He says though because of the theology that he had learned he praised God for this and he said quote open

I didn't know I could say that, you know. So we go over there and he had two doctor surgeons in there and he said, now if you're still no blockage in your lower abdomen, we can go through the lower part of your stomach up through the valve and drop the heart in and it'd be simple surgery.

My heart was under stress in the middle of all this, but it wasn't a heart attack. And because I was misdiagnosed, they were planning on me having a procedure for the heart. I was 10 minutes away from that procedure when another doctor burst into the room, the hospital room, asked me a series of questions and then said, I'm stopping your procedure.

What had happened is I contracted a viral infection that you only get in the hospital, and I became septic, and I had what they call sepsis, and I don't distress... Viral infection caused them to perform two more operations on me, and so in a space of eight days, I had three operations, and if I may say something on the third, I knew, I'm speaking with you this moment, I knew though I was under anesthesia, I knew I was dying.

And this is something that, for me, has been even more meaningful as of late. I was able to be here shortly after going through all of my recent escapades and heart failure and heart surgery and all of these other things.

But she's doing great now. No more problems. She's all fixed up had the last of her surgeries in December and It's just been fabulous it's just been quite an experience and we feel extremely blessed and fortunate and I Am especially blessed with John because I had some problems also and he just had to take over take care of everything.

A few years ago, I was hospitalized and had to have emergency surgery. While recovering, I was thinking about how I needed to take better care of myself, how I needed to eat better, how I needed to exercise more.

According to a story in the New York Times, prayer by strangers had no effect on the recovery of people undergoing heart surgery, a study had found. The study was conducted for nearly a decade, involving more than 1 ,800 patients.

And my greatest, my things I'm most thankful for are the medical students I took with me on mission trips to Honduras and Guatemala to see the change in their life, the change in their focus, to invest myself in them.

And it was absolutely amazing to me. My dad ended up just a few days later having to get sedated because the oxygen wasn't working so well. They ended up putting a ventilator on him, which, you know, they have to drug you and essentially knock you out for.

As I understand it, the diagnosis of an enlarged heart is not one that anybody would particularly relish, and certainly not one that would set you up for any kind of wonderful, vigorous, athletic activity.

Well, it took 103 minutes, but her heart did stop. They gave her the five minute sort of no touch period and then they started in on the surgery. But when they saw an open Misty's breast bone, they found her heart had started beating again.

Prior to anything ever happening to me, I had had a very healthy 43 years up to that point, never had anything serious happen to me besides a few broken bones, and then in the spring of 05, I started having some pains and just thinking that somehow, some way, I've pulled something, and they kept gnawing, and finally, they culminated in the summer of just at night, especially, where I could not, when I would have a big meal, having some excruciating pain and knowing something was wrong, and I finally, after going to the doctor many times and they said I need to exercise more, do some other things, and I was already a runner, a swimmer, even exercised more every single day, and nothing was happening until we finally had a diameter in my abdominal area, and finally, I don't know how many, over maybe four more weeks, I need to come in, they think it's a cyst, they were gonna do another test to make sure, but told me that one of the people who saw the scan thought it might be cancer.

Yeah. She was right there with me the second time, you know, right before they wheeled me into the OR. So that was actually better.

And that's it God, amen. Anyway, let me go into. Probably know by now. I had a stroke and I can honestly say that was the worst day of my life. They actually had a massive and and how long ago was this?

Does John Barrows have the power to turn a heart. No, but Jesus does and it's just so beautiful to see him do that. Thank you.

Someone had problems in their body. They couldn't walk. Jesus was able to bring full healing. And then the next day and the next day, you know, it never came back. Full healing. Wouldn't you love to have full healing in your body?

Yeah, the main reason why I'm getting hurt hospital is amazing. So I've ever been the care just something you need something else and going back to an original question.

And in this video, Boston Children's Hospital is proud to provide top surgeries to girls as young as 15.

Are you getting what I'm saying in that? And thank both the doctor and God for the healing if it should be granted. But after that caveat, let me say that on a spiritual note, there is no other healer.
