A Heart That Needs Saving

For the last five years, Jackie’s life has been an unrelenting battle — one that’s taken her to the emergency room more than seven times after collapsing or suffering intense chest pains from her heart going into afib or dangerous tachycardia.

She’s survived what feels like a lifetime of battles:

• A brain tumor that God miraculously removed

• A torn meniscus in her left knee

• A mild heart attack

• Two mini-strokes

• Four heart ablations

• A pacemaker to keep her heart in rhythm

Still, the fight isn’t over. Jackie’s next battle is her greatest yet:

Open-heart surgery.

After years of waiting and praying, Jackie has just received word: she is approved for surgery at Shands Hospital in Gainesville. The relief is overwhelming—but it brings another need. Jackie won’t be able to work for an unknown stretch of time.

Through every storm, Jackie has refused to give up. She’s held on with grit, with tears, with prayer. She has leaned on her faith when her body had nothing left to give.

But what makes Jackie’s story even more powerful is this:

While her own body has betrayed her again and again, her heart has never stopped giving.

She has been the one who showed up when a friend is in crisis. The woman who gave her last bit of strength to lift someone else up. Jackie has poured herself out for others—now her cup needs filling.

Her body is weary.

The pain is unrelenting.

The bills are crushing.

And this time… she cannot fight alone.
