To All my Esteemed Opponents
Gentlemen, I really appreciate your concerns with my health. I was diagnosed with liver cancer a week ago and it appears to be rather advanced. At this point, it appears that I just don't have the stamina to complete any more games. The lethargy has me staring at the computer rather than diving into the games as I normally would. And Im having trouble remembering who to send what to. As I could not ask for a better bunch of guys to hang out with on the electric battlefield I want to thank you all for a great time. Hopefully I will get stronger down the road and will let you all know as soon as that happens. Keep up the fight, Eric

God Bless and hang in there Eric.
I've been fighting kidney stones and feeling sorry for myself, so you've at least put things in proper perspective.
Get healthy.
Regards,
Dan

Prayers for you and yours.
Eric, I do pray that you find peace in your heart and return to us soon.
Virtual battlefields can generate true friendships?

RE: To All my Esteemed Opponents
Eric, you are without equal. I doubt there is a person at the Blitz who won't go out of their way to help you with this in any way we can. I've always said you're one of my favorite opponents. You're one of my favorite people as well. Stay positive, stay strong, we're all thinking of you and keeping you in our prayers.

RE: To All my Esteemed Opponents
Eric as well as being a genuinely nice man, you have always been a ready and dedicated opponent, your energy and enthusiasm for the game beyond doubt, you fight with tenacity win or lose and always come back for more.
We have always had a game running between us since we virtually met nearly 20 years ago on the long gone frontline wargame club and I followed you here, through good and bad thick and thin and I am very glad to call you my friend.
My thoughts are with you and I hope we still have some games left to play once your feeling stronger.
All my best
Terry
