Dear Friends,

I just chatted by phone with Allen's bf - Ken ....this Sunday afternoon - Feb 4th.

Just a short note to share with you the good news about "our friend" - Allen - The Gay Pattayan.

(Note...in this edit - I have deleted the word "dear" friend as it seems to have offended a few readers who are uncomfortable with its association with a man who has freely devoted many thousands of hours for over 8 years in support of gay Thailand and Pattaya).

Allen was released from Bangkok Pattaya Hospital Saturday afternoon Feb 3rd.

His second cranial tap surgery - which was performed on Thursday Feb 1st - was according to his Doctor - successful.
Though, according to the surgeon, it was to be only a 30 minute surgery to correct the location of the tube which is to drain water from the brain to the stomach - in fact the surgery lasted 2 hours.

He is now resting comfortably in his Pattaya Condo with bf Ken :-)

In 4 to 5 days, Allen will return to have a checkup with his doctor.

Let's do hope and pray this surgery will be Allen's last ...and that he recovers soon...

We all look forward to his better health.
