THE TWENTY-SECOND BIRTHDAY MIRACLE
On the evening of January 18th, 1977 the night
before my twenty-second
Birthday, I developed massive pain through my groin
area. I refused to go
To the hospital. I
even went to work the next day. However,
the pain
Proved to be too great.
I called home and a friend came and took me to
Had a preoperative of a ruptured meckel’s diverticulum. This was my
Twenty-second birthday.
Subsequent to the operation, I developed gangrene,
Peritonitis, and a 108-degree fever. I was packed in an ice bed. I developed
Surgical shock and my blood count went down to three.
Doctor Christian worked furiously to try and get more IV’s
into me. The
Catholic priest, Father Joseph Newell, was called in for me
to make my final
Confession. He asked
me if I wanted to make an Act of Contrition or say
Something in my own words.
If it was the last thing that I ever said, I wanted
It to be in my own words.
What I said was: “I don’t think
God wants me to
Die, but if he does, there must be a reason. But if he wants me to live, I would
Live for my family, my friends, and for all people
everywhere. And if I do die,
Please bless my father, my mother, my 2 sisters, my family,
my friends, and my
Work. Because it
would be harder on them, than it would be on me.”
Two weeks later, I woke up alive.

Have any of you experienced a medical miracle that you know
that God had
A hand in---if so---please feel free to share it.
