The trauma surgeon that put the team together that saved my life after my accident in November 2010 has asked me to speak next month at a “Miracle Tour” conference at St Joseph’s Hospital/Barrow’s Neurological Institute in Phoenix.
The neurosurgeon who performed the craniotomy told me in a follow up appointment “I consider you my miracle patient. I didn’t tell your family this the night of the accident, but I didn’t think you were going to make it”. When a brain surgeon starts to talk about miracles, one tends to believe more strongly in them. My TBI was classified as “moderate to severe” (GCS was 11). With therapies, six months later I was able to drive again and return to work.
I am very blessed and fortunate. Therefore I am thrilled to have the opportunity, in some small way, to share my story of hope with others. Miracles indeed happen.
God bless you all.
