I recently learned of the good Doctor's death. I've read one of his books and agree with him about water.

When going to the watercure site to report my remarkable recovery process from several serious ailments, I was shocked to discover the passing of this beloved, valiant and selfless soul, the great healer. I have to console myself in knowing that his spirit is now surrounding us and guiding us, released from the confines of this world that he knew on so many levels. I feel in mourning as if a great teacher and true brother has left us to find our way alone. I am struck with a deeper understand of the importance of dedication and why we must shine out as a beacon to guide mankind in the right way. The right way!

I am very sad to learn of Dr. B's death. I was looking forward to meeting him in person after reading his book " Your Body's Many Cries for Water" some years ago. I have been following his work for some time and his death is such a loss for humankind. His work has been a great influence to us and he has served as our inspiration. His work been of immense help to my clients, my family and myself here at our natural health & wellness center in Quezon City, Philippines. We are forever grateful for his life-saving work! My family and I sincerely sends our condolences. We shall masses said for his soul and include him in our prayers. May God bless and keep his soul.

Three years ago, I knew nothing of Dr. Batmanghelidj, but he has made a lasting impression on my life, my health, and my mind, and probably will on the minds of many I have yet to come in contact with in the future. A finer example of a true humanitarian cannot easily be found. My condolences to the family and friends of "Dr. B". Please do continue to spread his legacy -- his excellent work. We will feel his loss for some time to come, but what a difference he made! We should all be so fortunate in our lives.

Dr. Fereydoon Batmanghelidj and my dad even before I was born knew each other. According to my mother, he arranged for all my shots and baby formulas free of charge. He was my pediatrician. I would like on behalf of my dad (Hooshang), my mother (Maryam) and my wife to say how sorry we are to find out that this generous man has left us so soon. May god bless him and may he rest in peace. And to the rest of the family specially his eldest brother Hooshang: we love you, be strong.

Dr. B was a gentleman in the fine, old tradition. He had a heart of gold and a desire to help his fellow man. He has been a good friend to our family for 12 years and his presence will remain with us forever.
