HI Jim, and all who've asked.
I talked to several people that have seen Mike today and they tell me
his condition is improving - but he will remian in ICU for a while
longer. When I called the hospital they couldn't tell me much. I do
know that he's breathing without the aid of a ventilator and that he's
talking, but not much.... I keep saying that's always how he is ;)
Anyway, I'm coming up to see him again on Saturday so I'll have a
better idea and can relay that to the meteorite community as soon I
see for myself.

Hi Ruben!
Good news he is getting better. Thanks for posting. I've been
forwarding
to FaceBook as some folks can not see this.
Please keep the good news coming! Hope all is well with you and your
family.
First think I thought of was he cut into something bad in a
meteorite.....you can never know.
All good here, just returned from Yelland Dry Lake and Tule Valley Dry
Lake
in UTAH.

Hi all,
Thanks to everyone that sent Mike an email message.
In response to questions about Mikes illness:
The doctors have treated Mike for pneumonia, and valley fever, but
they're thinking now that the cause may be meteorite related.
Mike has been cutting, sanding, etching, opticon-ing and lacquering
meteorites for nearly a decade without using any type of mask. Even If
not "THE" cause I doubt seriously it's helped the situation.
Update: Just talked to Melissa (Mike's daughter) and she said Mike has
responded somewhat favorably to the treatment. Just this afternoon he
began breathing on his own and so they removed the ventilator. While
still heavily sedated and in ICU he is trying to speak and moving
enough that they thought he was trying to break the restaints placed
on his arms and legs.
It's looking better...
Keep Praying!

Hi all,
I stopped by to see our friend Mike Miller today at the hospital
(KRMC) in Kingman, AZ.
He's completely sedated and on a breathing machine. I was told that
he's been in ICU for a few days and that doctors are somewhat baffled
as to what has happened. Something is causing fluid build up in his
lungs that is making it impossible for him to breathe unassisted. He
entered the hospital on Wednesday evening due to pains in his chest
and back but within hours had to be put on a ventilator to breathe.
Mikes daughters (Ashley, and Melissa) work for him and will be
checking his email. If you'd like to wish Mike well I'm sure he'd
appreciate it. Here is his email. meteoritefin...@gmail.com
