Traumatic Brain Injury Survivor Patti Foster Meets Jesus in Heaven

Episode 163 Published 3 years, 10 months ago

Description

Patti Foster unbuckled her seatbelt and turned around to check on some flowers in the trunk when the Chevrolet Tahoe she was riding in was rear-ended by a tractor-trailer rig going nearly 70 mph back in 2002. Patti was ejected like a missile out of the back right window of the vehicle and her mangled body lay lifeless on the highway as EMTs rushed to her rescue. She remained in a coma for six weeks and sustained severe brain damage, but while she was comatose, Patti says she went to heaven and met Jesus. “I knew his presence,” she shares. “I knew his voice.” Patti, who is now the Vice President of Hope After Brain Injury, also discusses her inspiring recovery from the devastating crash and what it was like to relearn basic functions like reading, writing, and even chewing.
