Guest tomcal Posted September 29, 2015 Posted September 29, 2015 Lurker messaged me today and I was shocked. We first met at a "Hooboy dinner" in Weho at Numbers in 2002 and have been friends ever since.I just saw Townie three weeks ago before I left for Brazil, we were down in Long Beach for a BBQ festival. He's a great guy and is in my thoughts today. I will check on him tomorrow at the hospital, and hopefully we will have good news! Quote

Guest tomcal Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 I spoke to Townie tonight, he is feeling a little better, it is serious but there is some potential positive things happening. Quote
Members boiworship Posted September 30, 2015 Members Posted September 30, 2015 I spoke to Townie tonight, he is feeling a little better, it is serious but there is some potential positive things happening. That's very encouraging. I lived in SoCal for many years but never made it to any gatherings. My loss. OneFinger 1 Quote

Guest tomcal Posted October 3, 2015 Posted October 3, 2015 I spoke to Townie today, and while "not out of the woods", there is cautious optimism that he will get back to good health. Quote
Members JKane Posted October 3, 2015 Members Posted October 3, 2015 I also wish to send my best wishes to Townie (or BGP as I still think of him), hope he's better soon and we can all do another WeHo dinner sometime soon! I've been dealing with a family medical emergency myself though and am likely to be out of town for the the next several weeks, but hopefully we all come out on the other side! lookin 1 Quote
Members Popular Post TownsendPLocke Posted October 18, 2015 Members Popular Post Posted October 18, 2015 I thank all of you for your kindness and good wishes. I have been very bad about attending to my health needs and I have now paid a serious price. I have suspected for years that I was probably diabetic but did nothing about it till I almost died a month ago because of a MERSA infection and complications from my Diabetes. I have now been in Hospital for over a month. Part of my foot has been removed. I will have to be super vigilante about my diet and my health for the rest of my life. I will also be dealing with bills and financial hardship for some time. Not fun but at least I am alive. MsAnn, JKane, Theolover and 2 others 5 Quote

Guest lurkerspeaks Posted October 18, 2015 Posted October 18, 2015 I am glad to see you posting here again, Townie. I didn't want to say too much about your situation without your permission. I figured when you were ready, we would see you here again. I can't wait until you get back on your feet (no pun intended) and hope you will be able to make it here to Phoenix for our Pride event next April. Quote
Members BigK Posted October 19, 2015 Members Posted October 19, 2015 Sad to hear about your problems Townie. Take good care of yourself and get well soon. Quote
