When Dabney Hedegard was 25 years old, she was diagnosed with Hodgkin's Lymphoma after doctors discovered an 8-inch tumor embedded in her lungs. Six weeks pregnant, Dabney opted to forego chemotherapy until she had safely delivered the baby. This decision marked the beginning of a 10-year battle against cancer, cardiomyopathy, mitral valve prolapse, pulmonary embolism, acute pneumonia, kidney failure, respiratory failure, and heart failure. In each instance, Dabney was given less than a 30-percent chance of surviving, and twice, doctors told her husband, "She'll never make it through the night." But just when the medical community had given up hope, God intervened, miraculously snatching Dabney from death's doorstep--nine times. Part medical drama, part divine intervention, Dabney's extraordinary story is not only a fast-paced, emotional rollercoaster that will have you crying one moment and cheering the next, but it is also an indisputable testament to the sometimes mysterious--and always miraculous--power of prayer.
