John,
THANK YOU! Your action saved a conscious man from dying under the 10-Day Rule!
When you first started praying for him, Jesus S. had less than 48 hours to live. A Christian hospital planned to take away his care against his will at the beginning of November.
(This is shocking and cruel but still legal under the horrible Texas “10-Day Rule.”)
God answered your prayers, John, and delayed the deadline, but the hospital scheduled another meeting yesterday that could have started the countdown AGAIN.

Jesus is conscious, and was even watching TV a few days ago and pressing the button on his hospital remote to call for the nurses, his brother Robert said.
Your support equipped our frontline patient advocates to negotiate with the hospital and prepare legal options if the committee attempted to prompt his death under the horrible Texas law.
PRAISE GOD: The Christian hospital stopped the 10-day process on Jesus for the SECOND TIME.
Just ONE HOUR before the meeting was to begin, our lawyers were notified that the hospital had decided to continue treating Jesus and not pursue the 10-day process any longer.
John, this Thanksgiving, we give thanks for YOU! Jesus is only alive today because of the prayers and life-saving donations of friends like you.

Your generosity to the Texas Right to Life Patient Advocacy Fund ensures that there is a legal defense to anyone who calls for help for a hospitalized family member.
And, John, this is not the end of the story...
Not only did we stop the countdown on Jesus’ life, but our team discovered that other facilities are willing to treat him! The family and hospital are now working together to fix a problem with Jesus’ insurance and then move forward in his recovery.
Stories like this magnify God's glory because you bring hope to countless families every year.
Thank you for fighting for Life.
- Texas Right to Life
