Title

Death of David Wheldon.

Body

David, my husband of just over 27 years and aged 70 years, passed away on January 8th. To me, this was completely unexpected and my heart is broken.

He did have a sub arachnoid haemorrhage about eighteen months previously but seemed to have completely recovered from this. It will be two or three weeks before I find out more.

Dear Dear Sarah

I am so very sorry to hear about David. How could he go away suddenly? No age to have just left. How are you coping? All these years through MS and all David would have been your pillar of strength as he was to so many others he has helped to heal through his protocol.

So very unexpected. I am wondering if this has anything to do with after effects of Covid, which seems to have so many unexpected and serious side effects, including cardiac events.

Dear Sarah, I simply dont know what to say and I haven't been on this site for some time as I was preoccupied with a mini covid related crisis, which is now almost over. Not me but a woman helper in Sonal's household who had come back from leave and developed Covid.

Is someone with you Sarah to help you through this very difficult time? All my love.

I am 76 years old. My daughter-in-law was diagnosed with MS and we are all very keen for her to start this new antibiotic treatment. We hope to be able to do this in the next couple of weeks by finding a doctor willing to deal with any issues like reactions that may crop up. My daughter-in-law is 43 years old.

I have been an active poilitical journalist most of my life and have felt for a long time that there must be a cure out there for MS which the medical community has largely ignored. I am very excited by the Wheldon protocol.

Dearest Sarah,

David was a courageous, thoughtful and learned man. A creative writer.

David and you have profoundly touched our MS lives since 2004 and

on cpnhelp antibiotic protocol for at least 14 years.

With lasting thanks to David and all the cpnhelp contributors with their blogs.

Sending you, Sarah, love and prayers.

Always, Rica- Katman

Thankyou Rica and everyone else for your kind words. I am still in shock and the shock has temporarily taken away my ability to walk, but it will soon return because I have been exercising and testing all my muscles.

I won't know the exact reasons for David's death for a couple of weeks but he was always firm in not wanting a traditional funeral so my plan is to have a simple unattended cremation, have him placed in an English oak urn and then eventually have the ashes scattered in the farm of his favourite cousin in his beloved Somerset.

Sarah,

My deepest condolences to you. When I saw your announcement about David's passing, I was just so shocked. All CPNer's know how pivotal he was in our health stories. Obviously, none more than you. Yours and David's is a lifelong story!

Thankyou Chris, David dying was my biggest shock, having been laughing together just a few minutes before. I won6know the results of the post mortem for a week or so but when I get it, I will let everyone know.

It is so sad because he had recently had his first collection of short stories accepted by Confingo Publishing in Manchester. Luckily this was so far advanced that they are going ahead with it and publishing it in the Spring.  I hope David will somehow see it because he had been looking forward to it SO much.

Dear Sarah,

I am so sorry to hear of Dr. Wheldon's death. I am new to the protocol and have never had personal contact with him, but I feel such a close connection to him and you and everyone on this site.

With his research and continued revelations about MS and CPN, he has changed medicine by opening up other avenues for treatment and cure other than the money driven Pharma industry complex. As more of us get cured, and the word gets out, I think there will be a revolution in the medical 'industry' and Dr. Wheldon will be credited as a pioneer in this, the new age of medicine.

It must be such a loss for you personally. It sounds like you two have been through so much together. I hope you are managing ok and finding you way through this painful time. Let it be known that he, and you are surrounded by love from all corners of the globe. I hope you stay on this site and keep us all updated about what and how you are doing. Sending you much love, strength and support. <3<3<3

My sincere condolences to you Sarah. I’m so shocked at this news. He was a talented writer and a compassionate doctor. He saved your life. Such love.
I just found out today that Dr. Powell passed away last year in June.
I’m beyond sadness for the loss of them both.
Sending you a big hug with love.
