Loss of Dave Phillips/Tributes & Memories
Dave Phillips under went quadruple bypass surgery. He had many complications.
I just received word from Dave's best friend and it doesn't look good for Dave. He is in a fight for his life right now. My heart goes out to him and his family and friends. I will continue to copy and paste the e-mails I receive listing his condition.
Update Jan.26th
I just received this heart breaking news. Dave will be missed by so many.
Denise,
Dave passed away today at 2:15
I saw him this morning at 10 and he was doing ok.
I am sorry to be the one with bad news but I wanted you to know.

Jan. 25th update
Denise,
Dave is still with us, I visited him at 10am this morning. He seemed to be breathing a little harder than yesterday and his blood pressure was a little lower at times (96/43). It was hard to see my friend this morning in this condition but I know God is with him and will take care of him. His friends at Fred Miranda posted this link and I thought you might like to read it. http://www.birds.cornell.edu/AllAbou...ips/index_html
I will keep you informed.

Jan 24th update
Denise,
They took Dave off the machines this morning at 10:30, he is breathing on his own for now. I will let you know if I hear anything.
Jan. 23rd update: Bad news.
Denise,
I talked with Dave's sister this morning, the doctors told her and his mother that there is nothing else they can do for Dave and Dave will probably not make it thru this weekend. I do not like to be the bearer of bad news especially when it concerns such a good friend. I will keep you posted.

Jan.22nd update-We need a miracle
Denise,
Dave's condition had not changed any today, The cardiologist explained the order of events and we need a miracle for Dave. I've already mentioned the brain activity so I think the only thing we can do is pray. Please pray for Dave's family.

Jan 21st update-I can only hope he will recover.
Denise, There's no change in Dave's condition, I visited with him today. I will keep you informed.
Jan. 20th update.This message was sent to me by his friend. I am so sorry to have to bring such bad news to everyone.
Denise,
I saw Dave at 10am, I found out that they did do an eeg and the results were not good. The doctors said they do not think he will wake up. I will let you know if anything changes but keep praying for Dave and his family.

Jan. 19th update-This message was sent to me by his best friend Billy Moore;
Dave is holding his own, he has had a few bad days but his condition is about the same except, today he had some eye movement. The can't do the eeg until he is 48 hours without heart medecine so we are waiting for that. They were going to do it yesterday (eeg) but could not. Continue to pray for him.
