Sad News about Crohn's Dad

Some terribly sad news about Alan Schachter was posted on the Books and Multimedia Forum but I thought I would post it here too as I know many of us parents have had contact with Alan.

Because of some posts that Alan made a couple of weeks ago I have begun looking at SCD and the paleo diet. Thanks Alan for your generous sharing of knowledge. My heart goes out to the Schachter family.
 
Oddly I had never really considered the Paleo diet, but I saw someone post about his death a couple days ago and started reading up on his blog and am now intrigued. So, in a small way, his loss may have an impact in my life. I guess that seems odd. Regardless it seems as if he was a great man and helpful to so many, especially his daughter. So very sad.

Oh my goodness. This is so very sad, what a difficult and heartbreaking time for his loved ones and friends. His passion, drive, knowledge and questioning and enquiring mind will be sorely in the IBD community. :(

RIP Alan and my sincere condolences to his family.

Dusty.
