That meeting, motivated by what happened to sawyer last November, when a rough airport patdown ruptured his urostomy bag.
Tom Sawyer: "Off came the urostomy bag and urine."
An embarrassing moment that quickly gained national attention, motivating Sawyer to work with the TSA to make sure other travelers with medical conditions were treated with more dignity.
Tom Sawyer: "I was under the assumption that this would be an ongoing dialogue."
But after months with no further discussion, nor plans to reconvene, Sawyer feels let down and now questions the TS's intentions from the start.
Tom Sawyer: "I wonder, was this a dog and pony show? Was this just done to try and ameliorate what was done wrong, or are they really serious and just haven't had time to bring the consortium back together yet?"
Questions Sawyer would one day like to have answered by the TSA.
Tom Sawyer: "I really hope that they bring us back together again, because I just think there's so much more to talk about and I think we, we could help them."
Sawyer says he plans to continue to follow up with TSA officials until he gets answers. 6 News tried to contact the TSA but our calls weren't returned.
