Title: Eric Otero... RIP
Post by: jmt1 on May 15, 2006, 07:38:06 PM
just read this over at the mm board...

Eric Otero - RIP
Just got a call not too long ago confirming Eric Otero, IFBB Pro, was found dead in his bedroom.

That's all I can say for the moment.

Eric turned Pro in 2001 at the NPC Nationals. Eric Otero was one of the most impressive of the show. The judges couldn't get that one wrong. He was a complete package from all angles with almost no room for improvement. Eric was capable in planning his workouts and his diet. At the show that year, he peaked at the right minute on the right day.

Eric was a master at timing competition preparation.

Eric was 32 years old when he turned pro.

Rest in Peace

I know that alot of people have used the "advil" excuse, but I have a friend who is not even a bodybuilder that went to the hospital feeling dizzy, and found that he had bleeding ulcers..he is just a normal corporate guy who was working for worldcom when they went under, and was stressed out real bad and having headaches. He was eating ibuprofin like 4 at a time 3 or 4 times a day, so even though you hear people blaming other things on Advil...you still need to be careful about how much of that stuff you take.

Any details would be greatly appreciated.  I trained with Eric the past couple of years, on and off, at One to One in Houston.  He recently moved out here to San Antonio, but I had not been able to get in touch with him.
Eric was a great guy who got after it in the gym.  Very strong for his size.  He will be missed.

Have spoken with a few folks in the know.  Apparently, it wasn't rec drugs.  He had a bad reaction to a root canal (or some sort of dental work), or the antibiotics he received.  Also found out that he and his wife had jsut found out they were expecting a child.  Keep his family in your prayers.

Good point. If the bodybuilders simply said no, no , no to the extreme measures some use and had a more balanced lifestyle perhaps  we would not see a growing number of our champs RIP.

This was not an overdose.  Apparently, whatever was used to cap th e tooth, or seal it (whatever..I'm no dentist) came loose, and caused an infection.  Maybe mercury poisoning, or something like that. The autopsy is expected today or tomorrow, from what I understand.

Nothing against this person at all, but basically...drugs in general are a severe waste of time.  And when someone OD's, you have families and friends left behind to morn for years and years, just because you wanted to get high.  It's a poor lifestyle.

I totally agree.. if it was a drug OD or drug related, i have a hard time feeling bad for this person... yeah.. sucks for his family, friends etc... but....

also, a tooth infection? give me a fucking break... typically when you have a serious infection, u become swollen and in a ton of pain... a normal person goes and gets it taken care of before it even gets to that stage and doesnt just die over night lol give me a break... who is doing the autopsy? Tom "Its not from nubain" Prince?
Title: Re: Eric Otero... RIP
Post by: gh15 on May 17, 2006, 04:01:37 PM
its drugs only drugs and nothing but...DRUGS. tooth infection :D im going with 2 huge holes in my teeth one of them is already 8 years old and it is deep TO THE FUCKIN GUM and it is not disturbing me...some pain sometime in the morning but thats about it. pow in vietman didnt brush their teeth for 4-5 years and nothing happen to them.

IT IS DRUGS A COMBO OF DRUGS THAT THE BODY COULDNT TAKE NO MORE. ANYTHING THE AUTOPSY BRINGS OUT WAS CAUSED AS A RESULT OF DRUGS WETHER ITS HORMONES/PAIN KILLERS/NARCOTICS OR AS I SUSPECT SOME OF EACH.

STOP BULLSHITING THE KIDS WHO READ THIS BOARD!!!!! THERE ARE TONS OF THEM.

The comment " maybe it was advil" was meant to be amusing: Tom Prince stated/ wrote that ADVIL was the prime cause of all of his troubles, completely ignoring the elephant in the living room ( squid at kitchen table ) this is STEROIDS/Nubain/Rec drugs and whatever else goes along with being the hardcare professional ( or wannabe ) bodybuilder. 

and yes, ADvil and aspirin certainly do kill many 1000's of people per year.

Whe I said mercury poisoning, I was just throwing something out.  From what I understadn, there was some sort of infection (I have no idea what it was) that worsened, because Eric just tried to tough it out.  By the time he went to get help for it, it was too late.  At least that is what I've been told.

from erics brother...



To Whom it May Concern;

I am not a member of your site, but Eric Otero is my brother. My family and I just returned from San Antonio where he was buried with full military honors at Ft. Sam in San Antonio. I would just like to say that we are all still in disbelieve over this. No words can express how we feel right now.

My brother's obituary and guestbook for his wife can be seen and signed by all that loved him at www.missioparks.com under the obituary section - you will have to type in Otero in the appropriate spot. I know that I speak for the entire family when I say that it brings comfort to see all of the kind words and memories of my brother.

I don't know where you will post this since I am not a member - but I read the posts about my brother and felt I should respond somehow - I know that not everyone that knew Eric were notified - or they would have been there with the rest of the bodybuilders who were there.

My sincerest thanks for the kind words of support,

Marcella

Just in case the obit goes away before this thread should.  Here is copy of it from the link:

*****************
Eric Joshua Otero, born February 23, 1969, went home to be with the Lord May 15, 2006. Eric was born in Albuquerque, New Mexico. He married Amanda Guzman Otero on October 28, 1999. Eric was a professional body builder, winning the title of Mr. USA in 1999. After 14 years of competing at the national level, he turned pro and became a member of the International Federation of Body Builders (IFBB). Eric also served his country in the United States Army from 1989 to 1993. On February 28, 2006 Eric was born-again. His deep love and enthusiasm for the Lord was contagious. Eric never stopped sharing Jesus with friends and strangers alike and led many to the saving knowledge of the Lord. Eric’s life was proof that life is not measured in time, but in purpose and in lives changed as a result of having lived. Eric is survived by his loving wife Amanda; his mother, Melvina Otero of Sugarland; a brother, David Brazas and wife Deborah of Albuquerque, NM, sister Marcella Cheshier of Tomball ;two nieces, Melissa Fruia and Katie Cheshier and many friends and loved ones.

There were a couple of posts that mentioned rec dru use.  Speaking from personal experience, nobdy CHOOSES to have an addiction. Do you think that people that have addictions want to use and want to ruin their lives or their family's lives?  No!!!!  If you have never had to deal with that demon, you will not understand, but its not fun.  Some people can overcome it, some can't.  In NA when they tell you that the only thing that will come from drug use are jails, institutions or death, they are not joking.  But every addict does not think it will happen to them.  I have been in places and situations that no person should be in.  I have been around dirt bag people that don't give a shit about anyone.  I could have easily been shot or stabbed and left for dead many times, but through the grace of God i'm still here.  But I feel I have a handle on my "issues" and i'm doing pretty well.  Am I perfect?  No, but whenever I see that a BBer has died or is having issues with recs, I understand.  BBer's are just like everybody else and have problems.  The people you see at shows and in the mags deal with the same shit everybody else does. There are family issues, money problems etc...

Thank you for the truth.  I have been clean for two plus years - and I would have done anything to help my brother.  ANYTHING.  Now there is nothing anyone can do to bring him back.

Sorry for your loss. If it was rec drugs that killed him then he was a junkie who happened to also be a bodybuilder. I think you need to realize one has nothing to do with the other.

I really don't understand how you can have a tooth infection and not be on antibiotics.  You would be in a great deal of pain; and wouldn't you go to the hospital if you got a fever after a root canal?  It is very rare for someone to just drop dead from a tooth infection.

This is in response to the many speculative messages I have read.  I am Eric's Mom and have been in close contact with the Medical Examiner.  First of all, it takes 12 weeks to get the autopsy report in San Antonio and no one gave me a clear reason for the time frame but this is a fact.  Secondly, an infection in a tooth can go to the lining of the heart and cause death.  It doesn't always happen, but it can.  I personally have a heart condition that requires pre-medication before my teeth are even cleaned and this is not an especially rare condition-another fact.   Those of you that seem to have some time on your hands can make a couple of phone calls to the ME, a good dentist or even do some research on the internet and confirm these facts.   Amanda was 7 weeks pregnant but miscarried - another fact.  I was able to go to most of Eric's competitions and met many many of his bodybuilder friends and acquaintances.  I am sure most of you are really great people but perhaps a little more compassion and less judgment (particularly when you don't have all the facts) at this point in time would be something a really big person would do.  Our family has lost a significant member and, as a mother, my heart has a hole bigger than Texas. Eric left a big brother, David,  and sister-in-law, Debbie, a very special niece that any of you who truly knew Eric would know about and that is Melissa; another niece, Katie, and a sister, Marcella.  We are all trying to accept and deal with this pain.  Please put yourselves in our place for a moment and try to focus on the good things you truly knew about my son. Some of you didn't even know him and yet you make statements as though you did.   Maybe you could leave speculation and unkind comments for something else and some other time.  Some of you sound like honest smart people and others come across as nothing more than know it all smart asses.  I am not naiive and I understand the steroids and other drugs that play a part in the bodybuilding world.  But don't you think that discussion could be in general terms without needlessly smearing my son's memory?  Maybe it would be constructive if all of you that know so much tried to do something to clean up the world of bodybuilding?   Eric was a very positive person and I know that he would think trash talk was a big waste of time.   If you really knew Eric, please remember the positive things about him and if you didn't know him, perhaps you need to keep your mouth shut and find another outlet for your negative thoughts.

Thanks for listening.  If anyone has sincere questions or comments, please let me know.  I'll be happy to provide factual information.

This is tough to hear, especially since I learned that his wife was 7 months pregnant. Eric was starting a family, and at that stage, preparing the room, the hospital stay, and much more. I hope she has family and friends that will stand with her on this devastating tragedy.

Yea, and the fact is that Getbig was overall cool in discussing him.  His family may think that we are disrespecting him for talking about him using steroids but fuck, that's what he used and if they had issue with it then they should have discussed it with him.  They obviously would have known that he was using steroids, lets be serious and if they don't think steroids had anything to do with his death then they may want to do some research first.

Eric Otero died from a tooth infection that ran to his heart.  It is very rare to the point where the one major thing that would contribute to having it is a compromised immune system.  That can occur from two things....AIDS and steroid use.  When you inject yourself repeatedly over the years, you have a tendancy to get absesses especially when its done in the buttocks which can result in developing a viral enteritis.  Its not a major issue but it does weaken the immune system over the years. 

If Eric's autopsy report was published, we would really know.  I thought 5 years ago that his mom was not telling the whole truth and left out a lot of details.  We'll never know and honestly no one should care.  He's been dead fro 5 years so let sleeping dogs lie.

 what the hell.. my father was a oral surgeon.. to say that teeth can not get infected easily to the point of being sepsis.. to say that steroids were the cause because of a weakened immune system is not wholly factual..  he saw this quite often and hospital stays because of infected teeth was not unheard of.. so did eric take gear ? yes of course.. but to say that gear would weaken the immune system to the point of essentially killing him from the tooth infection is a bit of a stretch.. this happens to people more often than you think and the vast majority are not on gear.. ::)

Tooth infections can lead to sepsis which untreated (and sometimes even when they are treated) can cause death.

Charlie Sheen reportedly won't go to a dentist because he believes that they are "aiding" in killing people. I've seen on some conspiracy sites were some believe dentist are purposely infecting people(mostly lower/med income people)with strange shit. And then there's the whole fluoride conspiracy.

Death of a loved one is never easy - and it doesn't get better, it just gets different. I saw that my daughter posted a message, and it made me sad, but happy that she made a comment just the same. She was not allowed to go to the funeral because she was too young. I know how much she loved Eric, her Uncle - and I cannot STAND to see the fowl language that was directed her way when she posted her comment on here. You people need to remember that even though the "bodybuilder" may be dead to you, he is STILL family to US, and we pray for all of you that no one in YOUR family has to sit and read that kind of crap after any of your tragic losses!  Grow up, have respect for yourself, and keep your mouth shut if you have nothing nice to say. Go to the gym, or find something positive to do for someone else - that is what Eric would have done. Sad day when grown ups act like adolescent kids with fowl mouths, and no friggin thought process!

You post reminds of another bodybuilder who passed away some time ago; his family members combed through message boards online only to learn that their son was an escort who sold himself to male fans!  Needless to say they were shocked and devastated!  Did they need to know that?  Is that the lasting memory they wanted to have of their son?  Remember, curiosity killed the cat.:-[

As many of us (now) know, beyond the glossy magazines, bodybuilding is an ugly sport.  There is often an extreme lifestyle behind that extreme physique and most families are better off not knowing the details.  Why go there?

Holding on to memories and photos makes a lot of sense, but digging for details does not.  Come to think of it, I can recall at least two other episodes of family members trolling internet sites only to be upset by what they learned: junior was on drugs, junior was a male prostitute, junior owed people money, etc.  What exactly are these trolling family members expecting to find?  That junior was secretly a Nobel Prize winner or stealthily writing the Ninth Symphony?  Grieving families should grieve in private.  If one looks for trouble, chances are you will find it. :-[

As many of us (now) know, beyond the glossy magazines, bodybuilding is an ugly sport.  There is often an extreme lifestyle behind that extreme physique and most families are better off not knowing the details.  Why go there?

Holding on to memories and photos makes a lot of sense, but digging for details does not.  Come to think of it, I can recall at least two other episodes of family members trolling internet sites only to be upset by what they learned: junior was on drugs, junior was an male prostitute, junior owed people money, etc.  What exactly are these trolling family members expecting to find?  That junior was secretly a Nobel Prize winner or stealthily writing the Ninth Symphony?  Grieving families should grieve in private.  If one looks for trouble, chances are you will find it. :-[

I don't know if anyone even comes on here anymore but this is Katie once again, not so young and naive. Shame on every fucking one of you. "Is this a prank?" "family shouldn't go looking for details" "this sport is this and that" BLAH BLAH BLAH. I was 11 fucking years old the first time i stumbled upon this website. Google Eric Otero and this thread pops up. I wanted to see what his "friends" had to say about him. I am now 18 years old and yes it has been over 12 years since his passing. I wasn't privileged enough to get to know him as well as the rest of my family, being that I was very young when he passed. I'm not saying anyone is a saint but the fact that you people think you even get to have an opinion on what OUR FAMILY should and should not know or that we should look him up? FUCK YOU. Here I am, 7 years later, looking him up again seeing how disgusting those of you are to talk to a child like that ESPECIALLY Eric's niece. If you didn't my uncle you never should've posted on this thread. If you didn't know him well enough to know he would've ever tolerated disrespect towards his family, neither should you. Nothing bout this is a prank or a joke. I pray that those of you who have kids and nieces never have to be disrespected the way I was at 11 years old by my uncle's self proclaimed "friends." I pray he is resting peacefully and thank God he didn't have to spend another day associating with disrespectful, low life scum like some of the people on this thread.

And just a PSA that picture is not my mother. But you would know that if you all knew him as well as you pretended to.

I don't consider looking up my uncle as an 11 year old trolling, but thanks so much for your half witted opinions. I can't wait for your children or you children's children to look you up trying to learn more about you and to see what a fucking prick you actually are. Or even better have a grown man tell them they shouldn't be looking you up as if they don't have the right. Still have the same prospective or does your family not have a right to want to remember you or learn more about you?

Last time I checked this thread was titled "Eric Otero..RIP" not "let's all trash Eric's memory." Keep whatever its is you're "withholding" to yourself. All I did was respond to people's unsolicited comments. Don't know who pissed in your cheerios or why you ego is so big you think you "allow" how I feel about a family member. No one is perfect.

I can honor his memory if you would like by covering myself with body glitter and a miniskirt and have myself photographed in a hotel jacking off for drug money to win my IFBB pro card.
