"We Love Andrea" was created to update Andrea's friends as she went through a difficult journey. After her second heart transplant when her pulse began to speed up she was given a pacemaker, then a Heart Mate II or LVAD. She was in the Stollery Children's Hospital, then the Mazankowski heart unit in Edmonton, Alberta for 7 months. However, she peacefully died on May 11, 2011 when the rest of her heart and other organs could handle the strain no longer. If you come to this blog, pray for her family and friends, remember to tell your friends you love them, then sign your organ donor card.

9th Heart Birtday

Maynard and Faye were over for supper and Faye quietly said that today was Andrea's 9th heart birthday- her last heart transplant was 9 years ago... It was a hard day for them because they always celebrated this day, going out for lunch or something, and for years she collected little china dolls, one a year to mark the day.
Pray for them earnestly. All these painful "firsts" are wearing them out.
