A Miraculous Story of the Power of Perseverance, Prayer in Recovery
“Mended by God” is a story of prayer, perseverance, recovery, rehabilitation, hope and triumph. It is Tony Pack’s miraculous account of his recovery after a closed head injury left him in a deep coma as a result of a near death auto accident. Tony was twenty-four years old, athletic, ready for college, with plans to major in the filed of law. The accident left Tony with a dismal prognosis. His family determinedly held to their faith in God and looked for a miracle.
During Tony’s recovery and therapy he was blessed with a support team of prayer warriors, his family, his pastor, hospital chaplains, members, as well as countless friends and members of the medical profession.
The sixty pages of photos and a detailed one year journal faithfully kept by Tony’s mother Carol relate the events from that fateful day in 1986. Carol kept a day by day account of Tony’s progress throughout the trials of his three month coma, his recovery, and his rehabilitation.
“Mended by God” is filled with helpful information for anyone working through similar trials. The story is an uplifting and inspiring testimony of God’s grace. It tells of the highs and lows of recovery and of day to day miracles. This is a book for anyone going through the challenge of meeting the difficulties faced in time of the sickness of a child, a son or daughter injured in battle, other times of family crisis, unemployment, or the loss of a loved one. Smarto beautifully weaves the story of how family love and a strong faith played an important part in Tony’s healing. These lessons provide spiritual guidance for others going through the testing of adversity.
Strong writing with a powerful message.
