Life’s Miracle
Submitted by: Donna B.
Orlando, FLI am a married 40 year old mother of an 18 y/o son and 13 y/o daughter. I have been a nurse for 19 years and also have my Real Estate Lic.
My husband of 15 years was one of the healthiest people I’ve known. Throughout our marriage I have never known him to be sick. In January 2007 he started complaining of being light headed with dizziness and headaches. He went to the Doctors and they did not find anything wrong, during his physical exam and blood work. A few days later he was struck with a severe headache. I called the doctor and demanded further tests be done. He was sent for an MRI of the brain that same day and the next morning we were called and scheduled to see a specialist in Neurology. My husband was diagnosed with a brain tumor as big as an egg and it was sitting on the base of his brain stem.
He was given 4 months to live without brain surgery, and the possibility of spending the rest of is life on a respirator with feeding tubes and the chance that he would not be able to walk or talk because of the location of the tumor if he did have the surgery. Our world seemed to come to a crashing stop!!
My husband chose not to have the surgery; he believed he didn’t want to live that way after the surgery.
A friend of mine gave me The Secret Audio Tapes, and as I listened to the CDs I started to understand the power within us to make the things we want most in our lives manifest.
I shared the CDs with my husband after listening to them we both agreed that he would have the surgery. We had in our minds that he would not only make it through the surgery but that he would not have any of the post surgery complications that the doctors had said were to be expected.
Seven days after being diagnosed with the tumor, he had the surgery. He came out of surgery not only breathing and swallowing on his own, but was moved out of the intensive care within 48 hours and five days after surgery he was released from the hospital. He was able to walk with the help of a walker and a week after that he was walking on his own. Three and a half weeks after surgery he was back to work running the administrative side of his construction business and 6 weeks after surgery he feels that he is at 100%. He is back to his old self.
His doctors call him a miracle, they can’t believe he did as well as he did. He is the talk of their morning rounds at the hospital.
My husband and I know why his outcome happened the way it did, because it was the power of our thoughts that manifested our desires. We now live every day with gratitude and the knowledge that we are in control of our destinies.
