"A big thank you to this wonderful organization for their generosity and focus on supporting families in crisis. March 31st we received the call no parent wants; our daughter had been in a catastrophic motorcycle accident. Her injuries were life threatening. Upon entering the ER, she went into cardiac arrest. She lost more than 1/2 the blood in her body. Each limb suffered multiple fractures and the internal abdominal injuries were extensive. She is 33; a mother to a beautiful 9 year old daughter and an ICU nurse at Advent Health. She has worked in CVICU & ACSU. She was critical and not expected to live. Drs told us to prepare to say goodbye. One surgeon shared she had never seen anyone recover with the injuries our baby had. Fast forward 4 weeks- she is ALIVE. Recovering. She has a long road ahead; months of inpatient care, rehab, but she is alive and fighting! During week 3, she received a care package from ‘Healing Drew’s Heart Foundation' The package brought tears to her eyes and such joy. She understands the challenges families face when their loved ones are in crisis. Now she is experiencing it from the other side. Drew’s Heart is inspiring, humbling and amazing in it’s support and message! Thank you for your love and care! We look forward to paying it forward!"
As celebrate Easter 2022 its Hard to believe that it has been 3 years since we did one of our first HDH gift totes. Since then so much has changed and right now Walker is recovering from his triple organ transplant (2 lungs and 1 kidney). Please continue to pray for Walkers continued healing and for his wonderful family who has always been right by his side,
A ‘Celebration of Life’ service will be held on January 29th at 11am at the First Presbyterian Church of Orlando for our son, Walker Gray McKnight, who passed away peacefully on December 31st, 2024. He was 25 and died due to organ failure from a double lung and kidney transplant in 2022. The service is open to all who care to celebrate his life. His life was a joy, a tragedy, and a finally a triumph of faith filled with uncommon courage in his will to live. He loved his family and his friends with an open heart that took great pride in their successes and lifted their spirits in times of trouble. His life, while cut short due to medical illnesses, touched many people as they witnessed his strength of character and love for life through extraordinary medical trauma.
