Friends,
We’ll be getting together from again from 9:00am – noon on Wednesday and Friday at the gym. I hope you’ll join us.
How would you like to do something exciting and entertaining? Come out and cheer John and Todd on as they are racing in the Tour Of America’s Dairyland series.
Here’s a link with the shedule and location of the races. https://www.tourofamericasdairyland.com/schedule/ The hand cyclists are amazing athletes. The rest of the races are interesting, entertaining and exciting as well. Todd is only racing on Thursday evening. John is racing more. John was very instrumental on bringing handcyle racing to this series. I hope you’ll come out and cheer them on. If you can’t make it, I’m sure they’ll be happy to share their experience when they see you.
We realize the virus is not gone yet but it looks like the numbers are way down and many of us have either had COVID or have been vaccinated. We’re backing off on the mask wearing request and leave it up to you to make good decisions about wearing a mask. If you have concerns, please wear a mask. Either way, please be respectful.  Thank you for being so understanding, cooperative and respectful through this entire pandemic. I’m thankful we’re getting through it.
One of the most important things you can do is to stay home if you have any symptoms or know you’ve been exposed to someone with the virus. Please don’t come until your symptoms go away. Let’s also give each other some space when talking to one another and continue wiping the machines down before and after you use them with disinfectant. Let’s stay safe!
Dr Becky Thomas and her PT Assistant student volunteers will be here again this Wednesday. We’re fortunate and grateful to have them! They’ll be with us this week and next week yet. Please come and allow them to help you. You’re aslo helping them by sharing your challenges of living with MS. It’s win / win!
Ricky Heldt will be here on Wednesday and Friday again this week. Many of you have reported making great progress with chronic pain relief, range of motion, walk better and a new sense of hope. Please keep in mind that consistency is key. We need consistency to realize the benefits long term. That’s why Ricky is here both Wednesday and Friday. We want you to have long term relief. Ricky will have a sign up sheet based on first come first served. You can pick the time slot that works for you. I highly encourage you to take advantage of Ricky’s Tai Massages each day and sign up for your time slot as soon as you get there.
Have you been to our MS-Just Keep Moving website lately? Mike and Cal continue to add new content each week. If you ever need a little inspiration, you can resort to some of Cal’s beautiful and amazing photography and inspirational messages by clicking here. If you want to know more about any of Cal’s images, just ask him. He personally took all the pictures himself. He loves sharing his experiences. Did you see his post from Friday?
It looks like we might have rain for our Friday morning bike ride this week. If it’s raining, we won’t be riding. If it’s not raining, we will be riding. I hope you’ll join us if it’s not raining. We lucked out last week as it quit raining right before we rode.
We’ll be meeting Friday at 7:00am at Nettesheim Park in Pewaukee. It’s on the SE corner of Hwy SS and Oak Street. The GPS address is: N26W27495 Prospect Ave, Pewaukee, WI 53072. Come a little early so you can get your bike out of your car and be ready to ride as close to 7:00 as possible. We’ll ride until about 8:45.
If you need me to bring a trike or a tandem for you, please let me know as soon as you can so I can bring them.
If you’d like to ride but don’t know how you’d do it, please let me know. We’ll do our best to figure out a way to get you riding. We get pretty creative 😊.
Last week, our prayer group was once again…powerful! I just love the way we share, pray together and witness prayers being answered weekly. Thanks goes to God and to everyone that joins us.
Our prayer group will be on zoom this week as Larry is on vacation. We’ll get together and share, talk, listen, give thanks and pray however God leads us.

I encourage you to share a smile with someone. Perhaps you could give someone a call that you haven’t talked with for a while just to see how they’re doing. We all could use a little extra love and encouragement during these times.
MS is tough. Let’s stay calm, focused, healthy, flexible, have faith and learn as much as we can about the challenges of each day as we make good choices. Better days are ahead.
In God We Trust!
