Kira Crawford Update

Kira’s double mastectomy was performed this morning at Legacy Meridian, and the doctors are very pleased. The whole day went about as good as it could go. The initial biopsy of the lymph tissues came back NEGATIVE so we’re very positive and motivated by that. However, the full course of what treatment method they’ll use won’t be known until the actual tumor is biopsied 8 ways to Sunday. So, we’re on the clock for about 2 weeks until the labs come back.

Once out of surgery Kira was immediately cracking jokes, housing pudding and small ice cubes at an alarming rate, and complaining of an itchy head. She had team and her family around her and was thankful for everyone’s support so far. Then she ate another pudding cup and promptly fell asleep.

So tonight we race Tabor for her. We will have tons of pink ribbon and tape, so come get yourself an armband. The team has also ordered custom chainstay stickers saying “F*ck Cancer In The Face” and we’ll have them shortly at the races. Quenton offered to shave his head, but as of tonight, still has a rather f’ed up mullet.

Thanks again for all your support. It means everything to Kira, Kmac, and all of us. Stiff upper lip…..
