How , when an obituary notice is posted here, few people comment. At least we could all say how rotten it is that our brethren are succumbing to the monster. Rev, give us more details when you can, i barely remember these people, but i do remember Juan's posts and haven't seen either of these fellows say much as of late.

I am saddened to hear of his passing. His last thread was to ask about traveling to Germany...9/6/07...http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/sh...ad.php?t=26923
Rick, I like your title to this thread about Juan's passing. We are all warriors in an unrelenting battle. I am sorry that life tossed Juan more to battle over...cancer. As if PD isn't hard enough! cs, yes I understand what you are saying. Many threads go without much reply from this membership, and I too have never understood it either.

...but we're still in this together. I remember reading his posts and thinking, "the guy has no fear." I'm inspired by his fearlessness. Enjoy the ride, Juan!

I can't believe the bad news. I chatted regularly to Juan using Skype. The reception was amazing, considering he was in Chile. I spoke to him quite recently and he sounded fine. I said in a recent post that an advantage of having PD is you meet the nicest people, Juan was one of the best.
