Pilot/motorcycle traveler

International Airline pilot for 33 years. Motorcycle rider most of my life. Diagnosed with Pulmonary Fibrosis, a terminal lung disease in 4/22, and had to stop flying because of it in 6/22. Decided to do some bucket list rides and raise money for the Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation so I rode Europe for 2 months and then from Virginia to Panama and raised over $20,000 for Pulmonary Fibrosis for the PFF for research and education. Had to stop in Panama because I was getting more sick and then was diagnosed with Lung Cancer in 2/23. Currently in Chicago awaiting a bi-lateral lung transplant.
