Various Recorded Medical Miracle Stories

By Georgia Diaz


Medical miracle stories are not that unheard of. And they range in their severity bordering on the bizarre. In most cases the fatality of each case had zero chances of survival. But somehow the victims have received a second chance at life. Below are a number of cases that have been recorded in the recent past.

One of the people who went through such an experience is Alcides Moreno. He and his brother are window washers who had the misfortune of falling down forty seven story building. His brother was unlucky and died on the spot. Moreno on the other hand was taken into surgery on arrival at the hospital but went into a vegetative state for three weeks only to wake on Christmas.

Then there is a teenage girl of 17 who was involved in a car accident traveling at an average speed of 70mph. She snapped her neck, back and suffered several other injuries. After a number of operations her doctors had to support her body with eleven rods at various points in her body. Surprisingly she was able to walk one day after her final operation. Five months later she was modeling and was no longer dependent on pain killers.

A fourteen year old known as DZhana Simmons also had an amazing story. She needed a heart transplant which unfortunately failed. As she was on a waiting list for another, doctors had to use pumps to supply her body with blood. This was for about 118 days until finally a new heart was found for her. Her recovery was so first she was able to have a kidney transplant a day after the heart transplant.

Martin Jones a builder lost his eyesight after an industrial accident. But after a unique surgery performed only a few times in Britain he was able to regain sight. It involves taking out part of a tooth and some skin from inside the mouth and placing it in the eye for some time until it regains blood supply. The procedure enabled Mr. Jones to see for the first time his wife of four years.

Then there is the case of the twins suffering from Twin-To-Twin Syndrome. Their parents were to choose which twin to terminate so as to give the other a chance at life. Some doctors however asked to try a laser surgery to help cauterize their vessel. The procedure was a success and they both lived.

Jordan Taylor was involved in an accident that decapitated his skull from the vertebrae. This severed any connection between the bones of his neck and head. His chances of survival were minimized to only one percent. But after much prayers and a surgery he was able to fully recover and is leading a normal life.

One can not mention medical miracle stories without talking of David Blancarte. After being in a motorcycle accident he lost the use of his legs. He lived this way for about twenty years and was hospitalized for eight months. However when he healed, he was able to regain the use of his legs once more.
