha

hope all is well with everyone... too many people to list. I just love ya all.
enjoy your cars, hopefully I will be with yall sooner than later.
Even if the car's not ready for Texas Revolution, you better be down here anyway to hang out and enjoy the festivities!

Congrats first and foremost in the bill of health being cancer free. That's great news.

The car is good news too. It is in good hands. We know that.

Hey.. thanks all.. I really appreciate it. We had a few rough days, but nothing can keep the Gilmours down... that is for sure.

here is another teaser pic for the AutoRama next week... hopefully it is not still in this state. hahah

there are 6-7 points to highlight on this car once it is done.
a few for looks, more for function, cannot wait.
*zip ties are for placement.... not for final. haha
