  Well Zach, it is a painful journey however way you cut it, healthy or sickness.  Reality is we all have to reach the end of the line- the train stops.  It is always the ones remain behind that suffer the most.

  My friend, I hope you'll make it through, otherwise, May God bless you.

I spoke with him yesterday but it was very hard to hear as I was in a place with limited cell reception. He is sleeping a lot and he is on oxygen.
I think he said he is more stable, but not sure what that means.
He said he love you all and thanks you for thinking of him.

During my recent cardiac episode as I was being released my ejection fraction( amount of blood that leaves the heart during a contraction, normal is 50% to 55% .). Mine was 20 % down from 48% prior to my heart attack.  Why I feel that Zach has a good chance is today I learned in 3 weeks my ejection fraction is now up to 38%.  Cardiac issues that killed in the past are treated successfully today.  So while I will continue to pray that Zach recovers and continues as a inspiration for me I have reason to be hopeful of a reasonable recovery for Zach.

      I am very surprised that many folks are invoking the Lord for Zach.  I thought only a few think that God truly exist.
