On 8 December 2022, a bright and sunny morning at about 9.30am (US time), my family and I were making our way to Las Vegas after holidaying in Lake Tahoe when we had a car accident. We were making a turn into a side road to check our map, not knowing that it was a ditch covered by tall bushes. Our car plunged right into a nine-foot deep ditch, hit a sign board and came to a stop.

My son and my husband who were seated in front were not hurt but I was badly injured.  My collar bone, sternum, four left ribs and lower spine were fractured.  I was conscious but I couldn’t breathe or move. I just cried out to Jesus to save me.

The Lord provided many angels in the form of passersby to help us.  The driver in the car behind us called an ambulance and I was taken to Carson Valley Medical Centre. Because of the multiple fractures, though, I was then sent to the Renown Medical Hospital in Reno.  I was put in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) for observation.  I activated my friends and staff team to pray for me.

Just before going through the MRI scan, I was anxious about having to go through any surgery.  As I prayed, I felt a lightness come down over my heavy body and I knew that I was healed. God heard our prayers. The next day the orthopedic surgeon told me that there was no need for surgery, I just needed to wear a brace and continue to be monitored by a spine specialist back in Singapore. I stayed in the hospital for five days before flying to Los Angeles for the evacuation flight to Singapore. I was put in a business class seat so that I could lie down during the 16-hour flight home.

Back in Singapore, there were waves of healing when I was being prayed for.  After just four weeks of medical leave, I could go back to work. Today, I am able to resume all my daily routines. The doctor told me that it would take six months for the fractures to heal. In June 2023, I went to Perth and could move around with ease.  Indeed, I was completely healed. All glory to God!

After the accident, my son was traumatised and did not dare to drive again.  In December 2023, when we went for a family holiday in Japan, we decided to drive for a day to visit the different lakes in Gotemba. Praise God, after we prayed and encouraged him to drive again, he did. it was a breakthrough for my son.

We can truly testify that God is with us and He is good all the time.
