Pastor John Gray has been admitted into the hospital’s critical care unit and preparing for two emergency surgeries.
According to his wife Aventer Gray, John had been feeling a little different the past couple of weeks and decided to go to the ER Thursday.
Medical staff immediately admitted him for a Saddle pulmonary embolism in the pulmonary artery and more lung blood clots.
Aventer explained, “The Saddle PE is in a position that could potentially end his life if it shifts at all. The clot burden is severe and only God is holding it in place. He is currently in CCU and based on CT & Echo we will need two types of surgery due to the pressure now on the heart within the next 24 hours.”
She added, “To place this in perspective, the doctor said that people have come into the hospital dead with this exact scenario he walked in with.”
Aventer shared the news on Instagram.
John Gray is the Senior Pastor at Relentless Church in Greenville, SC. They just recently opened a new location in Atlanta, GA.
In the post, Aventer thanked her church family.
“THANK YOU TO OUR @relentlessgreenville @relentlessatlanta & our @lakewoodchurch for those that showed up physically literally already and reached out in multiple ways after just the word of mouth! We love you all!”
Praying that the surgeries go well, and for a speedy recovery.
