Team LIVESTRONG gathers around the team bus every night at 6:00 for a team meeting. Once general "house keeping" is taken care of in the meeting we are privelaged to have someone in the group share their story with us.
I am overwhelmed by the sense of reality that hits me upside the head. Cancer and how it affects us becomes more real to me with every word spoken by the people I am riding with.
I came to RAGBRAI for many reasons but the main one has been to connect to this group. I haven't done a great job of meeting people (introversion strikes again) but I have met a few and I have most certainly been touched deep down by these stories and by the people telling them.
