Södergren unwell

One thing I picked up while looking in the Swedish press, is that
Södergren missed Gällivare because of illness. He has suspected
testicular cancer, and has been operated on already. He is awaiting
test results.

Best wishes to him.

Sodergen is one of my favorites, sending prayers his way.
Lance conquered it, Anders can too.

Apologies for being pedantic, but one doesn't conquer testicular
cancer... you're lucky enough to find it early, have a non-aggressive
type or one that responds favourably to available treatments, and
hopefully have a competent doctor. Prayers are also a wonderful way of
feeling like you're doing something useful when you're not. Maybe send
some money to a cancer research institute instead?

Guess I'm in an intolerant-of-fuzzy-thinking mood today.

Ski well! And I hope Sodergren recovers...

PS. Check definition #4. Lance did conquer it. As for prayer, I'm not one
to do it, but didnt want to sound kooky and say something like "sending
positive universal vibes your way."

As for being intolerant Chris Cole, your post was ... did you wake up on the
wrong side of the ski trail yesterday?

Actually, I just read (via Wintersport.as) that Sodergren is OK. The
growth was benign. He'll be back training right away and on the WC
starting line very soon.

In La Clusaz.

But not without a new nickname, I'm afraid...

Looks like the prayers worked.
