‘A higher purpose’: Norfolk doctor details medical odyssey in new book
When his world came crashing down around him in the fall of 2021, Dr. Keith Vrbicky of Norfolk went from seemingly perfect health to a shocking diagnosis of acute congestive heart failure.

A devout Catholic who attends Mass nearly every morning, Vrbicky feels he was divinely spared for a purpose — to advocate for organ donation, the quality of UNMC’s care, the power of prayer and the primacy of family.
“I really feel I witnessed a miracle,” the 67 year-old said. “I not only witnessed it, I am the miracle. I wake up thinking about how grateful I am for the gift I’ve been given of a new lease on life. I feel called to share what I’ve gone through. I’m being encouraged by patients and friends to tell this story. It played out over a short period of time, but a lot happened in that short time.”
