I am probably the only guy here who doesn't know, so with head humbly bowed, I ask ,"What has Tom been diagnosed, with?"

Great article... smile Get well soon, 20mm!

Glad to hear that he's on the road to recovery....it's nice to see a personal piece like this about one of the valued SimHQ'ers.

Good to see him on the road to recovery.

Just curious, what is the deal with the matching HOTAS Warthog t-shirts? Product placement?


I refuse to buy a flight sim that I have no interest in playing, on the off chance that MAYBE someday they'll make the one I really want to play.

Good News indeed, thanks for the update.

Tom is an awesome guy, and I WILL get a card to him soon, apologies that I have not already done so.
Have had some dramas in my own life to get over.

Get well very soon Tom.

Best wishes,

Andrew & Sasikan Tucker.


Kindest regards,

AJ

Thank you so much for the update. It is a relief to see that Tom is in good cheer.

Tom, a card is on its way, it is quite homemade and has made it's way across the pond carried by waves of good wishes from here.

Thanks for the update Erik.

If you are reading this Tom - you are sorely missed here at SimHQ and we look forward to the day you return. Many of my best memories of SimHQ are running laps with you in rFactor and chatting with you while doing so about life, SimHQ, and all manner of other things. Best of luck on your continued recovery and know that there are literally thousands of us here at SimHQ that have been touched by your participation here over the years..

Take care...

Chris "BeachAV8R" Frishmuth

Thanks Guod for keeping us updated on Tom. Of all the things that can be deadly a renal infection i wouldn't of even thought of or the problems it can cause.

Wishing you a full recovery Tom!

Get back here ASAP, Tom. We really miss you around here!
