Hmmmm ...

A 14 year old boy falls through a frozen lake and is trapped underwater for 15 minutes. The child would not have fared so well in the middle of the summer.

There was a similar case in 1984. Frozen lake, long immersion, then unexpected survival said to be due to “mammalian diving reflex”. Boy recovered fully.

I, however, think that this was a miracle of God and it shows the power of prayer.

I experienced cold-water diving reflex twice as a child. Once jumped out of a canoe at age 9, wearing a life jacket, to get away from a brother who made me mad. My arms and legs became paralyzed from the cold and he had to tow me to shore.

A couple years later I jumped into a pond to retrieve a toy my youngest brother dropped in. Fifteen feet out to the toy, and I could not take a breath. Fifteen feet back to the dock and I could barely move my arms and legs. I was afraid I was going to die there.

You don’t have to go in head-first for the reflex to kick in. You just have to get your head wet.

Looks like I might have to go to the movie theater for this one (and thinking of seeing Apollo 11 this weekend - even tho’ it’s CNN connected). Not a fan of “Hollywood” either, but I try to support movies that I feel are worth watching.

Topher Grace = ‘That 70’s Show’

Dennis Haysbert = Best. President. Ever. EVER! on ‘24’ and the spokesman for Allstate. ;)

I’m looking forward to a Feel Good movie!

My family has seen through something very similar... Hundreds, if not thousands, praying brought my daughter from paralysis, blindness and brain damage to full health.

Tonight I helped God’s miracle with her college work.

God is real... I know... I’ve seen it.

Doctors can’t explain it... but I can...

Thank you Jesus.

My mom and I just watched the movie last night. We both liked it. It is at Redbox.

One Hollywood change to the true story is they made the world-renowned (white) doctor into a black man.
