The Incredible Miracle of a 4-Year-Old Who Survived Drowning After Being Underwater for NINE Minutes!


(England) - [Gospel Herald] In what doctors can only describe as a "miracle", a 4-year-old boy who fell into a swimming pool and was underwater for nine minutes has made a full recovery after his mother tirelessly prayed for his healing.

Doctors told Roseann and Lewis Birtle that their son, John-Henry, would not be able to walk, talk or recognize them again after he fell into a hotel pool while on vacation. Before his mother frantically pulled him out of the pool, the little boy was starved of oxygen for 28 minutes and his pulse did not return for 20 minutes - meaning he had technically drowned in that time.

A member of staff rushed to give the lifeless child CPR, as Roseann and Lewis frantically watched, begging God to spare their son's life.
 

"We were praying the whole time the lady was giving him CPR, and I had faith that God was going to heal him," Roseann recalled.

John-Henry was then rushed to John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford, where he spent 13 days on life support. He was then transferred to Nottingham Children's Hospital for specialist treatment, where doctors prepared his parents for the worst.
 

However, God didn't wait to show His faithfulness: After just two months of treatment, the little boy defied expectations and made an incredible recovery. He's now eating, walking and starting to speak again. (The Gospel Herald)
