Update for Tally Shaw.
This morning, around 4am, I believe, I had to be sedated. At 7 am, they stopped the sedation, and at this time, she has not come out of it. They have run a CT scan and many other tests, lots of blood tests, and still can’t find anything causing this.
It’s been a fix this will cause that.
Prayers are much appreciated.
Go and wish the Tally Shaw who allows me to do what I do a Happy Birthday. Without her, you never know what I might be doing.
Happy Birthday TALLY!!
It’s like early Christmas for Jake’s Rc Raceway! Thomas E Shaw Jr and his staff with Show-Me Dirt will be back on hand for the 2025 Slick Tack Nationals! Thank you Thomas & staff. We greatly appreciate you all for doing this for our track and racers!
