MY TESTIMONY by FLYER Thirteen and one-half years ago I was driving my two oldest sons to school. A tractor trailor hit us...right off Hiway 20, and my 7 year old son was instantly killed, and my 6 year old son died on the way to the hospital. I, on the other hand, was cut out of my vehicle with the jaws of life, and airlifted by Life Flight to Georgia Baptist Hospital. I was in a coma for 9 days. I died twice, but they revived me. I then woke up with amnesia as my husband was sitting right in front of me. When he told me what had happened, I told him I was having a bad dream and was going back to sleep. He then told me....I was NOT having a dream! Later on that night, I asked the LORD to end my life. My boys came to me in the most beautiful light...they told me not to cry...they were okay...and then they said, "Mama, we will wait for you...and I feel that God gave this to me...and everytime I get down, I think of what my boys said...it took me four months to walk again. But, by the grace of GOD I am still here... I had a seizure disorder from the accident and God chose not to let me have any more seizures for eleven years. I started having them in my sleep again in 2005. I wondered why GOD would allow this to happen, but then I had to thank HIM for letting me go seizure free for eleven years. I really have had to eat a lot of "humble pie" this year. I am glad to share my testimony with others to give them hope and encouragement. I feel awful if I go without prayer all day long...I also ask God to forgive me if I ever go through the day without thanking HIM...I can just look at my body and that is enough for me to be thankful for...what I mean by that , is all the scars and my leg, which still has hardware in it to this day. They literally reconstructed my lower leg (foot) with bones from my hip. Year 2005 |
