Phil Marx

This is a news about one of our easy riders leader. As you all know Phil Marx had been a long time rider with wayfarers and he was to lead our wednesday ride.few days back Jeff sent the news that Phil had a fall few days back and he is in the hospital and wanted a new leader for the wednesday ride. Phil telephoned me on Tuesday evening to tell me this news which shook me. He was riding with Uxbridge section week before last, after about 20 miles all of a sudden he felt unbalanced and fell down other riders helped him up and he got on the bike again after about 2 miles he fell dizzy again and fell down and hurt himself. The ambulance was called and he was taken to the hospital where they asked him why he fell. When he told them that he felt unbalanced they did a scan on his head and found a tumor; he was taken to Royal Marsden where they confirmed that the tumor is cancerous. He is waiting to get admitted for treatment which he will know what kind. This is the news so far. He promised to keep in touch and anything I hear I will let everyone know.
