God's Mercy

I hope that is alright to post this here but since I'm new I would love to tell you all of my experience with God.
On June 15 2014 I had been sick for several weeks and sometime during the wee hours of that morning I had to be taken to the hospital in an ambulance. By the time I got there I had become unconscious and my heart stopped. They had to hit me three times with the paddles to revive me. I had an infection that got into my bloodstream they called it septic. The doctors called my family in and only gave me a 5 percent chance of survival. I spent 29 days in intensive care and a total of 3 months in the hospital. During that time I had a total of 17 operations to remove infected tissue. I had to have all of the muscle in the back of my left leg removed from the hip to the knee along with several other operations on different parts of my body. I had to have a colostomy bag and still have it. When I got out of the hospital they sent me to a nursing home /rehab hospital to build me back up and I was there for two months. My family was told on numerous occasions I would not live over night and was also told that I would never walk again. I finally got to come home on November 17 and was in a wheel chair then a walker next was a cane and now I walk with only the aid of a leg brace. The doctors still tell me that I really should not be alive and they are not sure how I am able to walk but to me it was simple. I have had a personal relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ since 1980 and belong to him. I believe that He not only showed mercy on me but also has more for me to do and though the doctors did everything they could it was him that healed me. I am closer to him now than I have ever been and tell this story to all I can as a testimony to his love and power. Again I hope it is alright to post this here if not Admins please move or delete this as you feel fit.
