At the age of thirty three i was diagnosed with congestive heart failure, cardiomyopathy, which is a very serious disease in which there is no cure except a heart transplant. The basic problem with the heart is that it was enlarged to the size of a cow's and is only pumping blood at 15% and a healthy heart is about 55 to 65%. As you can only imagine my family is deeply worried. I was sent to John Hopkins University hospital in Baltimore, Md and was evaluated for a transplant and i could not be placed on the list bc i am able to walk and not bedridden. I was a 2 on a scale 1–4 and a 4 is what puts you on waiting list of a year wait at minimum. So I asked the dr what my chances are of living, best scenario 5 yrs and only 50 % chance if that. While having tests my mother and my Aunt Sarah find out the dr’s prognosis and my mother is devastated and crying tremendously as we had just buried my younger brother a year earlier from a brain tumor.
After a lot of stressful tests my mother is with me and she is much calmer and she begins to tell me that she and my Aunt had the strangest happening. She was waiting for me when this colored man dressed in hospital gown comes up and takes my mothers hand and when my mother looked into his baby blue eyes she said she never felt such calming peace in all her life. Anyways he takes her hand and he says your his mother, she replied yes crying, and he said to her believe me when i tell you he is going to be okay. She said the calmness and serenity felt she had never seen or experienced in her life. In the next moments my mother said how do you know this and he said again trust me. Soon after my mother turned to my Aunt Sarah and said your not gonna believe what it felt like Ive seen and my Aunt Sarah said like you were looking into the eyes of Christ himself and my mother exclaimed yes and my Aunt Sarah said I know I felt and saw the same thing. Hours later Im in my room and my mother tells me what happened and what my roommate said and I told her mother I dont have a roomate and she says you do hun ,you must not have met him yet but as it turns out I did not have a roommate. This man never was to be seen again.
Now during my illness I developed chronic gout with pain you cant comprehend, diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholestesterol, bigemmini, trigemmini, 1 severe stroke, 1 mini stroke,3 heart attacks and taking 60 pills a day to keep me alive
During my sickness I developed a very strong relationship with my Lord Jesus Christ and prayed for healing, anointed myself with holy oil as God instructed us to do in James 5 vs14, Is any sick among you? let him call the elders of the church,and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the lord.
I also began taking Holy Communion when I felt led by the Holy Spirit. This is very special and powerful gift of the Lord, the body and blood of our Lord Jesus Christ. Its been a long journey and for the last 22years I have believed the Lord would heal me. My faith was strong and I never gave in or gave up no matter how bad it got. When I had the stroke I was driving my 8 year old daughter home on the expressway when i reached for the radio knob and my whole rightside of my body wont move and Im driving 75mph. As you can imagine Im afraid for my daughter whos looking at me saying daddy whats wrong. By the grace of God , I got my daughter home safe and sound. When the cat scan was done I had a 1 1/2″ circle of my brain destroyed.
As I mentioned i had gout, with severe attacks bi weekly and hospitalized several times. I had it so bad i had to crawl up the stairs so I didnt touch my foot. Anyway after yrs of battling it, I cried out to God and begged him to heal me or take me home. The next I started getting better and 3 days later completely healed and never had gout again and thats been 10 yrs now. I was taking 2 needles a day for diabetes up until a year ago now . Now my sugar is perfect and stopped taking insulin and my A1C is perfect. My heart is working at an ejection fraction of 45%, I have not gone into congestive heart failure in 8 yrs, no hospital stays, cured of diabetes, cured of gout, didnt wreck the car with my daughter in it while having a stroke , i have no high blood pressure, normal cholesterol and I only take 6 pills a day instead of 60.
I owe all this to God Almighty, I know in my heart the angel of the Lord told my mother i would be okay and Im gonna be 56 soon and healthier than Ive been in 25 yrs. Now others will say its modern medicine but I assure you if not for the Lord I would not be here. I personally have never read a book I could comprehend. I started reading the bible 25 years ago and God has opened my eyes and I have learned so much with understanding and that to me is a miracle . You can believe what you will but I assure you that all this is because of Gods love and divine mercy. I hope and pray that this inspires just one person to not give up and give the Lord God the love and devotion he deserves. Its written in Matthew 19 vs 26, But Jesus beheld them and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible. Its written in book of James 1 vs 6, But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering, For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven of the wind and tossed. I hope those sick will put your faith in God, and if you have never known God, this is the time to reach out to him, put you faith and trust in him ( hes waiting for you), he loves you. God bless you all.
It's January of 2024 and I would like to add to my testimony of a divine miracle. In 2017 I was diagnosed with prostrate cancer. Out of 12 specimens taken to examine only two were cancerous. I was given 45 rounds of radiation and as of November of 2023, I am cancer free, praise God. During the time of my cancer treatments I had developed some type of disease causing tremendous muscle atrophy. I went to all south Jersey hospitals and ultimately it was recommended for me to go to the Philadelphia hospitals. I went to Jeffersons neurological muscle department. I spent 2 and half years going there and was diagnosed with Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophy. However all genetic testing, and every test performed, all came back negative. As you can only imagine I pray and ask our Father for healing on a daily basis. I weighed 225 or little more when this all started. Eventually I lost 60 pounds and majority of that was muscle. After years of battling tremendous muscle loss, some of my muscles started to regenerate. Jefferson hospital dismissed me and said there was really no more they could do. My weight did return to 220 pounds but still was dealing with alot of muscle loss. In the spring of 2020 I believe I tripped over a big air conditioning unit we had delivered. It was in the living room and I tripped over it in the middle of the night. Hit the wall with my head and shoulder. Not sure what actually happened but what I do know is muscles started to atrophy again. It's now Jan of 2024 and muscles have gotten very weak. Walking has become very difficult. I have been trying to figure out how or what to do to help myself. Countless hours if researching. During this entire time I continue to pray and thank the Lord for everything as well as healing of my muscles. I got it into my head to see another Philadelphia hospital. I prayed on it and I called Pennsylvania University hospital. It's amazing they had a cancelation and i got an appointment January 17th. After meeting with neurologist, she tells me she thinks I was misdiagnosed and that she doesn't believe it's muscular but rather neurological. For the first time I feel as though I may find out what it is and finally get healed. I just want you to know for 7 or 8 years I have struggled with muscles atrophying. It got to the point that I started choking on food. Had a swallowing test done and muscles on left side of my throat had atrophied and swallowing food was difficult. I continued to pray to the Lord for healing and the muscles in my throat were healed over time. I haven't choked on food in 4 or 5 years.
. The reason I'm writing this is I feel someone is going through something like this or even worse. I just want you to know our Father loves you and please put your faith and trust in Him. Also in James chapter 5 we are instructed to anoint with olive oil, when we are sick. I anoint myself almost everyday. To everyone who has problems whether, physical, emotional, financial, whatever it is please pray to our Father and put your trust and faith in Him. He loves you very much and only wants the best for you. Glory be to Almighty God.
