Hello my online family,

I know we have been all worried about Eric so I sent a message to his mom on facebook, I sent her the link to our board so hopefully she will sign up. Anyway here is her message:-

Hugs Sonia

"Hi Sonia! I am glad that you reached me. I have been wondering how all of Eric's CSN friends could be reached to tell them that Eric is in Hospice at our home. The only therapy left for him was an end line drug called Zoloto (sp). He opted not to do it and is now in Hospice. He has been in a lot of pain lately but Hospice has been working with him to get it under control. The Hospice people are great! Thank you so much for inquiring about Erica and thank you so much for your prayers. They are much appreciated. Please let everyone at CSN know. Anyone is welcome to send me a Facebook message to check on Eric or is welcome to send me a message at sandyharvey7@gmail.com"

    Thanks, Sonia
    I'm not on FB, so it's good to get some news. I can understand him suspending treatment, he's been through quite a bit in his fight. I hope that hospice can wrestle his pain and get that under control, he deserves that.

    I've met his mom before and she is really one sweet lady, I'd take her for my own:)

    Thanks for this post! On my way to chemo now and just checking in.

    Sonia,

    Thanks so much for the update on Eric, it's really good to hear that they are trying really hard to manage his pain at this stage in the game. I hope his Mom understands how much we all care about Eric.

    Thanks for updating us, I have been wondering how Eric is. One of his friends (that I do not know) sent me a message on Facebook asking me if I knew how he was doing, since she saw I had wrote on his wall. So I sent her a message letting her know what you said. Thanks!

    Thinking about Him
    Just have always been thinking and praying for him. Thank you for this update. Don't really want to bother his mother right now, but glad that she has corresponded with you on what is going on. My love and hugs to him and his mom.
