81. Miracle Healing of Traumatic Brain Injury

Alex was days away from his first day of college (2020) when tragedy struck.  A jet ski accident left him with a severe traumatic brain injury, 3 broken ribs, a broken jaw, a broken clavicle, fixed and dilated pupils, and a punctured lung.  Given his Glascow Coma Score of 3 (lowest possible score nearly always indicating no chance of survival), and the loss of most of his blood volume, his father was greeted in the ER with the news no parent wants to hear, "We need to prepare you."  Despite the worst possible prognosis, Alex has overcome impossible odds.  Miraculously, he is alive, he has a new relationship with the Holy Spirit, he is working, he is running, and has plans and big dreams for college in 2022!

  In this episode Alex shares:

• How the accident affected his body and memory.
• The people God sent into his life that had a huge impact on his healing.
• The beautiful new relationship he has with the Holy Spirit, who clearly guides him.
• Being featured on the local news several times and meeting the people that intervened on that crazy day (watch link below to see a few of the key people that are part of this miracle).
• How contracting the big bad virus was actually a blessing for him (crazy!).  His doctor was amazed.
• How prayer and worship music was so powerful in his journey (see playlists below).
• How life is different now, a new career path and new dream.
• His gratitude to God, to his care providers at Atrium and at the Shepherd Center (Atlanta), and especially his parents, for doing everything in their power to help.
