Eish, typo sneaked in. Let me make it very clear: GOD is good, ALWAYS!
Oupa G! Jy is 'n lewende bewys daarvan. Thanks Nicolai van der Merwe On 10 Jul 2012, at 8:19, "Nicolai van der Merwe" <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Good is GOOD, Always. I can also start cycling on an indoor trainer today! Yeah, weeks earlier than anybody anticipated!

Last Thursday we had two newbies, Carina and Stefan. This report is about Stefan who is my son-in-law. You see, for more than seven years Stefan suffered from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome also known as "Yuppy Flu" - that debilitating disease that doctors still don't know the cause of or how to treat it. Before he got the CFS, Stefan used to be an active young man riding the Argus in around three hours, but after he caught it he was restricted to a life of constant rest with barely enough energy to complete his Master's degree. A year ago he could not even walk a hundred meters and had to use a wheelchair at airports to get on and off planes. He tried numerous remedies, but nothing seemed to improve his condition. Family and friends were constantly praying for his recovery. About a year ago he started a very moderate exercise program and has been increasing the intensity very gradually. Many days it seems he was going one step forward and two backwards, but lately the progress was increasing almost dramatically. When he announced last week that he wanted to join me for Dark & Dirty, I was sceptical, but kept it to myself and encouraged him to do it. So last week was very special, even epic, as I am sure no one riding would even have suspected that Stefan is anything other than a regular mountain biker. And he enjoyed it, especially liking the drop-offs and technical bits. I really believe that Stefan's ride was nothing less than a miracle and an answer to many prayers. Praise the Lord, He is good!
