Eric's oxygen SAT levels where at a very dangerously low level of 88%. Eric had been fighting an up hill battle with the flu since Dec 24th 2014. After several days in the hospital Eric was begining to gain ground with his conditions and starting to make a recovery. On Wednesday Jan 07th 2015 Eric was released from hospital care and was able to return to his home in Bristol, Virginia to continue his recovery. It was reported that Eric told his life long friend and Co-Host of the BVABC Eddie "The Yakk" Peloquin in a phone coversation, " I felt like I was close to dying. My lungs where so tired from hyperventilating that I just didn't even want to take my next breath of air. Death almost got me but you know what? Survival, it's what we do! Right?"
