Chukka Sachs 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 Sachs, 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 love you and you will be home again, soon. We will be waiting !
I want to hop on a plane and fly where ever you are and make things better for you & everyone around you ... Not so sure I could help.
But the genuine feeling is there, and I know it is shared by everyone who loves you.
So if you, or "they", or anyone needs anything, tell em' to just ask!
We are all here for you!

I'm stunned. Totally, utterly stunned. Of all the things to happen, after all she's went through with Scott's passing and now this! My thoughts, hopes, and prayers are with you Fishy.
I hope the family will post updates here and if anything's needed, please just ask.
We love you DasChuck!
It may seem a little weird and like "who in the heck is that anyway?" but it's true.
You're certainly in my thoughts.
Show us how it's done - again.

We share the strength that comes from having had the love of our life ... and losing them to young and too tragically. You said you couldn't believe it--you never thought you'd have that love. You are granted as many miracles as you need! It seems so far to dig deep in our heart to keep going when these devastating things happen. I know Bounce wants you to keep showing us how to do life with the most amazing courage I've ever seen. Don't give up! I still have that crazy talking cow you guys gave me. I fully expect you to take your turn watching it! Much love across the airwaves til I see you! Diane/Smoldering Grace
With all my love fish
come home to us

I was so shocked to read this... I don't know Fishy personally, but I have always enjoyed her wit and banter on tribe. I know she has already been through too much already, and I feel so saddened that she needs to go through through another ordeal.
I am sending you a BIG HUG and will keep you in my thoughts. Much Love...
Hedy
I really really want my buddy to be ok...

Fishy baby...

Love ya babe... really.

Crypto,
I have so enjoyed your posts on tribe and though we've not yet met, I feel that familial thing with you. My best hopes and intentions are with you and you find your way though this latest difficulty.
I am available to you when next you are on the playa; just BRCPO me a note as to your whereabouts (to Astral Vortex) and I'm there.
See, Crypto ... your family loves you. it was only minutes before the love started pouring in your direction. hundreds of people sending you all they've got - many who've never even met you.
yes, I agree ... show us how it's done AGAIN.
Love, Light, Will, and Hope ...
in Spades ...

Words fail me.
We love you sweetheart - we're here with you, even half a world away. We lift you up in our prayers and thoughts.
There's such a river of love and emotion pouring out for you that you can float all the way back here on it.

Cryptofish,
You must have an idea that you are so greatly admired.I have had such brief meetings with you at the annual meet and greets,but have always been left feeling privelaged to have met you. You are an example of such incredible integrity,and strength. Your glass fused alligator pendant from 2003 hangs at my desk lamp and keeps me inspired and hopeful you will be raising hell soon.
Love Bambi of Finland
Precious Fishy- My thoughts are with you!
Oh Poof POof POOF dear sweet chukka.. sending healing wishes and thoughts .. gentle ((hugs))

I have been away from my extended family awhile now I just found this thread You are so loved come home soon.
Your a tough cookie(cryptofishist dominasis)I know you have walked through hell a few times already in life you will get through this...
Why does it take a tragedy to remind us who is our family on earth, who touches our lives...
I miss and love you all
You know who you are
Get well soon and come home soon we all will be here to help...
Love Bob- Rockdad
Hi Chukka,
I just wanted to let you know I had a bit of an accident, myself. I broke my neck getting in the ambulance. You'd think after 15 years I'd know to duck better. DO NOT WORRY! I broke it low enough that it can be repaired. My surgery is June 14th in Walnut Creek. I just didn't want you to think that my possible delayed contact was due to any lack of thoughts or prayers coming your way! I am so proud of the progress you've made. If by any chance either one of us makes it to the playa this year, we will make quite the pair! I have no idea what kind of odd apparatus may be upon my head! We'll make a costume out of it : ) I am also sending a snail mail card to you but was worried (well, really hopeful) that you may be crossing the skies toward home. Believe me I wish I could be your transport nurse. If you get to feeling well enough to write, my home address is
Diane Matthews, RN, Esq.
5954 Park Village Street, Sacramento, CA 95822
Love, Diane
