Jeremy Camp Undergoing Heart Surgery Today

GRAMMY®-nominated singer/songwriter Jeremy Camp  is undergoing heart surgery today to treat atrial fibrillation (AFib), a condition where the heart rhythm becomes irregular and often rapidly beats, leading to symptoms like difficulty in breathing and reduced ability to function normally. 

"There's a lot of prayer warriors out there, people have been praying for me just for different things and I'm super thankful for it," the 46-year-old "Walk By Faith" singer said in a video posted to social media Sunday. 

"I have surgery on Monday. It's a cardiac ablation; they'll go through the veins on my leg and they help this thing called AFib. My heart is in a crazy rhythm and it was affecting a lot of things. And even tonight, I went into AFib on stage and I cut the set short. And so that was difficult. It goes beats really, really fast and I can't breathe. It's hard to function, and so I'm having surgery on Monday to take care of that."

"I just would love your prayers," Camp said. "So thank you guys so much for being amazing for years and so supportive, and this is a big cry for your help and for prayer. So love you guys. Thank you."
