Bonnie Engstrom: Author of 61 Minutes to a Miracle, Fulton Sheen and a True Story of the Impossible.

from Catholic Women Now · host Julie Nelson and Chris Magruder

Bonnie shares the story of her son, James who was stillborn after a home birth. Rushed to the hospital, the prognosis was grim. After attempting to resuscitate him, the doctors decided no more could be done. Just as they stopped their efforts, James's heart began to beat. What laid ahead was organ failure, brain damage, and a life of special needs or even if he could even survive. Storming social media for prayers and seeking the intercession of Venerable Bishop Fulton Sheen, James today is a healthy normal boy. How do Bonnie and Travis share the glory of God and keep life normal for their family and their son? How does Bonnie process that their son lived while other parents do not receive this miracle? These are the questions we asked. Her humility and love for Jesus is a beautiful witness.
