Tom is a VERY private person, but I think that it's OK to let you know that he has been VERY ill for several months.
I check his blog often for updates, and assume that when he's ready to come back, he will let us know.
Please respect his privacy and don't try to contact him until he is ready.
In which case I think he needs to be put on the prayer list, to help him back to good health, so that he feels fit enough to show that he is alive & kicking, as he wishes. I always enjoy his posts.
