Originally Posted By RidgebackLuver Yet another prayer request for you all. Our associate pastor, who just turned 30, has a wife and two young kids in the hospital fighting for his life. On Sunday they thought he just had a bad case of the flu and took him to the Dr. where he was admitted to the hospital. There is something wrong with his heart and they don't know what. It is only working at 20% right now and he may need a transplant. They are doing a biopsy today and finding out what exactly is going on. His wife is beside herself as her own father died at the age of 30. She isn't eating or sleeping and they had to give her anti-anxiety pills which didn't comply well with her. She had trouble comprehending what the doctors were saying to her and is off them now. Their 14 month old daughter has had heart problems since she was in the womb and they still don't know what will ultimately happen with her. I don't want to mention his name, but I'll call him J.C.. He is well loved and supported by our church and has lots of friends and loved ones praying for him, but he could always use more. He needs an absolute miracle. Thanks guys!!!

Originally Posted By momof4boys I will keep them in my prayers. Keep us updated- flu like symptoms and decreased heart function sounds a lot like the disease that damaged my son's heart. He had a miracle- we'll pray this man does also.

Originally Posted By RidgebackLuver Thank you guys. Haven't heard any updates yet. The wife was told he would probably be there at least a month so she should think about renting an apartment in that area, though it's extremely expensive and I don't know how she'll afford it. It's about two hours from where we live. At least the kids aren't in school yet so they won't need to be pulled out.
