Please cross-post if you are friends or share friends with her. I just got this note from Eliza, Crypto's sister. She was in an accident and is in ultra-grave condition. Please keep her close in your thoughts.

Hi, Doll Parts

I am Crypto's sister Eliza. I have the following message for you to post. We do not have contact information for many of her friends. When you put up the post, I'll give a comment and let people know they can send stuff to me.

POST:

Crypto was very severely injured Friday, April 27 while trying to board a train in Innsbruck, Austria. Both legs have been amputated about 5" above the knee. She is in an induced coma. An additional operation is scheduled for Wednesday (tomorrow). The hospital she is in has a specialized trauma center and has very good equipment.

Her mother, Sally, will be flying out on Thursday and arriving on Friday. Her sister Magda will be out this weekend. We do not know if she will be conscious by then.

we have set up a blog at

chukkasupport.blogspot.com/

Not much there yet. We will try to keep it up to date as we learn about her condition.

We do not know when she will be coming home but when she does, she will need as much love and support as possible. Please send her your thoughts and messages.

  • OOOOOOOOOOOO!


    I am sooo sorry to hear that.

    Please pass on all positive energy you can from me to her though she does not know me in person but I have felt somewhat close in the virtual.
    I had a chance to meet her a few years ago once but my timming was off.

    It may not seem like much coming from me but I realy do care.


    That just hit me hard.

    Thanks for sharing. For lack of better words.
  • I sincerely hope with all my heart that she comes up with the right polymer for this one. I'm not trying to be flip, but hoping it might somehow get a little grin out of her when she is better and might read this. I was listening to "mercy now" today and thought of you. You could use a little today.
