I was very concerned and called 911. As the ambulance was taking Allen a man in a truck came and entered Allen's apartment and then came out and drove off in the Black Mercedes E500 in question and then I never saw it again. Sincer Traci Diaz 3737 east calle de carlos apt#1 palm springs ca. 92262 Mercury Insurance Company Please be advised that Thomas Allen Worthy is a close, long time friend of mine. He was hospitalized in late May thru June and was placed in a medically induced coma for nearly 2 weeks. During that time I visited Mr. Worthy's bedside several times, and at no time did Mr. Worthy ever speak. I was shocked and dismayed at his condition. We believed that he had suffered a stroke, but brain scans did not reveal that. Please assist Mr. Worthy with his medical policy as I know he is out of pocket for numerous expenses, including dental work. Mo,sL$mcerely Yours, i hilip Ward October 15, 2012 To whom it may concern, I am a longtime friend of Mr.Thomas Allen Worthy. On May 21, 2012, Mr. Worthy was involved in an automobile accident. It was immediately after this event that I noticed dramatic and shocking changes in his health-most notably, his mental state. I visited him on several occasions at Eisenhower Hospital in Rancho Mirage, California, where he had been in what I believe was a comatose state of some degree. I and my mother, Janet Robinson later visited him after he had been placed into a nursing facility in Palm Springs. During this time and even after he had returned home, his condition was quite alarming. I observed a once thriving and healthy active man as now frail, weak, unable to walk steady, and most notably, a very high level of mental confusion, memory loss and the inability to properly care for himself. While I have seen improvements in Mr. Worthy, I am still alarmed deem to me, and my family as anywhere close to being recovered from hi .
