My friend James who is 65 years old has been a coal miner for close to fourty years, he retired in October 2021 and in January 2022 he has been on oxygen 24 hours a day. He had only 19 percent lung capacity due to black lung, James had a double lung transplant at University of Virginia Monday evening and is recovering in ICU. The doctors said the lungs are working but they have to keep a close watch on him as his body accepts the new lungs. Please hold James and his family up in prayer as he has a long road ahead of him.

They removed the vent from James and his daughter said that he asked the doctor for a cup of black coffee, he must be feeling okay as far as I know. I appreciate the prayers for James, I will update when I get more news.

Update on James, he is in ICU and coherent doing good for the condition he is in. His lungs are full of blood clots, the docs have him on blood thinner to slowly dissolve them, his heart is being affected on the right side and he can't eat any solid food. Continued prayers are very appreciated.

James called me yesterday and sounds good, he has blood clots in his lungs so they are treating him with thinner. He said he walked down the hallway and hopes to get stronger soon, we all appreciate the prayers and want to praise God for His mercy and grace.

The Greek word for soul is the same word as breath. May God breath not only the air into James' new lungs, but also the breath of life.
