WHEN THE DOCTOR SAYS "THAT'S IT"

With my daughter's birthday being yesterday, my mind goes back to when she was around 3 months old. She got sick and would not take her bottle. I took her to the doctor and he wanted to do some blood work on her. So later that day he called and ask if we could take her to Knoxville. We wanted to know what was wrong and he told us he would talk to us when we got back in the office. So we packed some clothes and went on over to the doctor.
 He told us that she looked like she had a type of whooping cough syndrome. She would cough so hard she would almost lose her breath. She could not keep any milk down and no water. We then went on to Knoxville to the hospital.
They hooked her up to all kinds of monitors and took away her milk and put her on gatorade. She could not keep it down.
They would not let us go out of the room and when they came in they had to wear gowns and masks. So they done more test and then ruled that out. But she still could not eat. She was losing weight and getting weak.
They kept running tests and could not find what the problem was. So on a Sunday moring the dr. came in and talked to me. He told me he did not know what else to do and he had done all he could do for her. Thirty three years ago they did not have all the equipment they have now.
I looked at her, as she was such a pretty baby and thought am I going to lose her. I had packed her some outfits and put them on her each day as I thought if my baby is going to die, then at least she can wear some of her pretty clothes she had got at a shower. I called my mother-in-law and told her what the dr. had just came in and told me. They were having church on Sunday at the church where we lived at. So my mother-in-law got them to pray over a prayer cloth for her.
I had got sick while over there and was running a fever and my throat was almost swelled together. There was no one to stay with her, but me ,as my husband had to work in the mines and we lived a long way. I  did not have any meds to take and could not go get any as I did not have a car with me. There was a big snow on.
So around two that day I was sitting in a chair by the window and was so sick and all at once I felt a warm wind come through the window. I looked to see if the window had come open. It came to me and I felt it as it went from my head to my feet and I thought what was that, and then I looked and seen my daughters dress blowing. It went to her bed and when I looked at her face, there was a glow over her body and you could see it. It went from her head down to her feet and disappeared  at the foot of her bed.
I got to looking and she was waving her arms and going on and gooing. I noticed that my throat was no longer sore and I did no longer have a fever.
My mothr-in-law called and told me they had prayed over a prayer cloth and that my husband was going to bring it over to us. I told her I did not need it because Jesus had already came to the room and had healed me and my baby. I told her what I had seen and what had happened. I started crying as I knew my baby was healed.
So I called to the nurse and told them to bring my baby a bottle. She took it and it stayed down. And later on she drunk another one, it stayed down. The monitors never went off no more. They did not know what to think..
 The next morning the doctor came in and I told him do you believe in prayer, and he said Oh, Yes. So I told him what had happened and he looked at her laying there laughing and going on and he said I sure do believe you and somthing sure has changed. I ask could I go home ,and he said I will write out the orders for you as there as been a miracle in this room. That was the end of it. She is healthy as can be and has been with us now for 33  years.
I know people do not want to say much about Jesus but he loves all of us and he died for us and if it were not for him we would all be dead as who is it that keeps your heart beating.
I have heard the saying that you are only 5 inches from death each day as that is how far, for most of us ,from our mouth down to our heart. God can heal and I am so glad that I know he can and not only that he can do all kinds of things for us.
