  1. Dylan Louis ( https://www.dylanlouis.com/ ) in Vancouver, BC use to provide shower or bath. At on time his website read:

     

    "After your massage you remain on the table for a few minutes while i run a hot bubble bath for you. I will call you in when its ready and put you in the tub. I use a loofa and soap to sponge and rinse any residual oil off your body. Then, an exfoliate scrub for your face. Followed by a wash and rinse of your hair after a scalp massage. Foot scrub and brushing. Final standing rinse and drying- with the option for some talc on your bottom"

     

    Not sure if he still provides the service. His review can be seen here: http://daddysreviews.com/venue/canada/bc

  2. Did you ever call ? ;-)

     

    Haha! No I did not, unfortunately we don't live close. But rest assured once this pandemic thing is under control and should we ever be in the same neighbourhood I'll call for sure!:)

  3. Am I the only one who thinks he looks good now?

     

    Just to clarify my earlier comment, I don't think he looks bad at all and according to those who have met him he's very good at what he does! I was just thinking it was good of him to post current pics:)

  4. I know some of you are curious as to what is going on in the world, the numbers, the policies, the what ifs, the should have beens. I just want to give you an idea of what goes on down where the results of those decisions which have been made come home to roost. So I will be posting a brief update on what is going on here based on truth but changed enough so as to not have any patients identifiable. .

    At midnight last night, after I had written my patient notes for the day and before heading to bed, I got on line to check how my patients were doing so the number of surprises are minimal for the next morning. Just as I signed on, I notice one of my patients, a 51 year old man who had had Covid for 10 days and was at home and then started doing worse and had been admitted to the hospital 2 days ago, was reported as having a respiratory rate of 30. He was not oxygenating well and they had increased the oxygen and then changed from a nasal oxygen supplying cannula to a face mask. I called the hospital and spoke to the nurse caring for the patient. She had called the resident who was on call but he was in the room next door intubating a patient who was being sent to the ICU and being placed on a ventilator. She told me the patient, despite the numbers, looked significantly better than he had an hour ago. 6 hours early, when I left the hospital, he looked very well and when I spoke to him and then his wife by phone, I mentioned that he was doing better and a discharge to home might happen in the next few days. Suddenly, at 11:30 everything became worse. He still said he was well but clearly he was not. I asked the nurse to have the resident call me after the resident was done with his other patient. I scanned the other patient's charts and except for the elderly lady I spoke of in the beginning of this post, they all were fairly stable. The older woman was requiring more oxygen and was now a bit agitated whereas during the day she had been calm, sleeping, not easily roused. This kind of change in behavior is common in patients with dementia who are hospitalized or have a dramatic change in their environs. When I called her nurse, I was told the patient was just settling down and had shown some improvement.

    After an hour or so, the resident had not called and so I called back and spoke with him. The patient had responded well to the additional oxygen. His breathing rate had dropped from 35 to 20 and he was oxygenating well on the higher concentration of oxygen, The patient did not feel short of breath but when he was treated, he admitted to feeling more relaxed. The resident went off to work and I went to bed. It was about 3AM.

    At 7 AM I got out of bed and felt a bit warm and took my temperature as is that is now part of my morning routine. Wake up, hit the snooze alarm for another 5 minutes and then lay there as I take my temperature, listen to the news and generally see if body parts are working. Then I get up and into the shower. My temp was 99.3, Not a fever but higher than I usually have. I showered and as the water ran over me, I could not shake the temperature reading. I took it again. 99.5. Probably went up as a result of the how water in the shower. The phone rang and it was the morning check by the team leader. She told me that one of the local hospitals had closed to admissions and that we would be taking their overflow. I told her about my temperature and she quizzed me about my health, advised me to take it again and instructed me to stay home if I felt at all ill. I continued getting dressed. I told her I would drive over and if I felt unwell or the temperature was higher, I would go home.

    I arrived, I sat in the parking lot taking my temperature and contemplating that perhaps I had contracted the disease. It is a thought all the care provides I have spoke with about this have several times a day. Standing on an elevator, at a stoplight, any second that you are not otherwise distracted that thought can jump up at you. I suppose many people get that thought.

    The temp was down to 98.6 and I headed in. My first stop was the man who had had a bad turn the night before. He had improved before I went to bed but he was having some difficulty this morning. I was helpful on with my gown by the spotter that ensures that each person gowning up to see a patient is properly prepared. The patient had gone from droplet precaution which is basically a six feet away and basic protective apparel including a mask and gloves and gown, to aerosol protection because of the high rate of oxygen which aerosolizes the virus and gives it a wider spread in the room. So now it was gown, gloves,N95 masks, already in short supply at the hospital, I was reusing one I had cleaned and placed out in the sunlight. Sunlight may help kill the virus on surfaces and I had not worn the mask for a long enough time that it was probably safe to wear. Then a surgical mask, a plastic face shield and a quick entrance into the room. He greeted me with a smile but it was clear he was breathing more rapidly. After a greeting you might give a frequently seen acquaintance you meet on an elevator, we got down to the hard conversation. Things were not looking good. His oxygenation was poor. His respiratory rate was fast. His screening tests for activity of inflammation in the body were all going up after a few days of a plateau. I explained to him what this meant and then broached

    the subject of a ventilator. I explained to him that it was likely he was going to need to be placed on a ventilator. We would try to do everything to prevent or postpone that, but we needed to be sure that this is what he wanted. I told him there was no guarantee even with the ventilator that things would turn around. He half asked half implored why this was happening to him. I had no good answer so I gave him the answer that I had, which was that I did not know why some people do worse than others with this virus. I did not have the answer to the question as to why he had been doing well and then suddenly was not. I did not have the answer to how long he might be on a respirator if he needed one but I did tell him it would more likely be weeks rather than days. As to what he could do, all I could offer is that he lie prone, chest and abdomen down, as that seemed to aid in this situation. It is called proning. He had tried it before and could not tolerate it. I encourage him to do the best he could and that half the day each day that way may make a difference. He asked why he could not eat or drink and I told him that if a tube was needed we did not want him vomiting as they put it in. He asked me to call his wife. I asked him how much of the details he wanted me to share with her. He said he wanted me to tell her everything, He then said: "I don't want to die". I am tearing up now as I type that but at that time, I needed not to show the desperation I felt for him. I offered him: "We will do our best to send you home to your wife" We will watch you closely. Lie prone. I will see you later". He thanked me as I left. He was sincere and I know I did all that I could, but I definitely did not feel that I was deserving of thanks. But if he had thanked me only to make me feel better, he had succeeded.

    The next time I saw him, four hours later he was sedated, in the ICU and on a ventilator. He was prone. In the interim, I called his wife who had clearly been hitting the computer sites hard. I answered her questions, sometimes the same one twice or three times and then finally went on to the next patient.

    The next patient was the elderly lady who had been looking worse last night and did indeed look worse this morning. I will likely report on her tomorrow if there is interest in this kind of posting. IF not, I will not burden you guys with all of this if I get the sense that this is not of interest, but I think it was important that you at least get a sense of the minute to minute horror of this.

    I did report that I am doing better today. I am doing better. My temperature never went up to over 99 again and I am home now The onslaught from the closed hospital was not very severe today and up until now, no one under my care died today. That pretty much is the best day I could have. I am going to be finishing up my notes, doing a quick computer check on the patients and then try to get some rest.

     

    Your patients are truly fortunate to have someone as caring and conscientious as you; they may not always be able to tell you that but I think you know they would if they could. God bless and stay safe.

  5. I actually had to cancel an upcoming session this week with 2 providers. Was planning to visit Western Canada for a few days, mainly to see these 2 guys. Very frustrating to cancel my trip and session.

     

    Curious … who were the two lucky guys you were planning to see?

     

    What difference does it make who were the "two lucky guys?" What more important for all: being sexually satisfied or perhaps refraining from play in order NOT to obtaining a virus through "play?"

     

    I understood @DMICS to be cancelling and not hiring. I don't plan hiring in the forseeable future, in fact I've been self-isolating for 14 days. However I probably will hire sometime in the future and it's always interesting to see what other's tastes are. I'm sorry @Axiom2001 misunderstood my intent.

  7. This is his reply just now

     

    I’ve been thru this with guys like you. You panic and get emotional. Luckily I don’t hold grudges and am professional. You’ll come back apologizing wanting to see me after you’ve calmed down. I’m not stealing. Stealing would be not taking your phone calls or sending you pics or disregarding the deposit toward the session. Completely iGnoring you. Answering your personal questions of me. Take a minute watch my videos. Jerk off. You’ll feel better.

     

    Sorry to hear this happened to you. I'd be inclined to respond … "Jerk off? … Jerk! F*ck off! … Now I feel better :) …"

  8. I'd reply as I do with anyone who sends me an email.

     

    I'd be professional and direct in that I don't offer RMT services, that I'm an escort and what my current rates-for-time were.

     

    That leaves the ball in his court. Easy, clean and concise.

     

    As a client I appreciate a response like this; honest and straightforward. I've often been told how skilled a masseur a guy is after asking him for "an excellent massage with some fun after". As enjoyable as the "fun after" may be I always feel a little cheated when their massage skills amount to little more than a rub and tug:confused:

  9. I always preferred to email a potential provider first before texting

    So now I am even more hesitant about considering anyone new

     

    Me as well. I just tried it and it seemed to work. I was already signed up as a free user and was using the email system. When I clicked on messenger link it connected me to a chat-like messenger box. Not sure what the consequences will be but was able to chat/email back on forth with the provider even tho he wasn't online at the time. He was even able to send pics via messenger.

  10. No reviews, and big attitude. Asked if he'd send a verification selfie, he replied "Don't you play games with me bro."

    He's relatively new to RM, pics seem too good to be true, no reviews and, most importantly, even if the pics are real he has big attitude. I'm guessing your gut says move on ... Go with your gut.

  11. How does one get in contact with Tyson or Scruff? Both have the phone option disabled on RM. And I'm not comfortable with the new RM messenger.

     

    When I chatted with them you could still contact them using RM email and not messenger

  12. I recommend Artur Vesely (whose website name is Ashton Labruce) https://rentmen.eu/ArturVesely; http://ashtonlabruce.com/ He’s based in Calgary but visiting in Edmonton at the moment. He's a talented, nice guy who knows how to use a lovely tool. I reviewed him in Daddy’s Reviews.

     

    Once again I concur with @StLouisOct . ArturVesely provides a great experience and he's versatile. Never met Tyson or ScruffMuscle but both seemed nice when I tried to set something up

  13. I got that. Perhaps I misunderstood you're earlier post. When you said "but when I asked" I read that to mean you expected, before contacting him, that he'd travel to your location on his own and that you only found out he expected you to cover travel costs after you contacted him. That's why I asked what I did. Sorry if I've caused any confusion.

     

    For a while it looked like he was travelling to various locales on his own dime. I tried to book him in a city his ad said he'd be in. Found out that he was testing the waters in different cities with, I gather, the hope that someone would pay for his travel. Quoted me 1200/day plus pay for his travel costs or 1500 and he pays his own way.

  14. Did you take his ad to mean he was willing to travel on his own dime?

     

    No. He did respond and provided me with two rates, both took into consideration airfare.

  15. Deposits aren’t uncommon and the client is usually the initiator. I think asking someone for a deposit for a brief meeting is ambitious, or a scam. The only time deposits should be discussed is when things like a booking for a weekend away are being negotiated between a client and a provider.

    I had a hot young man for an overnight this past week and he asked for a $100 deposit. Given how responsive he was and the fact that I was staying in a somewhat remote area at the time, I felt it was reasonable. He took a Bolt (very cheap) and a bus and a ferry and arrived exactly on time. The few times I’ve acquiesced, it’s always turned out well. As for the provider in question, absolutely not. Not only is he not my type, but for a shorter meet he doesn’t pass my scam test.

     

    True enough. I agree a deposit or some payment before meeting may be in order if you're looking for longer than a couple of hours. In the one case I had a provider come to me I offered to and sent money for air fare; things worked out fine. I like to think if you're comfortable enough meeting someone for an extended period of time, you've done some research and have had enough communication so that sending money ahead of time would be a reasonable expectation.
