Mark Robinson, Plano, Texas, is suffering from serious heart problems and is in terminal condition.

As of Jan. 19, 2009, he was in an ICU in Dallas awaiting a heart transplant. He recently had pneumonia that wasn't responsive to antibiotics, and at the hospital the diagnosis came back as being cardiomyopathy. He then had complete heart failure, and had a pump
installed to keep him alive till a matching heart was available. As of tonight (Jan. 30), his sister Felicity Reedy of Tyler, Texas, writes that the condition
has damaged his other organs beyond recovery. He is heavily sedated at this point. Please pray for him, his wife Dianne, son Alexander, and the entire Robinson family: mother Margaret, brother Robert and sisters Mary and Felicity. His older brother John died of prostate cancer in January 2006.
