My brother was in a major car accident about 12 years ago. He was riding his bicycle across the street at night coming back to my house (in Franklin, MA), and was struck by a drunk driver. He broke his entire upper back and was sent into a coma for 3 months. It was so insane. No one ever thought that he would come out of it. He was in the intensive care unit of the hospital for almost a year. I was 12 years old.
Every person in my family tried to talk to him while in this coma, and one day he just opened his eyes. It was one of the most amazing things i've ever seen. Granted he was still extremely injured but the fact that he prevailed in a situation that no one thought could happen just presented a blatant miracle to every one who witnessed it.
From that moment when he opened his eyes, the music of Bob Marley aided him in his recovery. Somehow the positive music lifted my brothers spirits up and helped him recover to his fullest extent. He just listened to everything literally and used it as motivation to a full conquering of his accident.
The witnessing of this situation brought to my eyes the complete believeablity of a miracle happening in real life. It was one of the best things that ever happened to my family. i made all of us stronger, and brought everyone closer together.
