Sad news about David Galanter

[trampledamage]

He has cancer and only has a few months left to live - he posted about it on his facebook page - I have a screenshot from @KennyB


He's the author of several Trek novels including Discovery's Dead Endless.

Oh geeze, wow, this stinks. Dave always seemed like a stand-up guy, and he wrote good books to boot! Sorry to hear this.

 

[KennyB]

I am completely speechless. Dave is a super great guy to chat with and an excellent writer. 2020 just keeps going South. I hope for a miracle and a turn around but at least I hope Dave spends the next few months surrounded by love and positive energy from his closet family and friends.

Oh No this is such sad news.I really like his books. I'm sorry to hear this news.Cancer really sucks. I feel sad for his family and friends.I'm sending my best wishes to his family and friends during this difficult time.

Good luck in your fight, Mr. Galanter.

Fuck cancer.

Indeed devastating news. Thinking of you, Dave. And thank you for some wonderful reading experiences.

Thoughts are with him and his family. I've enjoyed our interactions since the psiphi board days.

Very distressing news!!!!!

 

[Allyn Gibson]

Dave and I talked in March about his prognosis. Please don't tell him, but after that talk I sat down on my bed and cried for forty-five minutes. He's meant a lot to me, as a writer and as a friend, for over twenty years, in ways that words cannot adequately express.

There are never any words.
