UMARA Co-Owner & Crew Chief of Corson/Savage Racing Steve Savage is currently undergoing treatment for MCL leukemmia at Northwestern Memorial Prentice Hospital. Steve began his chemotherapy treatment this past Friday and will have a stem cell transplant on Thursday and will be hospitalized until the first of May if all goes well.
Get well wishes can be sent to:

Chicago IL 60611
or if you have his cell number give him a call.
UPDATE: The transplant was moved to Friday and while he tolerated the procedure well, he has had a few problems. They are not unexpected but are there none the less. We did understand that this week will be the week of side effects. There were no side effects from the chemo he received. Just headaches, and an ear problem which are a result of the transfusion. The great staff at Northwestern are keeping good tabs on him.
He wanted me to Thank all of you for your thoughts and prayers. They are appreciated.
