I don't have a way of reaching Capt. Furat, so I emailed Maya Alleruzzo and asked if she could pass it along. Maya has written about Capt. Furat in the Washington Times. Maya graciously agreed.

Hi Jeff,
Thank you so much! I'll pass it along to Furat right now. He's doing great, and getting better day by day. I'll write to Renee as well.
Maya

Thank you very much, Maya!

Update: My commenter had a reply:

Jeff:
Thank you for contacting Maya. She indicated to you that
she would contact Captain Furat and e-mail me. You've helped
create a miracle.
