Alan Has A New Heart!

I still have no internet access, but if anything was worthy of the hassle of blogging from my phone, its this.

Our precious little friend Alan that we met on our last trip to Denver got the call this morning! He just celebrated his First Birthday and has been on the transplant waiting list for 90 days.

The call came late last night and they got the final approval about 4 am. He's been in surgery since 830 this morning and the heart arrived about 30 minutes ago.

The Doctor says its beautiful!

Please keep Alan and his family in your prayers as they embark on this new road of recovery. And also for his donor family, whose loss is more than I can imagine.



P.S.
Be a hero!
Be an Organ Donor!

  1. No one knows his Mommy's joy, like you! How wonderful for them.

    On a side note: how long has it been since we've talked? Where'd your internet run away to?

  2. Oh, yay! I have chills all over my body- I am so happy for that family. Hopefully you can post soon about us getting a heart too.

    I did talk to the coordinator over there, she is very nice. It seems they have quite a few babies too. So sad! I guess one less though :-)

  3. How completely wonderful!!!! Once your internet is up and running, please post a link to their blog. That is. . . if they have one. Alan is in my prayers and so are you and your family. I just read on your blog the twitters (turned mine off again and forgot to turn back on) that you all have been sick! I'm so sorry! Hope you're feeling better soon!
