A Miracle For Jessica


I first wrote about Jessica over four years ago, well actually, I gave her a guest post. She is a long term survivor of Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, except longer in terms of years, as well as much younger than I was when I faced it. You can see that post at this link:

Unfortunately, early last month, Jessica suffered a massive heart attack. Her heart, compromised from late effects from her treatments (same situation as mine), without warning, caused a near fatal, actually at times, fatal, event. Doctors did everything they could to save her. And they did. But it left her in a situation that will call for just one more miracle. She must have a heart transplant to survive.

That moment will come tomorrow. A donor has been found, and Jessica will be given that literal second chance at life, from the gift of life, a heart transplant.

So I ask all my followers of Paul’s Heart, whether you pray or believe in positive vibes and thoughts, to send everything you have her way this evening, and tomorrow, and for the entire transplant team to protect and guide their hands, minds, and skills as they save Jessica’s life tomorrow, so that she can return home to her two sons.
