Miracle: My Son Was Born With Half a Heart, Now He's 10 | Dan Nichols | 091
Dan Nichols was 20 weeks into celebrating a baby boy when the doctor told him and his wife Joy, prepare to lose this baby.
Landon was born with hypoplastic left heart syndrome — functionally half a heart. Three open-heart surgeries: at 5 days old, at 6 months, and at 3 years. He flatlined twice. After the first, he spent more than 36 hours on ECMO.
In this episode of Coincidence or God? (formerly When You Look), Dan shares the full miracle testimony — what the doctors said when Landon came off ECMO, what happened in the minutes before the second flatline, and what he learned about God's provision when life actually goes through hell.
Today Landon is a healthy 10-year-old with only annual checkups. He says he isn't angry at God. And the prayer he prayed in his own words is one you won't forget.
Dan Nichols is a church planter, pastor, and leader of the Northeast Collaborative, a network helping launch healthy churches across the Northeast. He hosts the Dents in the Darkness podcast and writes the Making Scripture Simple study guides.
