My testimony is of miraculous healing.

My mother had to have emergency surgery Christmas Eve on her cervical spine because degeneration had caused arthritis to compress her spinal cord.

Early Christmas morning, a large blood clot had developed and was now on the spinal cord causing paralysis on her right side. After that surgery, the surgeon told us that she now had a spinal injury and it was uncertain if that would be reversed. I called one of my friends in the worship ministry who did a blast email out to everyone on the worship team.

My mom was sent to a rehab hospital on December 28th. At that time she could not move on her own. I flew back to Indy to meet with the surgeon and neurologist and on 01/06/08; he said that she would not be able to lift herself up to a sitting position for at least 10 weeks.

I spoke with Amery Baygents about the situation and she immediately put her on her personal prayer list as well as the church’s.

By 01/08, my mother was able to move herself to a sitting position without assistance. By the end of the week, 01/11/08, she was already walking with the assistance of a walker. The doctors, nurses and therapists are all amazed at her recovery.

She went home on 01/19/08.

She still has much healing to do, but by God’s grace, she is not paralyzed. Even though my mother has had some complications, God has stepped in and healed her body. We are currently still believing and praying for recovery, especially for the nerve damage from the spinal cord injury that causes severe pain in her arms and hands.
