The FReeper Canteen is asking all FReepers to please keep 68-69TonkinGulfYachtClub in your prayers.
He has suffered a massive stroke and heart attack.
We know that many of you will have questions, but as of right now we don't have any further information.
Thank you
Sharing prayers up for our dear FRiend.
Thanks for the ping and update.
Prayers up for you Mr. Tonk
Thanks for the update, Mojo. I'm praying hard for his recovery.
Thank you for the update, Little Sister. And thanks to the chiropractor who had the sense to get Tonk to the Emergency Room quickly.
I just learned of Tonk's stroke and heart attack.
Thanks so much for keeping us updated.
Like the rest of the Freepers who have already posted here, I'm praying for Tonk, for a full and complete recovery.
I was in DaNang at the same time as TonkinGulf and my prayers are with him. Kill a Commie for Christ, Tonkin!!!

A Prayer of Healing for Mr. Tonkin:
"Almighty GOD,
...if it be Your will...
...please heal him with Your LOVE.
...If it not be Your will then...
...please heal his Fear"
AMEN
.
Prayers continuing. Thanks for the update. Keep 'em comin' if you can.
Tonk, we are praying so hard for you. God is with you - do not doubt it. You are so important to Him, and to us. You are truly a treasure, and you will overcome...
after all, you are The Mighty Tonk. FIGHT!
Thanks for the up-date. Tonk's in my prayers...
Please keep him and his family in your prayers.
Will do.
And thanks.
If you (or anyone else) gets a chance to talk to him tell him he is missed.
My husband had a stroke in 2001, caused from a bleed through in the brain. He was paralyzed on the left side and had problems finding the right words to say. He was in rehab at the hospital for a month. With determination he has overcome it and was able to drive again, although it has slowed him down a lot. He was fortunate in that his heart problems were caught early. 3 bypasses and an artificial Aortic valve done in 1993. He has had to be on Coumadin since the artificial valve and that was a factor in his bleed through in the brain.
Thanks for the update. May God be with Tonk and his family during this trying time.
Thank you for the update! I continue to Praise God and lift Tonk up for His healing, peace and blessing.
Thank you for the update. There's good news in there that he is able to communicate. Prayers continue for his full recovery.
Thank you for the good news update. A prayer that Tonk will soon be recovering and returning to his home on the web.

Good information Phil, thank you for pinging me.
Prayer sent for a good man and his family.
Oh dear...heartfelt prayers will be said 'round the clock.
