I have not followed the thread, so I may be missing something, but I 
think that Tino's answer is right. You may achieve this defining a 
getter method, something like:

def get_client_connection(self) :
   if not hasattr(self, "_v_clientConnection") :
     self._v_clientConnection = xxxxx
   return sef._v_clientConnection

if you access this attribute through the method, and never directly, 
you'll always get a "valid" client connection.
