Hi Chris and List, I heard from Walt a couple of months ago and bought a specimen of DaG 476 from him. He seemed in good spirits then. Do you have his email address?

Hello Chris, I am alive and well. Aside from my abdomen looking much like a combination of the Tharsis and Valles Marineris regions on the planet Mars, I am doing okay. Thanks for asking. BTW, years ago I started making of list of meteorites which have hit Earth objects. Your list in Mercury was my inspiration.

Hi Eric, Great news. It is wonderful that a group of people from such a list can get together and support an individual they have never met like this. I am glad you were able to pass on all our hopes for his full recovery with a personal visit.

[meteorite-list] Walter Branch
Hello Everyone, We had an exciting day today. Walter moved to the Rehabilitation Center. He no longer has a feeding tube or picc line. He will begin therapy in the morning around 9:00 a.m. and finish around 4:00 p.m. I suspect my visit tomorrow will be short:) depending on how grouchy he is! One of the rehab workers told me the average length of stay is about 2 weeks. So hopefully Walter will be home soon. I appreciate all of the support financially and emotionally. I have saved all of the emails so that Walter can read them when he gets home. Thanks for all of your encouragement and support!

Re: [meteorite-list] Walter Branch
Dear Eric, How wonderful that you did that! Yeah, Walter has only now met just two of us but wait until he gets to Tucson next year... I hope we don't scare him off. List, I have never been through what Walter is going through. I do, however, have experience with recovery from surgery after surgery after surgery. Help and support comes very early on but then tapers off. Now is the time when Walter needs all the strength and support we can give. I know you've all been thinking about him and waiting for the updates just like I have. Please take the time to send a digital hug, prayer, good thought, or positive vibe his way at [EMAIL PROTECTED] Anyone wishing to send a snail-mail card or donation please contact me off-list. Oh, and speaking of Rebekah... I am still accepting donations for the Walter Branch Recovery Fund but the focus has changed slightly. I'm trying to raise an additional $550 for Rebekah.

Hello list, I was out of mail contact for a while. All is fine since a couple of hours. I owe to many of you replies. Please be patient, they should reach you gradually from tomorrow on. Upon reading the numerous mails that accumulated, I first believe I owe a prioritary answer to Sabrina about Walter and daughter's accident. --- Dear Sabrina and Walter, This sad news is for sure a real tragedy for Walter, your beloved daughter and your whole family. I am just feeling so bad reading the news, although I only know Walter through reading posts about him and his achievements. Please accept my most sincere sympathy. I feel so fully concerned by your pain. Two complementary messages for all of you are just crossing my mind. Please first just keep strong faith! Never stop struggling. Walter and your daughter must and will recover, that is sure. The second suggestion is that Walter must find mental strength to fight and to very strongly wish to recover soon. Will and faith can help all of you to not only stimulate your minds but also bodies and contribute to a more steady recovery. Now, I'll pray. This quite often helps. I am sure you know.

Maybe you now think that you are not so very important. But you are extremely important because you are a vital part of your family, your friends and, well, because you are one of us. This reminds me of my all time favorite Hollywood movie It's a Wonderful Life with the wonderful Jimmy Stewart. I am sure you know this film.

[meteorite-list] Walter Branch Recovery Donations
Hello List, After reading the bad news about Walter and his daughter, I called Maria Haas who was in Tucson attending the Gem Mineral Show to tell her the news. Being the good soul that she is, she came up with the idea to collect donations to assist Walter and his family during this trying situation. Maria spent the better part of two days collecting donations from meteorite folks attending the Show and was delighted to find that members of the meteorite community were quite generous. During a phone conversation with Maria on Monday ( she was hunting meteorites in Holbrook with Dave Andrews and Larry Mr. Lucky Atkins), she asked if I'd post this message to the Met. List since she is away from her computer. Anyone who would like to donate money to assist Walter Branch and his family can do so through Maria. She has a Premiere Paypal account, so she can accept payments made with Visa, Master Card, E-Checks, etc. If you prefer to mail donations to Maria that is possible too. Here is her Paypal account e-mail and also her mailing address. Paypal payments : [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing address: Maria Haas 410 Spring Street Saline MI 48176 She won't be home from her trip to Arizona/Nevada until late on Saturday, February 10, 2007. So if you try to contact her, don't expect a reply until then. From the description of the injuries, I'm guessing Walter's recovery will be a long process. I've never met him in person, but have been in contact with him for pretty close to 10 years. I'm sure that those of you who know him or have done business with him will agree with me that he is a wonderful guy full of integrity, honesty and charm. Please be generous.

[meteorite-list] Walter Branch
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.
