A Mothers Day Miracle: RACHEL'S BACK
Posted: Sun May 09, 2004 1:06 pm
How fitting that a young wife suffering from Cystic Fibrosis made her return to church today.
21, almost 22 year old Rachel Mayer came back to FBC Kissimmee this morning for the 11:00am service. This was her 1st time in church in well over 6 months.
Rachel has been in and out of hospitals since October as she has needed a double lung transplant. It was told that if Rachel did not receive it.. she would die.
Rachel got her transplant on February 23rd. I actually waved at Rachel today and she waved back. Didn't really say much because she is still covering her mouth and nose with a mask. {My guess is that is because she's either still afraid of infection or I really don't know..}
Rachel received a standing ovation and deserved it.
Her mother also got a standing ovation.
Rachel also stated her biggest step was when she got to sing 1 of our churches' hymns without feeling short of breath after the song.
Way to go Rachel!
