Eric, though we have never met on the field I saw this post and felt obligated to share with you. A bit less than three years ago I rec'd the same diagnosis. I was placed on a transplant list and because of the cancer diagnosis I was eligible to be fast-tracked on that list. 17 months ago I rec'd a new liver. My recovery was better than I could have dreamed. 4 months post surgery I was rehabbing the second floor of my house. Bottom line, find the best surgeon in your area, and don't give up hope. You can recover. Best of luck -Gary

Eric:
I've had the honor to play against you in a couple of CS games.
You are always a "class act" and I thank you for those memories.
My thoughts and prayers are with you.

RE: To All my Esteemed Opponents
Hello Eric,
You have been one of my long term opponents and a good friend.
Stay strong. My family will send positive thoughts in your directions for as long as needed.
You can get through this.
Take care of yourself.
We will see you again soon.
Erik

RE: To All my Esteemed Opponents
Hi Eric,
I hadn't heard from you in a while and I was hoping you were still busy with remodeling your house.
I don't have any words to say except that I hope that you pull through on this and that the meds and care you get will pull you through this asap.
Try not to worry - my mom had cancer and she pulled through no prob, as did my uncle George.
Just keep your head up, ok?
Take care, and I hope to talk to you again soon.
John

Eric,
I hope you can overcome this and get back to normal health. You have been a loyal Blitz member, and a friend to all of us at the Blitz. I remember you helped me playtest a couple of scenarios, and that is greatly appreciated.
May you get well soon,
David Galster

Eric. Although we have never played a game together I would like to wish you all the best. Hang in there and don't let the bastard beat you. God Bless. Chris.
