Lifesaving Nitric Oxide Fund To Reduce Pulmonary Hypertension In addition to being a by-product of cigarette smoke and rush hour traffic, nitric oxide is used in pediatric intensive care. The inner lining of blood vessels uses nitric oxide to signal the surrounding smooth muscle to relax, thereby increasing blood flow. By dilating the veins there is less blood returned to the heart, thereby decreasing the heart's work. We've been using this frequently after surgery with our kids and it has been critical to our lifesaving work. Please give today to ensure that these surgeries are not in vain - that we are able to deal with both the cause and the effects of congenital heart disease in these dear Iraqi children.

Repeater Tshirt Added to Store - $12 PREORDER SALE ENDS SOON!

October 17, 2007 by Jeremy 

Top 5 Reasons We Added Another TShirt to the Store

1. Some people don’t look good in baby blue!

2. Text based shirts don’t engender conversation as much, but they convey the message more immediately.

3. We almost ran out of the other shirt and needed a new shirt immediately.

4. We love activists like you who want to continue to support the movement toward a peaceful Iraq by serving her people.

5. We are close to two major articles being published and our first full heart surgery and thought we’d help you celebrate with us!

Jeremy Courtney lives and loves in Iraq as a co-founder and Executive Director of the Preemptive Love Coalition. He's also the father of two spectacular children, and married to the lovely Jessica Courtney. When not absorbed in PLC work he can be found writing songs and singing about hope and future.
