Update on Dan. Miraculously, he is hopefully in surgery now to receive his new heart! He was scheduled to go into the 12 hour surgery last night at 11 p.m. but they slipped it to 11 p.m.this morning. The donor gave all of his organs and it took longer than expected. Please, if you have not designated yourself as an organ donor, re-think it. We are all grateful for your continued prayers.

Prayers of gratitude, Chitoka is improving and has been placed on the liver transplant list at a priority level. Thank you for your continued prayers - it is a long road of recovery. Her mother is helping learn her medication and treatment regimen.

Thank you again for all your prayers for Dan. He had an episode of ventricular tachycardia so they did an ablation. They decided he was not a candidate for the external LVAD procedure and a transplant is now his only option. Pray for comfort for the whole family, especially Dan, as he faces such an undetermined time of waiting for a match. He is aware this may never happen.

Thank you so much. They are so grateful for FPC. And so am I.

Please pray for comfort for Rhonda Barr on the death of her mother in Indiana. Her mother had not been well for some time and was ready. Still, prayers for Rhonda and the family as they face the weeks ahead.

Also, thank you for your prayers for our friend, Dan Ray. He is still in ICU. He is now on dialysis and waiting to stabilize for a heart pump (LVAD) or a heart transplant. His condition remains critical. Please keep up your prayers for Dan and his family. It means a great deal to all of them.

Please pray for healing and comfort for Judy Terry. Judy took a hard fall in downtown Iowa City Friday afternoon landing with her palms down and arms outstretched sustaining painful tissue damage to her arms and wrist and also hit her nose and chipped some teeth. She will be in a lot of discomfort the next few days as she recovers at home with her daughter Sara looking after her. She is thankful for prayers and feels blessed she did not break any bones.

Please pray for our friend, Dan Ray. Dan experienced a cardiac arrest on Saturday. He was airlifted to UIHC and has been in ICU since. He was on a ventilator and was taken off on Wednesday but experienced another cardiac arrest. He was intubated and taken to surgery to remove blockages. He is now running a fever and his condition is critical. Please pray for Dan and his wife, Angela, their daughters Celeste and Giselle and all the doctors and nurses at UIHC. Dan is a beautiful craftsman and human being.
