Just took this off eric's website (sorry for cut and paste):

The Experts


The cancer is gone. Well, as far as the experts can tell. We are waiting for some pathology and histology reports but it's all looking good. I am way ahead of my forecasted position. Apparently I should be in bed 24/7, eating through a straw and communicating by paper and pen. No thanks, I've some tunes to write... I am sore and eextreeeeeemely tired. My appetite is back to normal and beyond and I feel very positive. I am eating and speaking normally, and according to those who know, look completely fine. I can honestly say with great clarity that life is already better than it was before the cancer (B.C). It is going to take some months to get back up to physical par but when I do... The messages on the guest book page reflect the incredible show of love and affection I received. Schucks! You guys are too much! Kidding aside, my e-mail Inbox was regularly full over the past fortnight, and when the e-mail count when into four figures I had to stop even trying to reply. I may never get to reply to each person who wrote, e-mailed, left phone messages, but please know that with each message I smiled even stronger and brought it down deep inside to store for the months and years ahead. Thank you very much for your support. It inspired me and motivated me incredibly. In the days after the operation I received messages and phone calls from California to China, New York to Berlin, Glasgow to Southampton (literally!) and my heart swelled. I began to remember that I know some really cool and magnificent beings. Anyway my right shoulder is hurting and this typing takes longer than it used to. I need to rest. Any good books anyone? See you along the road somewhere. Love ERIC

Great News
