A Miraculous Healing

Yea though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil for thou art with me thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

Almost 11 years ago I became terminally ill. I was brought to the hospital and my blood oxygen level measured at 55% so they immediately put me on Oxygen to try to get me back up. When I was admitted to the hospital I remember them telling me that I had to have a lung biopsy done to check and see if that was what was causing me to be so ill.

That night October 5th 2002, my life took a turn for the worst. They said my fever rose to 106.6 degrees and that would likely cause brain damage. They said I died 3 times before they could stabilize me. They called my family in and told them to start making preparations for my funeral. Two different times they gave up on me and when they had done all they could, God stepped in and brought me back.

They had me on a ventilator for five days the first time and when they took me off I was able to walk, but then my blood oxygen level fell down to 75% and they were having a hard time keeping me stable so they put me on the ventilator again, this time for 10 days.

I went into a comatose state and was totally paralyzed from the neck down. In that condition I couldn’t talk, I thought I had a stroke but they said no. In fact, they never actually diagnosed my condition.

I was in the hospital for a total of 120 days, and the whole time I was totally paralyzed. I had to learn many routine things all over again; like how to talk and how to use my limbs. I was like a vegetable I had no strength in my body, so they sent me over to a rehabilitation center, where I remained for 20 days; still paralyzed from the waist down.

I became so frustrated not being able to walk that I just gave up. I told God I didn’t care if I couldn’t walk for the rest of my life, I wanted to go Home.

So they sent me home in a wheelchair, and 4 months later I was walking. Today I have all my mobility back because God never gave up on me, when I was ready to give up on myself.

I will never forget this time in my life and I will always give God the glory for my healing. All my doctors and nurses call me their miracle patient. When they said I would
never walk again, God said I would.

God is so awesome and I owe my life to him. He is an awesome God!
