I got goose bumps looking at the photos in this site....We graduated high school together, and both started at Ga Tech in the same class. Ed left Ga Tech, after which time, I had not heard anything more until last week! I graduated Tech and returned to Orlando to start my practice. One more common thing....I too cycle....not as much as 10 years ago though. Ed, I'm pullin for ya!! Please email me if possible. If this doesn't reach Ed directly, would someone please forward the entire message to him. Thanks!....Rick Cohen I just heard about Ed.

They truly are amazing athletes, and I love your idea that we should all spend a day in their shoes. What a great perspective that would be!

It takes a lot inner strength and determination to rebound after such serious physical disasters. It also takes the support of family and friends...and sometimes strangers. When we speak or write of heroes, Mike Utley's name should be right up there with the best. Thanks for reminding us of how strong the human spirit can be.
