    I will be moving to Minnesota on August 1st for a couple of different reasons.

    #1...My foot, the one that was damaged by the stroke is suffering from neuropathy, and I will lose it in as little as a couple of years. Being close to what family I have, my father etc., will help. My former partner of 20 years has recently banned me from the house I use to live in due to a new male friend who seems quite threatened by my presence. I might too if I were 5'10" and weighed 350 pounds. Where I use to get some help there will be none at all so this is a positive decision. I'll be in a handicap friendly place, close to all things I need. I'll no longer have to drive which will be another positive for me.

    #2...It will give me a chance to spend some time with my father. I'm in a position to be able to do it so why not take advantage of it.

    Holy crap...what exactly is neuropathy, Tom?

    I'm glad these developments are positive ones.
    It certainly sounds as if you could do with a very clear, clean and positive break in mnay ways.

    Best of luck with the preparations!!! wave

    Good to hear you can move in so quickly. I second Martijn, it'll be a welcome change and hopefully distract you a bit from he troubles at the place now.

    Are the record companies aware of the address change. You do not want the cd's to arrive somewhere else right. wink

    Keep us updated, and god luck. smile

    Tom, all the best for his hard situation.

  1. Tom, I know it may be difficult but try to concentrate on the second point you mention above. Try and stay positive and value the extra time that you can spend with your family.

    I've no idea how extensive your neuropathy but I know that from my experiences with diabetic neuropathy (through my work) good foot care, regular check-ups, etc that monitor and identify any problems at an early stage - i.e. prevention - is best.

    Even if you do not have diabetes, local diabetic clinics should have useful literature to help people who suffer from peripheral neuropathy.

    All the best, Tom.

  2. All the best, Tom!

    I'll continue to maintain my website and write. My music is so much a part of my life I'll not let any of it go. And I'll make the manufacturers aware of what is going on. When I get closer to leaving in a few weeks I'll let all of you know. I should only be off line for a few days.

    I'll be moving in to new place on August 1st thanks to help from my father. It is a much nicer place than what I have now. In some ways it will be a big change after 37 years in San Diego.

    I wish I had the $ to fly all of you out here. I'm not complaining (really) but the energy level is really an issue with me. I've a couple of friends who'll help with the heavy lifting. My Dad and I will decide when he gets here what is going to go back in the car with us. We'll be able to share his Saturn (auto) which will really save me a lot of money. So far there have been no takers on my truck (economy I guess). Not worried about it.

    Tom, I had not heard about any of this - I am feeling a bit bad for being so poor at keeping in touch lately... I hope that it will all work out to the best for you, which I am sure it will.

    Best of luck to you and we'll talk more later.
