Guest guest Posted December 21, 2005 Report Share Posted December 21, 2005 What a terrible obituary. You can tell that that family was really pretty screwed up if thats all they can say about their son. Nothing about the struggle with CFS, nothing about his personal characteristics. You wonder how a very intelligent enthusiastic person came from a gene pool like that. Well, we can do far better. As I said I'm going to put together some stuff on including peoples thoughts on him and post it on the website. I wonder if they believe now that we was actually really sick? I wonder what regrets they have now? <rhbailey@...> wrote: L. Breckenridge December 17, 2005 L. Breckenridge, 23, of Baldwinsville, died Saturday.

Guest guest Posted December 21, 2005 Report Share Posted December 21, 2005 Obit for the National Forum Journal , National CFIDS Association , Ma L. Breckenridge, aged 23, of Baldwinsville NY, died Saturday December 17, 2005 He was born in Syracuse, he received an Associate Degree in Information Technology and Business, from and Stratton. He was survived by his parents, Wayne and Sandy Breckenridge. was an bright enthusiastic young man who sought a cure for his debilitating CFIDS which robbed him of his career and social life. He was referred to me as a patient by the National CFIDS Association and we attempted to help him. He saw us a short time before his death and he was enthused about new research in CFIDS. To us, he was discrete about his home life. The idea that CFIDS was imaginary annoyed and all of us, it was not helpful in his life, in fact it was intrusive in his progress. Those who persist in this notion should ponder 's death. I wish to dedicate the New York part of the CFIDS RNA genome research in honor of L. Breckenridge.

Guest guest Posted December 21, 2005 Report Share Posted December 21, 2005 Cort, I agree, I wrote something up and sent to Sue who in turn is getting it to the funeral home to hopefully be read tomorrow at his funeral. Feel free to post it at your site if you want. I wanted people who come to his funeral to KNOW that he was known and loved in our group and that he was sick and that we all understood that.

Guest guest Posted April 4, 2008 Report Share Posted April 4, 2008 OMG - what a terrible tragedy. My heart and thoughts go out to her family. We ask WHY when we get cancer did it happen to us, but WHY did such a terrible senseless act happen to a beautiful lady (both inner and outer)? I hope the police find the perpetrator asap and I feel for the little boy who found her, just shocking.
