The Fuchs’ Friends community lost it’s guiding light when Bob was taken Home. He worked tirelessly to inform, research, encourage and provide hope for those of us scared and overwhelmed when learning we had this disease with the strange name. My mom was diagnosed at 90 and told by her ophthalmologist to go home and use the hair dryer on her eye! Unsure of where to turn, I searched the internet and found the names of two people who had transplants at UTSW in Dallas. I talked to them, got the name of their doctor and mom had a total replacement by Dr. Wayne Bowman at age 91. That was 22 years ago. Bob and the support people on this site were my life-line for her and for me in my two transplants.
My deepest sympathy to you Monica and your family in the loss of a great man who devoted himself to helping others. I know the Lord greeted him with “Well done, my good and faithful servant.” May you find peace and comfort from those in this FF community knowing how much your husband meant to us.
