@SteveByrnes12

When my son comes home from school in tears, angry and sad because I have cancer, I don't feel like I "got this."

 

[Johali]

Damn, I hope he beats that crap.

I haven't seen anything, either. Besides saying all the participants acted like asses, what more could be said?

[Marcingak]

I know I'm late but that was a really good article by Marty Smith. He's probably my favorite sports journalist. Also, glad to hear Byrnes is doing better.

 

[DanicaFreak]

good news.

 

[dpkimmel2001]

@KarenByrnes

It's mega 3-chemo day for @SteveByrnes12. Hanging here 6+ hours. Hopeful he will sleep for next 4 days & not be sick.

 

[Johali]

Thanks for the update DP.

 

[be9ak7ts16]

He is one tough dude. Keep it going Steve.

Doug Rice interview with Steve Byrnes. Worth a listen. Jump to about the 6:20 mark to get an update on his battle.

He's a guy that has a passion for life and for Nascar.

 

[DanicaFreak]

Byrnes is an awesome human being

@KarenByrnes
Chemo day for @SteveByrnes12. Labs 1st to make sure numbers are good enough for treatment.

 

[Allenbaba]

Byrnes is an awesome human being

He sure is. One of the best.

This whole thing is really scary.

 

[dpkimmel2001]

Very cool and a helluva honor.

@WinstonKelley

What an honor to join @BJewkes to welcome @SteveByrnes12 to @NASCARHall Voting Panel. He'll be strong contributor!

 

[sdj]

I listened to a live interview with him yesterday on Nascar XM Radio. He was upbeat and sounded very positive. He said he was over being upset and taking each day as they came. He still has a long regiment of Chemo to do and will not make it to Daytona, but, does plan to get back to the track sometime this spring.

It was a great interview, glad I was where I could listen to it.

[be9ak7ts16]

Keep fighting Steve, you'll never know how important you are to this sport.

 

[dpkimmel2001]

Steve Byrnes co-hosts "SiriusXM Speedway" with Dave Moody 3p-6p ET tomorrow (Thursday)!

 

[be9ak7ts16]

Every time this thread gets bumped I get a knot in my stomach. I wish I had Sirius radio right about now.

Ditto.

Terrible feeling.

 

[dpkimmel2001]

Bump as a reminder that Steve is on in 5 minutes.

 

[sdj]

I've been listening to him, this afternoon while driving, on XM, sounds hoarse, but, good. Glad to hear him and he is up to speed on current events.
