New Lungs For Jeremy

New Lungs For Jeremy

This is Jeremy and he is in need of a lung transplant. A little over a year ago it started with a cough. Did I mention he's only 34, yes 34.

Little did we know we would be here, waiting, waiting for the doctors to call him in. Life is crazy, one day I'm watching him be an incredible big brother, to an inspirational pastor, to a loving husband, and to most importantly, a pretty cool Dad. Now I see him weaker than ever and unable to do things he once could. How can someone at 34 need new lungs in order to live. I watch him now cough unti

I wanted to thank everyone for the outpouring of love shown to myself and my family these past couple years, and especially these last couple of weeks. I am so thankful for those the Lord has placed in my life to be by my side during this time. I was blown away by the amount of people in attendance at Jeremy's memorial service last Friday, but yet I wasn't surprised. He was and is well loved, as is all of the Davis family. He has made a tremendous impact on our amazing community, and I know he touched the lives of many. What a legacy he has left ❤️. I've tried to send cards, but I know I have missed so many. God bless you all.

Jeremy's service will be held on Friday Aug. 26th at the Englewood Event Center 3069 S. McCall Rd. Englewood FL 34224. We will be gathering at 2:00PM with a service to follow at 3:00PM. Our family is blessed ❤ I can't thank you all enough for the love and support. Everyone has been so offering and lots are asking how they can help. I know friends and church families are pulling together and doing what they can. We wanted to express how much we appreciate it all.- Katie

This is the post I never thought I would have to share, the one I never wanted to but I know I should because I know how much everyone loves him. This past week has been one of the most challenging weeks my family has had to face. Last night Aug.15 at 9:25 my Bub (Jeremy) passed away. The only comfort we have had is knowing he is with our beautiful Mom in heaven. I can't thank everyone enough for keeping our family in your prayers. I'm sorry I couldn't get to everyone but do know during his last days we assured him how loved he is and how special he is. He was so strong till the very end. Our family is devastated. When things sink in I'm going to share one more post regarding his service and arrangements and then "New Lungs for Jeremy" will be in remembrance.-Katie

What a day....

A busy day is a productive day. So many are praying, I know GOD hears our prayers. I feel like any minute we are going to witness a miracle. That's what it's going to take. I don't like getting into to much detail but wanted to share an update with you all. Jeremy is still very uncomfortable and having a hard time breathing. X-rays have shown fluid around both sides of his lungs. The last 24hrs have been spent getting that taken care of by draining and testing. Once that could get done we could do a CT scan, which was done about an hour ago. We have not got the results back from that.

A few have reached out on how or what to pray for. We're standing together in faith because we know our GOD is a good GOD and does not want Jeremy suffering. We know the Holy Spirit is alive and the GOD we serve is a healing GOD. Sure we heard the Drs., and we see what this is doing to him, but I do not believe he is going to die and neither should you. He is going to be healed in Jesus name. Those words have so much power, I know that because when I pray over my brother, although I am sad, a sense of peace comes over me and I hear GOD say "I've got this."

To all of you that have shared and reached out...Dont give up. Keeping those prayer chains strong is so important and so uplifting that the devil has no business in this place. We love everyone so much. I'll share another update tomorrow.

Thank you all so much for the love and support. We are in Miami checked into a hotel for the next couple of nights to be close to my brother. As of now we feel that the Drs here are very thorough asking all the right questions. Currently he is in ICU where they can monitor him closely running every test necessary to rule out the worse. Today was better then yesterday and right now Jeremy is still restless and having a hard time breathing. The side effects of the chemo have also been hard on him but we are not giving up. He is strong and our faith is stronger. We love everyone so much for taking the time to send prayers. I will continue to share more updates as the week goes on.-Katie

Wanted to give a quick update:

After we called Jeremy's Drs. they thought the best decision would be to bring him to Jackson Memorial in Miami. We were driving home from the keys and this hospital is ranked #5 in the country. Believing that GOD has directed us here and that my brother is going to receive the best treatment possible. Pray with us that any minute his new lungs are renewed, he will jump out of this bed screaming and shouting praising God. Thank you all for the love and support...don't give up, he's our miracle ❤️

It's been awhile since we felt a need to share or post any updates. But as some may know Jeremy is now suffering lung cancer. About a year after the transplant he began feeling ill and was diagnosed. He has underwent chemo treatments for the last 9-10 months. In November we lost our beautiful mother to this terrible disease. Still trying to heal our wounds we are now watching my big brother suffer the same way. We need your prayers, he's asked we share what's going on so our friends and family can all lift him up in prayer. We truly truly believe at this point GOD is who will heal my brother. Please pray for my sister in law, my dad, my nephews and me that we remain strong in our faith for him. We went on a family vacation this week to the beautiful Keys. We are on our way home and heading to Tampa to bring Jeremy to the hospital. I'll post future updates here soon.

It was one year ago this morning that we were heading to the hospital to get Jeremy's new lungs. Our hearts were filled with so much joy!! Tomorrow, September 10, marks the one year anniversary that Jeremy received his new lungs! I can't believe it has been a year. Words can't describe what I feel in moments like these pictures show, and everyday moments when I see Jeremy doing something that we all could so easily take for granted. Thank you God for our salvation, and now that you will continue to bless Jeremy with healthy lungs and a long life! Thank you everyone for all your prayers and support this past year. There truly have been times we could feel ourselves completely wrapped in the prayers of others! God is faithful and so good!! Love you Jeremy!

It's amazing to think that in just four days, I will have had my transplant for nine months. It is awesome to be able to do normal things again. God is so good! Thank you for all of your prayers and support...
