My sincere condolences to Bob’s family and friends. May God bless and comfort you all in this difficult time.
Bob’s legacy in his work with the Corneal Dystrophy Foundation and Fuchs Friends was life-changing for so many over the years, including me. Bob was an invaluable source of information about Fuchs, was very candid and honest, and valued sharing important information to help Fuchs patients above considerations that could have impeded that goal. For example, a single comment Bob made in one of his posts on Fuchs Friends changed my life for the better.
There was an ongoing discussion about various top-tier cornea specialists with pros and cons being discussed. Dr. Gorovoy’s name came up, and Bob posted that if he lived near the east coast he would be Dr. Gorovoy’s patient. Understanding that Bob was perhaps the most knowledgeable and informed Fuchs patient in the world influenced me to eventually have my DSOs done by Dr. Gorovoy. They were a success and my vision is now excellent. Thanks to Bob for helping me regain my vision. Bob’s legacy will live on in the lives of the many Fuchs patients such as I whose Fuchs was successfully treated and whose lives were made better through Bob’s accomplishments.
