Kyle Ervin, by all accounts, was a happy man with a wife he adored, three great kids, and one on the way. He wrote humorous and newsy Christmas letters to family and friends each year that expressed his profound gratitude for the fullness of love in his life. But weeks before Christmas in 2009, FEAR took center stage in Kyle Ervin's life.

After a fragile and frightening pregnancy, Anthony Ervin was born a month premature via emergency C-section. He weighed only two pounds twelve ounces. As the newborn struggled for life in the neonatal intensive care unit, Kyle's wife Brynn suffered a massive pulmonary embolism.

Kyle, at the hospital when the blood clot stopped his wife's heart did the only thing he could--he prayed. Knowing his wife's only chance for survival was in the hands of the men and women in scrubs that responded to the emergency, he said the only prayer that made sense to him at the time: Please, God, let them be amazing.
