Below is a message from Kathryn/Kate that she sent out yesterday. As 
an 
update, Don Andres/Tom is having surgery this morning and is still at 
the Henry 
Mayo in Valencia. As of this morning, he is still not receiving 
visitors and 
Kathryn/Kate has expressed that we wait until he is released to make 
any 
visits. I'll update as I hear more.

If you'd like to send a private email back to Kathryn, her email is 
_pesky788 at y..._ (mailto:pesky788 at y...) 

I know that Alexandra and my thoughts are with the family right now.

On our way to party with the Beasties for New Year's Eve, the driver 
of a minivan going East on the 126 did something stupid and lost 
control of his vehicle, causing him to spin directly into our path. 
We hit him full head-on to the broadside of the van going about 50-
60 MPH. He was probably sliding sideways into us at about 30-40 MPH.

We are all alive. Tom is having surgery to pin and plate his right 
leg back together tomorrow morning. He has a bad fracture of the 
femur right above the knee along with a broken kneecap. He also has 
lots of bruising, a head contusion and a broken sternum. Joshua was 
seen and released Saturday afternoon with a cracked collarbone, and 
I was released today with rib bruising, a torqued left knee and a 
brocken sternum. All in all, very lucky considering how totally 
crushed the car was.
