As loyal readers know, Sally has a lovely daughter, Nora, who lives in Boulder CO. She got married about 3-1/2 years ago to a great guy. You may remember Matt as King of the Mountain. Matt’s friends tend to be cycling enthusiasts, as well. His best man, Phil Zajicek was no exception.
Last week, Phil experienced a horrific bicycling accident while riding in Boulder. He lost an arm and suffered many severe injuries. His medical outcome is still unknown at this time, but we do know he will incur incredible medical expenses, and need extensive rehabilitation. He was the breadwinner for his young family. A Go Fund Me campaign has been launched for Phil. We are linking to the site here to offer our support in any way we can. Phil and Liz – you are in our hearts and thoughts every day!!
I’m so sorry to hear what happened. I’m praying for him and his family and have donated. Cycling accidents can happen anywhere in the world. There are far too many cycling accidents, sadly many fatal, in London alone. Sending warm wishes and prayers from the UK. xx

I’ve donated and put the gofundme link on my facebook page, maybe some of my fb friends will donate, too. Thank you for giving us the opportunity to help a stranger in need. Michele Miller, Merion Station, PA
