The donor organ continues to check out. Now scheduled for late morning or early afternoon.
Obviously, this means that a family is dealing with a tragic event. The donor is brain-dead and they are in grief.
My prayers are for comfort and healing in their loss of their loved one. I thank them for the gifts of life they are giving to me and others.
Remember them also in your prayers.
This type of "beating-heart" cadaver allows the heart to be transplanted without it being ischemic (without blood flow). That is the best for the quality of the organ. Some organs are chilled and hours removed from graft but these still work.
The truth is that all of this is scary but I am comforted by your prayers and support.
