I feel it may be helpful and respectful if a record page was kept on the forum of all pilgrims that have passed away on the Camino,s. So that we can remember past friends and share condolenses to family and friends on anniversaries. A date and location of these pilgrims dimise would also be helpful when we pass the spot they can be remembered.
 
The focus is on reducing the risk of failure through being well prepared. 2nd ed.

Check the date nice thought some time ago, I also mentioned that a record could be kept of accidents so that they could be colated and advise pilgrims of common incidents,locations,and possible precautions just a thought.??

The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.
I (American woman) was walking the Camino Francis September and came across Roger Chillcott from UK & his walking partner he met on the Camino "Bill"----- from USA CA. Roger died of a apparent heart attack in Leon 9/23/2015 in the Hotel Paris, Leon. I was surprised by the little help (emotionally) I received from anyone connected with the Camino....no help to be found. We did go to the Police and they never even asked for our names and info. After spending a week with these guys I was in shock. I left "Bill" afterwards although he had been traveling with Roger for a week or so before I met up with them. I went on alone by bus, confused and mourningto the last kilometers where I could get my Compestella. Excuse the spelling.
 
@NewLife2015 I am so very sad that you had this bad experience and without any support. If you had contacted us on the forum we could have put you in touch with local members who live close by. I assume you are now home and hope you have found sympathetic friends with whom you can debrief.
