Update

I'm so lucky to have so many of you thinking of me and my family during this tough time...thank you. Thank you for all the prayers.

Dad has taken a turn for the worst, and we are hoping to get the lvad(heart pump) in asap. He will be in the hospital for upto 3-4 months after he gets that put in. Its a long and hard recovery. We are hopeful that it will make him feel better and get him stable to wait for a heart. The video you saw was a very successful story...it would be amazing if that happened with dad. We have to pray that his surgery and recovery will go just as good.

The doctors say we don't have much time, so we are hoping to get everything moving at the beginning of this week. Its a process though..you have to get approved just like you would for a heart transplant.

Please continue to pray for us...this is by far the hardest thing I've ever gone through.
