Prayer Request Pray for my friend please

I'd just like everyone to know that I pulled this up on his laptop last night. We'd had a few beers, dropped more than a few tears, and more hugs than I could count. I showed him this thread he read every reply, but the last one from fax seemed to bring him the most comfort. He wanted me to tell everyone thanks for your thoughts.

What's making it worse is that they still haven't done an autopsy but I guess Gavean was an organ donor so they "harvested tissue" don't quite know what that means, but I know a part of him will live on physically. They are of course trying to put closure on this and get the funeral done but it may be a week after my buddy's baby left us and it seems like it's dragging on.

Just being there is the best a friend can ask for.

I am surprised they would harvest organs before an autopsy. That seems backwards.

Wow, that's tough.

Positive thoughts headed your way.

Many organs are only usable if they are harvested (that sounds like a really bad term for this, but I don't know of a better one) within a very short period of time after death.
