Lee has passsed.....Pray for Chantal

Eric,
Thanks for letting us
Eric,
Thanks for letting us know. My prayers are with Chantal. They as well as you, are too young to battle such a horrid beast. I've seen so much heartbreak on this site in the last few months. It just lets us know, we need to keep fighting to make people aware of the prevention of EC.
I ran into an old friend today at the store. She had a coupon for Prilosec. She said her doctor told her to take it permantly because she has acid reflux bad. I asked her when the last time she had an endoscopy. She said never. I tried to give her some knowledge, but when someone is being treated by a doctor, they don't want to believe what we have to say. They don't realize that doctors are ignoring how rampant EC is becoming and ignoring us and our complaints until it's sometimes too late. Even slight symtoms like I had--I never had reflux, just heartburn, should not be ignored.
Excuse me Eric ,for going off, but my heart hurts so much for Lee, you and all the other of my friends on here. Even though I am NED now, I am still in there fighting.

My prayers are with Chantal that God will put His arms around her and give her comfort in the days ahead.

God bless and be with you, Sandra

What a sad news. My thoughts
What a sad news. My thoughts are with Chantal in the family.

Thank you Eric
How sad when a life is cut too short by this disease. He and Chantal fought a courageous battle. They are both close to my heart as I go about my day.
Peace to you all as we mourn yet another loss to EC,
Jo-Ann

Hate to see another fighter go down....
Lee fought a strong fight. So sad that he wasn't granted a victory against EC.

Chantal was among the very 1st to welcome me here. I will always be grateful to her and Lee for providing guidance and widsom in their posts. I learned how to be a better caregiver from her posts.

Prayers of peace and strength to the family and to Chantal.

Hi Brian
I hope you are still felling well today.
I just wanted to say that you are in my prayers and that you will find a lot of help here if you make your message into a new thread,
I don't know that much yet as it is really new to me, but everyone here is so kind and helpful that you could get answers to most of your questions really quickly if you make a new conversation.
Keep well Brian
Hugs and prayers

I hate this site sometimes
I haven't been on this site for awhile and then I saw this post. Eric, I'm so sorry for the loss of your friend. My heart goes out to Chantal. I've been reading these posts for several months and I hate seeing news on hearing about our dear members who lost the fight to nasty EC. Chantal, I don't know you but I'm soooo sorry for your loss.
