An Update on Jake

by mtggoldfish // Apr 19, 2016

I have some unfortunate news to share with the community. Jake — many of you know him from his Limited Reviews, Playing Pauper, and Commander Clash — is in critical condition and in need of our prayers. He entered cardiac arrest on Sunday morning and is currently on life support in a cardiac intensive care unit. His wife Micki wanted me to share the situation with the MTGGoldfish community and we ask that everyone keep Jake in their thoughts and pray for him and his family as he battles through this difficult time. If you have words of encouragement or support, please leave them in the comments below and I will forward them to his family.
