No one ever expects to find themselves on this journey, but today Tina and Dale received news that changed everything. After careful evaluation, Dale’s medical team made the decision to keep him in the hospital. He will soon undergo a procedure to have an intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) placed to help support his heart as he waits in hope for a life-saving heart transplant. Following the procedure, he will remain in the ICU until a donor heart becomes available. Tina is a cherished member of our chorus, but to us, our chorus mates are so much more than friends—they are family. When one member of our family is walking through a difficult season, we come together to lift one another up with love, encouragement, and practical support. It is our privilege to surround Tina and Dale with that same care during this journey. While their focus is on getting Dale safely through surgery and preparing for transplant, they know the road ahead will be long. After a successful transplant, Dale will face months of recovery, and Tina will be by his side every step of the way. We’ve created this page so friends, family, and our community can come alongside them in practical ways during this season. Whether it’s providing a meal, sending a gift card, helping with household needs, or fulfilling another requested need, every act of generosity helps ease the burden and allows Tina and Dale to focus on what matters most—Dale’s healing and time together. Most of all, we ask for your prayers. Please pray for wisdom for Dale’s medical team, a successful IABP procedure, strength and peace for Tina and Dale, the timely availability of a healthy donor heart, a successful transplant, and a smooth recovery in the months that follow. Thank you for loving Tina and Dale so well. Every prayer, every encouraging message, every donation, and every act of kindness reminds them they are not walking this road alone. We are grateful for each of you as we rally around our chorus family and help carry them through this season with hope and love.
