The phone call every transplant family waits for is filled with two emotions at the same time — hope for one life, and heartbreak for another.
That’s where Miller’s family is tonight in Texas.
They’re in Houston after getting the call that could change everything.
A call that brings the possibility of new lungs… and the quiet, sacred weight of knowing another family may soon be saying goodbye so Miller can have a chance to live.
They’re asking for prayers — for peace in impossible decisions, and for comfort for the family whose loss could become Miller’s second chance. There is joy wrapped in sorrow here, and love woven through grief.
Miller is a two-time AML leukemia survivor, a two-time bone marrow transplant warrior, and now he’s fighting a rare lung disease that has slowly taken his breath away.
Doctors at Texas Children’s Hospital — home to the nation’s top lung transplant program — are evaluating whether he can be listed for a transplant that could give him his life back.
The process is heavy. The numbers are small. The stakes couldn’t be higher.
He tells his doctors he leans on the prayers and messages from people he’s never met. He says he believes God still has a plan for his life.
His family is holding space for both miracles and mourning — praying for new lungs, while honoring the family whose selfless decision could make that miracle possible.
What words would you offer a family living in the space between hope and heartbreak?
