What terrible news. Just saw it today. When I was in the hospital Walter sent me a get well e-mail, along with many, many others on this list.
We must pray for his recovery, and for the strength of all those that are caring for him. Send him e-mails to the hospital where he is. Those e-mails are an inspiration for one to recover. I know, I was there at edge of life. Recover, Walter... Steve Schoner IMCA 4470 P.S. Could someone post on the list the e-mail of the hospital that he is at so that we can wish him the best. To get those e-mails are a blessing. [meteorite-list] Walter Branch Walter Branch Fri, 02 Feb 2007 04:00:14 -0800 Hello, I am Walter Branch's wife, Sabrina. On Friday, Walter and our daughter were in an accident. Walter is in critical condition in Trauma ICU. He has numerous internal injuries including 5 broken ribs, a punctured lung, a bruised lung, a ruptured diaphragm (repaired Friday night), his kidneys are not functioning as they should, his spleen was removed, and he had a compound fracture of the right femur. He is under heavy sedation due to agitation, but when they back off the sedation, he is alert and in a great deal of pain. He is on minimum life support at the moment. When I saw him yesterday, I asked him if I should let all of you know and he nodded yes. Please keep us in your prayers. Our daughter is home from the hospital with a concussion, whip lash, and a fractured pelvis. If Walter had an on-going transaction with you, please be patient. As soon as he is able to tell me what to do, I will try to do what I can. Sincerely, Sabrina Branch ________________________ ______________________________________________ Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
