For nearly two weeks, Jill remained unconscious while Ryan stayed by her side, prayed, and read passages from a Bible left by a relative. Eventually, doctors told him they did not expect her condition to improve, and Ryan made the painful decision to remove life support.
About five hours later, Jill unexpectedly began moving and speaking. A nurse called Ryan back into the room, where Jill clearly told him she wanted to leave the hospital and go home. She correctly answered questions about their pets and even asked about going to her favorite restaurant.
Jill survived but needed rehabilitation to relearn basic tasks such as brushing her teeth and tying her shoes. Ryan described her recovery as divine intervention, while the couple came away from the experience with a much deeper appreciation for their time together.
