Ethan did get the heart! They performed surgery late Thursday night, and as of about midnight it was all over, he was moved to a room in the ICU and his new heart was pumping on its own. It's really so amazing.
Thank you for your thoughts and prayers. I think they're working. I'm guessing the next few days are critical, so I'm continuing to stay hopeful.

This is so incredible, I am so profoundly glad this has come true for Ethan - I know the next period is critical in transplant surgery and I wish you and your family all the best for Ethan's full recovery and vibrant life!
Ethan did get that heart; it was a perfect match and attached easily (I know I botched up the terminology here). I haven't yet seen him, but they say he is doing very well.
I hope your surgery went well and that you are enjoying fall. xoxo
p.s. I loved Darjeeling Limited too and felt the same way about Life Aquatic.
