Hopefully 'real' minor is the case and thankfully he received immediate care.

Get well soon!

Know there's a Cicero IL Fireman who had a stroke and three months later he was back at work up on an 80ft. ladder. Hopefully you'll make the climb to the announcer's booth far sooner.

Vic, we missed you Sunday and hope you'll be well enough to come back soon. I still remember your earthquake call when you said you loved us all; we all love you, too.

A nice BloodHorse blog about Vic with Youtube videos of some of his calls.

There's a spot below for comments.

DRF.com is reporting that Vic was released from the hospital late Sunday afternoon. That is great news. The article is at the bottom of the page.

A "ministroke" ? What the hell? Haven't had one of those since I was 13 and stole my dad's Playboy!

Seriously though. You'll all never know how much your kind words and well wishes have meant to myself and my family.

Tina has been copying and giving me all the messages from all the sites and believe me I could actually feel a positive physical reaction.

I'm feeling MUCH better. Freaky thing boy. The doctors say it's isolated and passed so I'm ready to roll on Thursday.

I'll tell you one thing for sure. It'll be nice to have just one job till the fall. I know I've obsessed way too much about trying to be leading rider with Joel.

We'll still work hard but by then I know I'll have learned to reconcile it better and take more time to just rest and relax with my family.

Again. From the bottom of my heart THANK YOU so much for everything. Your kindness has been humbling.

Let's go get em Thursday!

Vic
