Our Impact
James and Bridget Dewees bring firsthand experience to their mission, having undergone the challenging journey of organ transplantation James as a recipient and Bridget a caregiver. Their profound story is captured in the book ICU God, which chronicles James' courageous 65-day battle in the ICU and his previous 8-year path to wellness. Through James's life-changing heart transplant, not only did he experience physical healing, but his transformative journey also touched the lives of those around him on a spiritual level. Drawing from their personal trials, James and Bridget have gained invaluable strategies and coping mechanisms that can benefit others embarking on similar paths to wellness including:
-Mentoring
-Support for Families
-Education about the Process
-Caregiver workshops
-Care packages for waiting room
