"This morning at a little after 8, Gabe and I rushed into mother's house," Donnie Swaggart said. "Dad had gone into cardiac arrest. He never regained consciousness. We both took turns giving him chest compressions until EMT could get there. I've never seen so many people arrive at one time, and I want to thank them. They were able to get a heartbeat back."
Donnie Swaggart added: "Right now, he is in ICU, and without a miracle, his time will be short. But we believe God — we're not giving up. We've already told the doctors we don't want to hear anything from them. We will make decisions in our own time. But we're going to give the Lord an opportunity to work."
